Passport Submission Request for Saudi Based Applicants

[shahid_razzak]

Dear Members,

Today I have received an email from “IRCC.CPCO-FinalRequest-CTDO-DemandeFinale.IRCC@cic.gc.ca“ for CPCP FInal Request whereby I am instructed to submit the passports for self and dependents so that PR Visa processing may be managed.

This email instructs me to submit the passports in United Arab Emirates at the following address:

Immigration Section
Embassy of Canada
10th Floor, West Tower
Abu Dhabi Trade Towers
Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates
Tel: +971 2 694 0300

I have two queries in this context. These are in the following:

Query 1: I am a Pakistani national working as an expatriate in Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and am currently based in Riyadh, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Do I have to submit the passports in UAE or is there any office in Saudi Arabia where I can submit the passports?

Query 2: What is the time line of getting the passports back after getting the necessary visa?

Any feedback from those who have been through this would be welcome.

Best Regards,
Shahid

Hi metal

I ventured to visit VFS Riyadh yesterday (dated July 26, 2017) and they informed me that they can manage my request of passport submission without having to submit my passports to Abu Dhabi office by courier.

Naturally I was relieved to hear that and hence submitted my passports along with passports of my family to them for onward processing through Canadian Embassy in Riyadh.

Thank you for taking your time out and responding to my query.

Best Regards,
Shahid

That's a great News, Shahid.

May I know how much did VFS Riyadh charge you for this service? and any expected return date?

Hi metal,

They charged SAR 110 per passport on the pretext of SAR 105 processing fee (that means secure shuttling of passport to and from Canadian Embassy in Riyadh) and SAR 5 for SMS fee.

Expected timeline which they shared without any guarantee or confirmation is from 2 to 3 weeks from the date of submission with VFS.

Hope this helps.
