courier service for sending the application:

I believe they have different option to send a parcel or big envelop.

So I wonder how did you send you application ...
is there a special name for it ... or do they send all there parcels and letters the same way?

Express, or normal, tracking number for sure and .... and the office have to sign the delivery I believe this has to happen always if send by courier?

stupid question? sorry :(

if you are in Canada, you can send with express parcel from Canada post .

outside Canada, can mail via DHL or UPS or post office (fastest shipping method )

just make sure you have a tracking number.
and if you have a big /heavy package to send, I would put in the box instead of sending within envelope. (or put envelope in box)

hope it helps.

I used expresspost. I showed the lady my document package and asked which bubble envelope I can put it in. She pointed the biggest bubble envelope.

Didn't request signature as you can track your package.

keep the receipt (your tracking number on it)
as long as you can track your package on Canada post, thats fine.

I used fed ex. Mine was three envelopes that I put in a fed ex box. I did track it and it was there in one day, from the USA. I had a choice of one day or two day delivery and it was only ten dollars more for one day.

Just make sure you pay the extra for an international courier and tracking number if you are outside Canada.

I went with Singapore Post's registered airmail service thinking it was equivalent. Yes I got a tracking number, but what they didn't tell me was that their tracking "stops" once it reaches Canada and they hand it off to Canada Post. All I know now is that my package arrived in Canada on February 2nd, and I have received no AOR yet. Singapore Post is now contacting Canada Post to get verification of delivery, but this waste of time - and more importantly stress - could have all been avoided if I paid $30 more and went with DHL, UPS, or FedEx.

You can still track it. Go to canada post tracking and enter your Singapore tracking #. If it was accepted by canada post it will give you details of delivery.

Already tried, no luck. Singapore Post is contacting Canada Post now to confirm it actually was delivered but they tell me it can take Canada Post up to 2 months to respond. My biggest fear is that it was lost somehow.

Moral of this story: don't take ANY chances. This package is too important to skimp on the delivery, which is as if not more important than any of the document gathering.
