How long does it take CPP-O to stamp PR visas?

No update for me. Passport received feb 21 and no reply to my 'urgent' emails. Starting to lose hope that I will be able to meet my commitments which require travellung to the USA next week. My MP will inquire for me (their office replied to me 1 day after I contacted them). Hope that shaking my cage will do something.

At least they acknowledged they have my passports.. ;D

"We have received your passport and your application is currently in queue to be finalized. Please note that we are unable to estimate the remaining processing time required for your application.

If you have included a prepaid Xpresspost return envelope, your passport will be returned using this envelope. If you have followed the instructions on the website and kept note of the tracking number, you should be able to follow its delivery on the Canada Post website.

If you did not provide a prepaid Xpresspost return envelope, your passport has been returned to you by regular mail."

Thanks

You can google 'mp riding' to find the contact of your elected member of parliament (can search with your postal code if you don't know the name of your riding). They are 'our voice' even if technically we don't vote yet... But they know we will eventually. I needed to sign a consent for them to inquire on my behalf with the immigration ministry and sent them two copy of ID. You can't ask them if you had an immigration lawyer working with you.
Apparently they get answers as there is a special office in Ottawa that solely deal with MPs. Curious to know how long they have to wait to get info. The person I spoke to did not seem surprised of the delays and lack of replies, so I assume they deal with immigration often for similar issues. They also enter the information in a database, so maybe this acts as a 'complaint' process.

Hope this helps

Thank you, I already googled and found the name of my MP, I didn't have a lawyer. I will send an email and explain my situation, I am getting desperate here, so why not try this...

syed_h_sha,

I read in the previous posts from you that CPP-O said something like they have not reached to your correspondence yet. Did you email them after that? Any reply? I am in the same boat
I sent another mail last Friday and waiting for their reply. I am not sure what to do. its been 6 weeks and they do not confirm the receipt of the package.

YAHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, I received my PP by mail today, I didnt send any return envelope and It came by Regular Canada Post envelope, It took exactly 4 working days to arrive from Canada to US from the time they sent me email on 27th March. I am glad my PP is back with me and safe, eventhough it caught littlebit Dust sitting in CPP-O warehouse ( just kidding)....
I am sure all the applicants whose tracker was activated yesterday and before should receive their PP latest by Friday ...Big cheeerrrs and congratz!! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
Great! ;D ;D ;D I'm happy for you, rajkatak.
And thank you for good news - 4 days is very ok, I thought it's taking around 10. ;D
