Ok, first of all, it might take more than 6 months, way more so just pace yourself. Might not, but it's better to be prepared to wait.Hi guys,
Any expert can help? Regarding Post-AOR process, in case all documents are checked and approved, what's next?
"If everything goes fine, you will get a Passport Request (PPR) and a Decision Made (DM) within 6 months of submission of complete application.
You can submit your passport (along with dependents’ passport, if they are accompanying you to Canada) at the nearest VFS??. They will send your passport to the embassy and deliver your passport back to you after the stamping is done. You will get a Confirmation of Permanent Residence (COPR) letter along with your passport that is stamped with the Maple Leaf Visa Smiley . You need to carry BOTH your passport(with the stamped visa) and the COPR when you are travelling to Canada."
Can I choose the VFS or it is indicated by CIC? Thanks for giving more details on this stage of the process
To answer your question, it's recommended to use VFS for sending the passport but you can also send via a prepaid return envelope from FedEx or DHL or whatever available. VFS is authorized by CIC so it's much more trustworthy. Very slow, but trustworthy..
