guys, my wife's case just got approved yesterday, and we found the result when doing regular check to her MyCIC account. Since my wife's holding a visa-exempt passport, does she still need to mail out the passport? Or CIC will directly mail out her CoPR?
Congratulations! You'll get an email/letter telling you what to do next and it will include the below information. Please note I haven't pasted the whole letter but excerpts
If you do not require a visa to enter Canada:
· Please submit one photocopy of the photo page and any pages containing amendments of the passport for you and one for each accompanying family member. Do NOT submit your original passport.
· Ensure that your passport is valid for at least 12 months from the date of this letter.
· Please note that you cannot use a Diplomatic, Official or Military passport to travel to Canada to become a permanent resident of Canada. You must be in possession of an ordinary passport.
Please note: if you or your accompanying family members are permanent residents of the U.S.A and a holder of a passport which requires a visa to enter Canada, you are still required to submit your passport(s).
