Hi.....I just received great news that my application has been approved!
Super Excited.... but now I have a critical question:

Once they receive the passports, how long is it taking the CPP-Ottawa office in sending them back?

I appreciate the forum help on this....and good luck to the ones still waiting!

Thanks
Javier

Dear all, after a stressful wait of 14 months, I finally received the PRPF and Biodata request today, however, there is a small glitch in it. They have indicated my indian address in the mail while I am currently in Canada. I have updated my address for communication on the CIC website (but didnt send any mail to OTT Pilot) thinking that it will get automatically updated.

Now the questions;

1. Should I send a mail to ottpilot indicating that my address is in Canada now? wait for their reply and then pay PRPF?

2. Should I pay PRPF and send the receipt and Bio data to CPP without waiting for the OTTPilot mail?

Your help is much appreciated.

I got RPRF request and paid it online, how long does it usually takes for COPR and PPR from the date of RPRF request?

P.S - Looks like I am one among the few left in December 2012 applicant category as I hardly see any updates here... ;D

I have a very similar timeline. Still awaiting PPR
Does your ECAS say that your medical results have been received?
