What does the passport request letter contain under "where to send your passport"?

You don't necessarily need to send it directly to Paris. You could choose to send it to the nearest VAC (Visa Application Centre)

Hi in instruction it says I mean they have given 5 options and says if you are from one of these categories send your passport to that address and for me it was Paris office!

I am in Norway to attend the marriage ceremony of my cosin so is there any possibility i can get my visa done here in Norway instead of sending passport to Paris office!

Please guide me and thanks a lotttt

I was under the impression that it can update the day after a business day, so Tuesday-Saturday. =)

Hello Everyone!

I am new to this blog!

I am from Spain, my husband is in canada. He got Sponsorship approved on 15th September, But in ecas it still shows "in process"

And the PR application status also changed to "in process", and in details it shows
1. We received your application on 13 July 2015 (The day they recieved complete Sponsorship and PR application)
2.We started processing your application on 16th September.

Are they going really so fast, when my file got transfered to Paris, immediately they started processing it :eek:

Today i got an email from Paris VO asking for my passport's bio page's photocopy to complete the application (as stated by them),And i do need visa as i do not belong to visa exempt country.

Can someone please tell me if everthing is going in order in my case? Thanks in advance for the help !
Seems like going to IP so fast is the new AOR2. I had the same thing happen. Check out the spreadsheet (link above in one of the others' signatures).

They will do a passport request when a decision is made. Paris is quite fast... Spreadsheet will show. =)

Hi All,

Any idea how to find a professional interpreter in Algeria. Does the embassy has this service or should I find some one myself?

My wife will be nervous during the interview and I would like her to focus on the information rather than focusing on the translation.

Thanks
