Here is what they instructed me in my first AOR:

Beginning April 1, 2010, residents and citizens of Pakistan wishing to apply under the economic class will submit their applications to the Canadian High Commission in London, United Kingdom for processing instead of Islamabad, Pakistan.

You are therefore requested to submit a complete application to the LONDON visa office.


Where CIO instructed to send your Full Documents?

I believe, it's London, United Kingdom....

So please mention "London, United Kingdom" in Requested Visa Office.

Seniors please comment.

From: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/pdf/kits/guides/EG7.pdf --> Page 21


Visa Office requested for the processing of your application: You must select and write the name of the Visa Office which serves:
  • your country of nationality; or
    the country in which you are residing, provided that you have been lawfully admitted to that country for at least one year.
Important
Do not select the CIO in Sydney. If you do, your application will be returned to you and you will need to reapply.
Do not select a visa office that does not serve a country as described above. If you do, your application will be returned to you by the visa office and you will have to reapply.

I hope this clear the things a bit more.

BUT, still I would request SENIORS to clarify this.

Ashraf, Please read the instructions in guide carefully and WAIT for Seniors reply on this before you PROCEED.

Thanks,
Saim
