And here is what the Word Document attachment says:
Dear [My name]
Your application has reached the final stage of processing. Now that Step 1 has been completed, you must now complete Step 2 so that your permanent resident visa(s) can be issued.
Step 2: Submit the following to the Visa Application Centre (VAC) in Riyadh (not to our London office):
1. Your passport and a passport for each accompanying family member. The passports must be the same as the photocopies submitted to London in Step 1. If you have obtained new passports, then you must start again from Step 1. (Do not submit passports for accompanying family members who are entitled to Canadian citizenship because they will have to travel on their Canadian passports.)
2. Two recent photographs of yourself and two recent photographs of each of your accompanying family members. The photos must meet the Photo Specifications as detailed below.
SUBMISSION AND RETURN OF PASSPORT(S)
Please refer to the “Passport Transmission Services” section of the VAC website for details on how to submit your package for secure transmission and for issuance of the permanent resident visa(s).
www.vfsglobal.ca/canada/saudiarabia/index.html
You should expect to be without your passport(s) for four weeks, so do not arrange any travel that will require your passport(s) during this period.
If you have not heard from us after four weeks, you may contact the London office using the email form on our website. Please send all enquiries regarding this application to the London office (not the Riyadh office).
Sincerely,
Immigration Section
What you should know
You should not take any irrevocable action such as selling your property, quitting your job, or buying plane tickets until you have received your passport(s) and permanent resident visa(s).
Your visa(s) will be issued to match the information in your passport(s). This will be the name that appears on all of your documents after you become a permanent resident of Canada (e.g. driver’s license, social insurance card, health card).
If your family composition has changed (e.g. by marriage, divorce, birth, death), you must tell us now. You must also tell us if it changes before the date of your intended departure. Information in our systems must be up to date and considered before anyone can be granted permanent resident status on arrival.
Your visas will expire one year after the date of your medical examinations. However, if your passport or any of your family members’ passports are due to expire before this date, all visas will expire on the date that the first passport expires. You must enter Canada on or before the expiry date on your visas.
The validity of a permanent resident visa cannot be extended, nor can a replacement visa be issued with a new expiry date. If you do not use your visa(s) before the expiry date, yet still wish to immigrate to Canada, you will have to begin the application process again, and pay new fees. The new application would be assessed according to the immigration legislation in force at the time of submission.
Photograph Specifications
Notes to the applicant
Two recent photos are required for each person.
Write your file number and the name of each person on the back of their photos. Do not use a ball-point pen. Wait until the ink dries before stacking the photos on top of each other.
The photos must not be damaged or blemished.
Do not staple, glue or pin the photos. Instead, they can be paper-clipped or enclosed in a small envelope.
These photo specifications are NOT the same as passport photo specifications.
Notes to the photographer
The two photographs must:
show a full front view of the person’s head and shoulders, showing their full face centred in the middle of the photograph;
have a plain white background;
be identical (black & white or colour) - produced from the same untouched negative, or exposed simultaneously by a split-image or multi-lens camera;
be produced on single weight matte paper;
measure between 25mm and 30mm (1" and 1 1/5") from chin to crown (see diagram);
have a finished size of 35mm x 45mm (1 3/8" and 1 3/4") (see diagram).
;D
(so in the same boat 
)
