Hello vermas...
1. As yesterday u have seen change in ecas to DM from in process so u shld expect ppr soon......bt how long it can't be predicted.....frm the scenario of 2015 applicants u can hope to get it in a day or one week or within one month......according to 2014 applicants,one of the member received ppr aftr six months frm DM ......keep ur fingers crossed..
(Jus an info...plz dont get panic......)so hope for the best n keep praying to get it asap.....ur last leap is onn..so be patient n expect fr the best.....
2. They gv 30 days to submit ur passport to them n u get it back in max one week's time....
3. Passport cant be submitted to NDVO....they dont entertain hand deliveries except in the case which priya.k mention that if u r requested to do so then only u can go to submit passport directly to NDVO and in that case u vil receive first a phone call fr ppr n followed by email request..according to my experience n knowledge i doubt u will get such call coz NDVO call ppl fr urgent passport thru hand delivery incase of shrt time fr medical expiry cases.....VFS is the third party who delivers passport to ndvo n i guess the only way to send passport safely ......so incase u gt ppr email so u hv to go thru vfs n can't submit passport directly.....or send to ottawa fr stamping if ur wife is with u in Canada according to the instruction gvn in ur ppr email....
I hope this helps....i hope u receive ur ppr today or by this week.....
God bless you...best wishes.....
Cheers
