Congrats！Your DM to landing was real quick! didnt you have to sent in your passport?
I have edited my personal information.You can check the timeline now by clicking the "click to expand ".
Thank you! We didn't receive a passport request and got the COPR straight. Apparently this is the case for countries with visa exempt status to Canada?
Mind if I ask if the COPR is sent via registered mail? Or simply sent to your email account? Thanks.
anybody got any news from from the HK office lately？ The document HKVO requested from me was received on sept 13th according from the courier, but havent heard from them since.
It will be indicated on your request letter (or email):
Immigration Section
Consulate General of Canada
8/F, Berkshire House,
25 Westlands Road,
Quarry Bay, Hong Kong
Call to book an appointment, it will be faster. I was in and out in under 15min.
FYI normally, HK Police will require you to present the request letter with your name and the immigration authority's address on it. My first email request did NOT have an address, so I emailed the EO at HK Police, who told me I can simply supply the address if it's not on the letter. Note that this is not the same experience as some others have had. So your mileage may vary!
In any case, I uploaded a letter of explanation that I needed a letter with an address and that the PCC will be sent to CIC. When my ase was sent to HKVO, I received the request letter with address.
Hope this helps!
oh, i asked HK Police to send to Mississauga. Do you think I should request one to send to HK office?
Wouldn't hurt, except for a few extra bucks spent.
To be honest, I can't say for sure if the one sent to Mississauga is fine or not. And I'm not entirely sure if there's any way you can find out. Can try contacting CIC to see... takes about 3 weeks for HK Police to send it out, plus whatever time it takes to arrive by registered post.
But I suspect CIC would send you a request for additional documents if it's not received?
In any case, I guess you need to upload something to them, like your HK PCC receipt and a letter explaining what this is.
