Hi there,
175 days from AOR June 1, 2018...
I am getting closer to the one year deadline from the medical exam, taken on February 4, 2018, so I would need to land in Canada before February 4, 2019, and I am still in IP1. The medical was taken that early because between February and June 2018 I applied and got rejected for a missing translation of a transcript, that's why I applied a second time with AOR in June.
Anyway, my question is about instructions for passport submission in order not to lose time when/if the PRR email arrives.
I am an Italian citizen, resident in Paraguay.
I don't know if they are going to ask me to send the passport to the Canadian Embassy in Rome or the one in Buenos Aires (there's no embassy in paraguay). I contacted both embassies in Rome and Buenos Aires but they don't know about my application, they both said everything is still handled in Canada.
I contacted people at
https://www.vfsglobal.ca/Canada/argentina/ about guidelines for submission but they said they do not handle passport submission for permanent residents, only for other visas.
Does anybody have clear guidelines for submission? If it should be done with DHL, Fedex, etc... or where else.
Also, do you think going in person to give the passport at the embassy and explaining the short time left for landing in Canada will help avoid losing weeks of precious time of delivery to the embassy and back to me?
Thanks in advance... and fingers crossed for all...
