Please let me know what we need to keep ready for PPR... i am putting a list below-do let me know if i miss something:

1. 3 photographs(3.5X4.5 cm) for each family member -mention date photo taken & name on back of one photo for each member (do we need to mention anything else?)
2. Passports
3. Return Express USPS mail envelope
4. Have read in few old posts that we need to write height & eyes color on some document....haven't been able to find that plus we need to sign some agreement on passport return- cudn't find that either....can we get a copy of that somewhere?

Is there anything i am missing here....thanks!!
Thanks for reminding abt barcode!
I had saved old post and it says: "Please make a copy of the pages you got in mail and don't forget to complete the address and sign in the authorization page(2 times) while sending these along with passports. And also on one page you have to give family members details. "

Another post: " Documents: Passports of all family members, fees, 4 photos of each family member(see special instruction for photos in the PPR documents) that form where u have to write hight and eye color of each family m ember and sign authorization form for visa."

These r old posts and i can't find them now....i had copied & pasted these posts in Word doc..... while i see no one mentioning abt this in recent posts.
Do they still ask for this authorization etc?

Hi virgos,

I need to do my medicals in IL. Which doctor did you see and how much they charged and after medical when did they send your results to
ottawa.

Please help.

Thanks
Lee.


virgos said:
I am starting to research the medical process, looking at timelines from some other posts...expect my AOR in a few days...

I need to get medical done at Chicago (IL)....because there are no DMPs in Indiana.....

the two DMPs in IL listed on CIC website are Dr. Serafin Veramendi & Dr Boguslaw Chmiel.....

Who is the better of the two ? fee ? submission of medicals ?
