I am Oct 24 applicant and still did not hear anything. I have submitted my passport to ndvo in dec 2013.
Also my passport will expire in April 2015. In general, If I want to apply for renewal of my passport, how many months before i need to apply?
Will this effect my application? Please advise me.

i think in the application they ask for passport that has validity atleast for 6 months...is your status 'in process'?
 
Day 15 since DM! What's takin these ppl soooooooooooooo long?
I'm getting more worried! My meds expire in 12 days time!

Upasana, Have you tried emailing them? Perhaps since your case is in DM, they may respond.

Also, i dont think they mail out the passport immediately after DM. Perhaps, after DM, the visa gets affixed (2-3 days), then goes to mailroom (1 day), regd post from Delhi to Madras (min 7 days). I think your PP should be in your hand by 28th July.

You can apply for the renewal of passport within one year before the date of expiry. If visa is issued by NDVO latest before 6 month say September you can use the same passport when your Visa for PR is issued and you can get it renewed from Canada. Otherwise NDVO will send the passport to you asking to get it renewed. At that time get it renewed under tatkal. As per the current trend there should be movement in your file and your visa should be issued well before September All the best

Even under Tatkal you have to submit the old passport to Passport Centre....

Tried mailin them... no reply yet.. its been 4 days since I sent the mail.

Even tried callin their call centre in canada. They hav absolutely no clue abt the files once it's transfered to delhi...called the Indian number also.. They said they wouldn't disclose anything abt the passport or whether the visa is approved or not thru the phone. They said be patient you ll hear something soon!

Is their any other option I could try?

Hey upasanagovind dont worry . You will get your passport in 1 or 2 days. My decision was made on 19 July. I am also waiting for my passport. Yesterday i had called at their customer care number at Delhi. One lady picked it up, initially she had said the same wording what you were told, then she said you will get your passport in 2 or 3 days after decision made. I think NDVO must has extended the validity of your medical. My medical is valid till 20 August as per the GCMS notes. If i dont get my passport till next week then i shall find some other alternate....
Just relax and be positive....

hi wait_game,
is this program CIIP funded by CIC ONLY FOR FSW applicants?

hey rk sandhu,
don't worry, generally after rem-meds it takes a month or so to get DM...u know it sooner or later the visa is yours...so take care n enjoy pampering in india...

Yes its absolutely free of cost and fantastic 1 full days program for all those who want to pursue job in their own field. All you have to do is register yourself with resume and medical letter or any email from NDVO.

oh please dont worry abt that....in med-reassessment,there is no need for blood/urine sample.....in ur case,they just need latest xray in order to extend the validity of your medical for another one year..
yeah thank u dear..hope we all got DM soon

Hi everyone. Huge OMG. My husband didn't want me to say anything until he landed. He's kind of superstitious. But he got a call to collect visa on the 15. They extended medicals until 25th. I wanna say thanknyu for all the help of old and new members. This forum kept us from going crazy. And could someone update the spreadsheet for me I don't wanna mess it up. Thx everyone!
