What is the difference between the 2 types of PPR? Is there one better than the other? This is really confusing with Manila VO.

The first PPR is when the e-mail includes a visa validity date and specifically says "Your visa(s) for permanent residence to Canada is/are ready to be issued. Your visa(s) will be valid for your initial entry to Canada until (yyyy/mm/dd)."
This assumes that the decision is made and visa is ready.

The second PPR is when the e-mail only says "At the end of this document is a request for additional documentation required within 30 days. In order to continue processing your application, we require the following information and/or documents..."
Nothing is said about the visa. This type of PPR is done at the beginning of the file transfer.

hello i think the 1st one is much better because they are done doing background check and the 2nd ppr state that they will request your passport so they can proceed to the next step.
