TCS does charge you in advance for passport return charges so don't worry about that. As far as your PP is concerned, you sent it to the office address instead of the mailing address, but as long as it was received by Nasir, you shouldn't worry too much since either Nasir or Shamoon usually receive the mail. Now did you send them a cover letter to why you are sending your passport without PPR. (i.e. as recommended by Visa officer who conducted your interview) + did you put down your file number as well?

Ok I sent my re-pcc and it was received by Kashif :s

Well, have you received any request whatsoever? If not then the first email is sent by mistake. It should've have been 'queue for initial review'.

You can buy ticket now for later dates. Inshallah, I will be visiting Pakistan in December(which is the high season) but i bought the ticket in June, it cost me $1420 return ticket (KHI-YYZ-KHI)....its just a thought

In my wife's case I only sent extra supporting documents once before the initial review, then after initial review I ordered CAIPS and in there the marriage was considered genuine so then I never updated them with email, call logs etc as I thought, it wasn't needed. So yeah it worked out for me in the end anyways.
That's what I have experienced in my case too. But I would like to add something to it.

Do not stop collecting proofs at any stage. Even after your initial review or medical examination is over, it is recommended to not to send them extra proofs voluntarily but keep collecting all the proofs which may help them to determine that your relationship is genuine and ongoing (E-mails, call records, gift receipts, money transfers and all that crap). I made a folder on my desktop for CHC and kept on collecting further proofs, as you never know what kind of non sense request they send you at extremely odd stage but that is least expected. But preparing for everything is not a bad idea at all.

They never sent any request to my wife (its my wife's case) . In response of email sent in Jan 2011, to find about the file number, as AOR never received, got the following response

"Your application is currently in process and is in queue for initial review. "

after that i sent three emails but never got any reply not even acknowledgement emails. Only thing happened was, two weeks back Address disappeared and came back three days ago.
I would say the best time to send extra supporting documents is after 6-7 months of your file transfer to Islamabad. Order CAIPS after 11-12 months even if you are not sure whether your initial review has been done. It never hurts to see an empty page :)

Well yeah thats what I meant! If you want to land before Sept 17 its quite high, and after Sept 17 the prices go down a little bit :) So I am in process of booking something right now for after mid sept.
