I have few imp and urgent question regarding COPRs, please let me know as soon as possible.

it is clearly mentioned that " if name, passport number, expiry date, date of birth and validity date is incorrect , immediately email to concerned embassy office"

In My CORPs....

1) my child height is different than i sent them in the last document in "Appendix A" .
2) my child eye color is different then i sent them in the last document in "Appendix A" .

so is it important to send them email about this or just should i ignore it becoz it is mentioned "" if name, passport number, expiry date, date of birth and validity date is incorrect , immediately email to concerned embassy office"... this is nothing about eye color or height... ?

what should i do. reply as soon as possible please

thanks

Guys,

Thanks to Almighty Allah, I have received passport submission request from LVO but there are couple of queries on which I need experts opinion (zain, Islamabad786, Ahmed, nioo anyone else)

1. Please tell me VFS VAC center location (in Karachi) as I heard they are not located near Bahria Complex anymore. Also tell me how did you entered details in Appendix A electronically. Any other info/help like parking, best time to reach there would be appreciated too.

2. Important One - I haven't done my degree evaluation from any of the authorized body WES/ICAS and need to know is it very important to be completed (for job) before moving or is it a good to have in Canada

Thanks
Congratulation brother when you gone through medical.......I have gone through medical with family on 29 Oct....and no news till today ....no online updates or calls Allah knows my medical is clear or not.......

nioo,

Thanks for your input. Any reason you opted for ICAS after arriving in Canada, did any employer asked you about it or any person suggested you for it?

My re-medical happened on 10th Sep (in Karachi) but I guess it would have been cleared. Frankly speaking I was also in the same state of dilemma as you are today, checking emails everyday and not getting it. I know its very annoying, frustrating etc. etc. but I would suggest you to forget about it till 45 days so you get out of that frustration and I would pray to Allah that you get Passport submission email as early as possible.

Careeredge asked me for Icas in order to register with them. Later they didnt need that. Having Icas is good some employers prefer it but not necessary. For comtinuing education you will need that.Dont worry about it.

Ahmad;

You will get response in 3 weeks time... hang tight... All you need to prepare is

1. Photos for you and family - you can go to shoppers or walmart and have it taken as per the instructions provided.
2. Fill out the family information form - which by now you'd have filled out countless time...
3. Make sure your passport is valid enough for near future
4. Plan your flagpoling trip :)

Hello nio,

Did you send your passport using Canada Post with Return Self Addressed Envelope inside the Package ?

If you did then you can see on Canada Post website if the tracking has been activated or not.

Usually what i have seen people received in 8 - 10 days maximum.

Hope this information helps.

Sincerely,
Ahmed.

Don't fret about the flagpole experience - as long as you are patient... you'll get through it.

* I drove through rainbow bridge
* at US border - just told them I wanted to flagpole
* He took our passport and checked us out
* asked us to drive to a gate (on the left) where another guard greeted us.
* Took our passport inside and came back in 10 mins. time with a 'white paper' and asked us to drove back to Canadian side
* Guard at canadian border checked our passport - and the 'white paper' - asked us to go inside (on the left)
* we went inside - gave our passports - they asked us to wait ... wait that was... 3 1/2 hours of wait
* called us finally - asked me to write the address in canada where I'd like to get the PR card. and asked two questions. Have I been convicted / charged of any office in Canada - I said NO. asked us to wait (again) - in 15 mins called back.
* Had us sign the CoPR papers - told us PR card will be sent to our address.
* and we were out... as PR :)

Just make sure you have enough snacks/water/drink for u and kids to munch around as the wait can get to u... and there is no snack machine around.
