Hello @legalfalcon and everyone. IRCC asks me to submit additional documents within 30 days. How those days are calculated? Are these 30 calendar days which include weekends, local VO holidays etc or these are 30 business days?

30 days include holidays and weekends. E.g. if you received ADR on Oct 01st then the deadline would be Oct 30th.

Thanks a lot for the prompt response @legalfalcon. I'll be grateful for your suggestion on another confusion point which is about sending photos for COPR.

My dependent family members only need an eTA to travel to Canada, therefore only need to submit their documents and photos directly to Embassy as opposed to VFS like me (principal applicant).

But I am confused with instruction letter, if I need to send my photos as well to the Embassy along with my family members, since I'm principal applicant or I shall submit my photos along with my documents to VFS and only my family member's photos along with their document package?

Regards

Hello @legalfalcon and everyone, please help to figure out how to act correctly in such a situation.

On October 11, IRCC requested a Police Certificate and Schedule A, the deadline is November 10.
On October 12, we issued a request for Police Certificates, on October 13 we received a notification that the request was registered.
So 30th calendar day will come on November 11, therefore we definitely won't be able to provide PCC by deadline.

There are 4 active "Upload File" buttons for Police Certificate and Schedule A on the website cic.gc.ca in our account in the "Documents submitted by the client". Required by is November 10.

We have prepared Schedule A, attached a Cover letter on the first page of the pdf, where we are explaining that won't be able to provide PCC by deadline, and asking for extra time.

1) What happens if we upload Schedule A with Cover letter to the website, click Next and Sign? Will the PCC upload buttons become inactive?

2) The following text is provided at the top of the "Documents submitted by the client" page:
"If you do not send the requested document by the deadline, the status will change to "Overdue" and you will not be able to submit the document. We will review your application without the requested document."

What does this mean in practice? Will PCC upload buttons really become inactive?
Then what should I do next, how to send PCC to the IRCC when they will be ready?

3) There is an idea to send a web form explaining that we won't be able to provide PCC by deadline.
What do you think is the best time to do it - right before the deadline of November 10? Or can I do it now?

@legalfalcon

I am in a situation. I received an information letter from CIC, asking me to submit the Passport to New Delhi vias office or report the change in circumstances with 30 day time limit for passport submission to New Delhi.

PNP Outland
AOR : 01-JAN-2021
Medical Passed : 09-FEB-2021
Re-Medical Passed : 16-DEC-2021
Moved to UK on Work Permit: 15-APR-2022 (both me and my spouse)
PPR : 22-JUL-2022

Problem: I had requested the visa office to update my COR, but they haven't done so yet. I have a planned travel for Portugal in early September so my passport is with the VFS for visa stamping. I would need the passport to travel to portugal as well. I have informed the change in circumstances to the IRCC, but reply is expected in 28 days. I am in a pickle right now, as I have to send the passport to IRCC New Delhi for visa Stamping, but I don't have my passport with me.

Questions:
1. Shouldn't IRCC update my COR and visa office from New Delhi to London, United Kingdom, after latest information update using webform?
2. If they don't extend my passport submission window, what are my options?

Thanks in advance!!
Hi there,

How did you resolve the issue ? I am currently having the same issue. I had moved to the US and requested change of address using the Webform after I moved, but when I checked my GCMS notes, the address has been updated, but they haven't changed CoR so my case is now assigned to NDVO. I don't want to be in the situation where I get passport request form NDVO and then not be able to submit it.

Hi everyone,
Would like your help please.

this is the message we got:

In order to continue processing your immigration application, or the application of your relative in Canada, you and the following persons are required to attend an interview at the location, date and time
indicated below:

Interview IRCC:
Myself (Canadian citizen)
Husband

Please bring the following original documents:

UCI number - Husband:

Schedule A: A separate and newly completed Schedule A Background
Declaration form (IMM 5669) bearing an original signature This must be received at this office by

Rental/Lease Agreement: Rental or Lease Agreement

Question is, am I suppose to fill one out as well? what is the interview about if they are only requesting for his information? Is this a good final last step of the process?

So I did not submit the utility bills, since my brother stays in a rented apartment and does not have any utility bills on his name.

Can you tell me which utility bills have you submitted?
Hey how did you reply to this request as I am in a similar situation. What documents will work instead of utility bills?
