Did you get any receipt for submission of PPs or got any date for pickup.

I also submitted and they told me to check after 4/5 weeks....is it normal?

They put an embassy stamp on a paper with receipt date and mentioned number of passports and other documents received with that. I haven't received passports back till today.

Hi all

Are u all applicants of fsw 2014?

Are there any express entry applicants here?
 
Hey Mates, ADVO received my passport September 17, any thoughts to when I can receive it back? No signs until now. Any idea on Abu Dhabi Canadian Office workload?
 
Backtracking all the posts. It is a bit shameful how ADVO is taking much time to stamp. Manila Visa Office and maybe some other offices are taking maximum 10 days to stamp.

I think they should hire more people. I myself cannot travel because of this long wait and again holiday in UAE on Thursday. Still praying to receive it before then. :)

You can go to the Embassy on Monday or Wednesday .. and show them your travel plan and they will issue the visa immediately
 
Breaking news, I just found that Aramex return tracking got activated, passport reached ADVO on 22/09/2015 hopefully will be delivered by tomorrow morning.

Cheers,
 
i got my Passport back!! in 10 days!! i was so sure (and worried) that they probably returned it due to some missing information or some error, but no, my visa got stamped in 10 days - i just can't believe it! (it was received in AUD on Sep 30th and AUD sent it back to me Oct 11th)

The Wait is Over! Canada here i come!!! :)

Thank you everyone on the forum for the advice, support and constant encouragement. This forum is truly a great resource for not just information but for those looking for some sort of hope.

I plan to leave early next year. Good luck all of you! and Goodbye for now!

What time Aramex tracking activiated? morning or evening?
 
Hi Guys!
Congrats to all those who are getting their passports back with the Marple Leaf everyday! What a lively forum! I am glad to be here.

I just recently got my CSQ for the Quebec Skilled Worker program in September 2015 and one week after I moved to the UAE and got a job. So obviously I will be using the ABU DHABI VO for my Federal application.

I will be expecting inputs from you guys, Seniors here, and hope you will be guiding me through the process of getting the Visa. Any QSW applicants in here?.......because almost all the recent posts I have read here are from FSW direct stream. What is the practical Federal Stage processing time for ADVO?

Thank you guys for replying.

Stylove
