Does anyone know if someone gets a Passport Request (via email) so can he/she submit their passport within canada? (since I'm already here on TRV) or I must travell to Pakistan for further process.

Also does anyone here sent there Passport anywhere else except Islamabad embassy?
those of you who already have received passport request, could you please share that PPR email excluding your personal information? I wanna see if theres is anything they mention of submitting passport outside Islamabad?

Thanks
Salam, if someone you trust you can send it by courier to them. Then onward to Islamabad. They can send it to you but most people return and send it themselves. You could call the call centre in Canada. But I think its better to find these things out before hand... In Sha Allah and Congratulations

Unfortunately, the applicant will have to return to the country of origin.

There is no other embassy that will stamp visa instead of CHC-Islamabad.

You can't mail your passport from another country (Canada) to Pakistan. It is not accepted.
You can send it with someone who is coming to Pakistan and send it onward to Islamabad!! If you trust them enough with it..........In Sha Allah...

Others have done this!

Hello

I have an urgent question. I am a Canadian citizen and gave birth to a baby in Canada few days ago AH. I have also sponsored my husband from pakistan since july 2012.
I emailed CHC to ask what additional documents to submit after birth and this is their response.

As you can read below, it says "You must submit a new application form including this new dependent on the applicant's form for permanent resident." But the baby is born Canadian citizen, do i still have to submit a new application form and which application form would that be? can someone please guid me?
And would the baby be undergoing medical examination?

Thanks a lot

"Dear Sir / Madam,

This is in response to your enquiry.

A new dependent can be added during the processing of an application. You must submit a new application form including this new dependent on the applicant's form for permanent resident.

In order to add the child to an application for permanent residence at this office, we require the following documents:

· processing fee for your child (if accompanying you to Canada)

· your child's birth certificate

· copy of your child's valid passport

· 4 recent photographs of your child

· updated IMM0008 Generic for yourself and updated IMM5406 “Additional Family Information” form for yourself and your spouse.

· a “Certificat de Sélection du Québec” for your child ( in his or her name), if you wish to immigrate to the province of Québec (http://www.micc.gouv.qc.ca/fr/index.asp)

Copies of the original documents with original certified translations into English or French are required. All documents must be sent by mail.

Your child must undergo a medical examination. Be aware that even non-accompanying dependents must undergo medical examinations.

Application forms and photo specifications are available on our Web site: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/pdf/kits/guides/3901e.pdf

Please note that the eligibility of new dependents will be assessed by the visa officer.

Yours sincerely,
Where was the baby born? Canada or Pakistan?

Salam our case is in Islamabad and since they took his Pass Port no news yet In Sha Allah...
They know my Visa is done soon so praying they will be done with the Back Ground Check soon
In Sha Allah...
I'm contacting SCIS today to find out and I also know an RCMP Division in Ottawa to see what the heck is taking so long..... I'm fed up and want to choke someone!!!!!

May Allah forgive me but this makes no darn sense at all...It will be 4 years were waiting next month!

Salam, when is your baby due for delivery? You must send documents that you are expecting so this child will be included on your file. It does not make this child a Canadian Citizen unless his father is a Canadian Citizen. This child when born must also have a file made and then a photo Pass Port. Some places will not take a Pass Port Photo unless the baby is one or 2 months old as it can cause blindness.
Just because you are expecting CIC has no feeling or emotions when it comes to Immigration they follow the rules accordingly. Just file the documents so this child will be included in your file. If you don't CIC will not allow this child entry into Canada. I'm sorry but its to the Law of The Land..I hope all works out well for you In Sha Allah
