Hello all,
My parents are here with me in Canada under super visa. We submitted the medicals as part of PR sponsorship last month. Hopefully, the next step would be passport request. The PR application is processed in New Delhi. I am wondering how to submit the passport when requested by CHC in New delhi. It is illegal to mail/courier passports out of the country. I do not want my parents to travel all the way to India just to get the PR sticker. Is there any other way to get it done? Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Hi. My parents are currently here in Canada while their PR application is being processed in LVO-Manila. They now received passport request and was given an option to send their passports to Ottawa. I would guess your parents will have the same option as well. Please see excerpt of instruction for your reference:
