I read others saying they had seen something about a counterfoil once approved? I've not seen anything like that...

That is quick! Are you from visa exempt country?
 
The state of my Permanent Residency application has changed today to 'Approved'. Does it mean that they processed the passport scans and will send back COPR shortly?

Congrats! Which stream you're from?

Yeah, it strange, because the Application Details says: "Your application was approved. Check your messages below for details. " But there isn't any new message :D

does it take a while to generate or something?
 
It's already approved riz. Just nothing generated in my account.

Hi All!

I am trying to sort out the shipping labels for the return envelopes . The Fedex and UPS locations I went to, outright refused to generate a shipping label for the return envelope. Apparently, their system wont let them do it. So after a lot of back and forth and checking the forums, I realized there is something called the international way bill at Fedex. This has to be attached with the return envelope along with the Fedex account number. Does anyone know the exact process? I would really appreciate any advise! Thank you.
 
My timeline so far:

FSW inland
PPR received June 1st
Passport photocopy sent June 2nd
Delivered June 5th
Approved June 7th
Still awaiting activation of return tracker

I don't see any counterfoil or additional messages in my account, but the final decision has changed to approved

If you look up this very thread, you'll see that someone has used USPS to send the passport and the pre-paid, self-addressed UPS envelope for return from CIC, whereas someone else has used UPS both ways.

But if you want much more expensive yet speedier and arguably more reliable service, you can use FedEx. (AFAIK, they can ship to Ottawa in 12 hours from metropolitan areas in the US, and many big firms use them for critical products and documents.)

To create shipping and return labels you need to use FedEx Ship Manager, which requires that you create an online account. If you're not sure, go to a FedEx location. They can help you with generating labels after you create the account. Just to be safe, take care of custom declarations for both shipping and return too.
