I submitted on 17 Apr, VFS Hyderabad, received at IRCC, New Delhi on 23rd

My CIC profile got updated yesterday as approved and today I got a message from VFS that my passport has been couriered to me.
Congrats! Same dates but I haven’t received any update.
Did you receive email when CIC account changed to approved or do we need to check our accounts?

Hi guys,

I received my ready for visa email. But it says to submit documents at VfS India and should reach Delhi office in 30 days. But I am in US. The web form submitted to ircc post ita for change of address reflects this new US address.
Can I send my passport directly to CPC Ottawa? That's what the agent said but have no instructions how I do it.. anybody from US sent their passport to Canada?
Any help would be great.

Thanks in advance..

Hello there,
My husband recently submitted his passport on April 23rd at Banglore VFS office. Reached Delhi VAC on April 24th and sent to IRCC on the same day stating in process. We frequently track through VFS website, but since April 7th it indicated no record found. I contacted VFS office and they indicated the passport is still in process at IRCC. I have also checked through GCKEY and now the background check is in process and nothing changed on the final decision, which is a bit confusing:confused:. Anyways its been about 16 days for us.. still waiting for a positive result... will keep you all posted if any update :)

Hi. My ' ready for Visa' doc said to submit in UAE. But I moved to India shortly after my AoR and intimated CIC as well. So I just wrote to vic about this, and meanwhile went to VFS with all the documents. They accepted it as is. I am still waiting on getting my passport back though. I can keep u posted on that.

I am in similar situation, I was asked to submit passport to High Commission in Singapore though I updated IRCC that I moved to India in Mar'19

I submitted the passport photo to VFS-Chennai on Apr 5th and is under process at IRCC from April 10th as per the VFS tracker status. Well it overshadows the fact I received PPR email in 3 months and 1 week !

Yup. But based on my research we thought we gonna receive within two weeks and have two weeks gap.
But again IRCC is something different.
Already working on the postponing the travel plan. May wait until this weekend
Hi

I submitted passport on April 5th to VFS-Chennai , received at IRCC on April 10th and is still under process, booked tickets for May 14th which is close to 1.5 month from submission and still expecting the passport !
I have already written twice to Canada High Commission - Delhi, don't think its a good idea to pursue further, !

Well I hope to know what is happening with the passport, but I could attribute to only the fact I submitted the documents in India (VFS-Chennai), could be its routed from High Commission in Delhi to Canada High Commission in Singapore, guess !

else it is overload of applications at New Delhi !

FYI, am currently in India
