Small update on our end. Nothing quite so exciting as a PPR, but we sent in a CSE last week, asking for confirmation that our file had been received as we had not heard anything from them, and we received a reply this morning saying that our file had been received for processing. It's a small step but hey, we'll take it :)

Not at all. Keep calm and carry on MrsLWSN. We all agree to disagree.
I see that things were said but truthfully, you guys will eventually get past it. Do try to keep things positive in this forum. We're all here for support and information.

@ Can4Vincy You deserve it and more...

@ Jerrynyc You don't always get an AOR from POS. Normally, it is received by the applicant 3 mths after the file x-fer to the VO. I received mines almost 10 mths after and that's because I begged for it. Check out our s/s. Click this link http://goo.gl/QQw3i

UPDATE!!!!! UPDATE!!!!!!!!! UPDATE!!!!!!!!!
Forum Fam, I have a big update for you guys. I wish I had checked my email this morning but I was honestly caught up. Well after that email I sent Sunday night....Guess what? I finally got my RPRF & PPR via email.


Here's a copy of the entire email, of course without my information.

Dear Applicant,

This refers to your application for permanent residence in Canada.

I am pleased to advise that your application appears to be ready for a final decision and visa issuance. The final decision can only be made when you have met the following requirements:

1) Right of Permanent Residence Fee

Sponsored members of the Family Class
If your sponsor has not already done so your sponsor is required to pay your Right of Permanent Residence Fee to the Case Processing Centre in Canada.

All other applicants
If you have not already done so you are required to pay your Right of Permanent Residence Fee. The fee, CAD$490.00 each for you and your accompanying spouse (if applicable), must be submitted to our office according to the enclosed instructions.

Methods of payment

Trinidad and Tobago: You can deposit the fee directly to the High Commission of Canada Account at any Scotiabank branch in Trinidad and Tobago. You will specify that you are submitting payment for the Right of Permanent Residence and you will receive a receipt indicating that. The deposit can be made in TT$ as the bank will convert the local currency at the time of the deposit. The bank will charge a small fee for this service.

Guyana: The fee can be paid at the High Commission of Canada in Guyana. Payment must be with a certified bank draft in Canadian dollars payable to the “High Commission of Canada” and must be drawn on a Canadian bank.

Outside of Trinidad & Tobago and Guyana: You may submit your payment by certified bank draft. Payment must be made in Canadian dollars, payable to the “High Commission of Canada” and must be drawn on a Canadian bank.
2) Passports

You must submit a valid passport for yourself and each accompanying family member.
NOTE – Your visa(s) will be valid until 12 months from the date of your medical examination(s) or the expiry date of your passport(s), whichever is earlier.

Citizens of Antigua and Barbuda, Barbados, St. Kitts and Nevis, St. Lucia and St. Vincent must submit photocopies of ALL pages of every passport. They should not submit their original passports. This is due to the fact that no visas need to be placed in their passports.

Citizens of Guyana - only machine readable Guyanese passports will be accepted


3) Photographs

One (1) current passport-type photograph, meeting the enclosed specifications for each member of your family, with the name of each person written on the back.
Do not staple or glue these photos to anything


4) Personal information
Complete the following information for yourself and each accompanying family member. Please enclose an extra page with this information if this space is insufficient.

Name Eye Colour Height (cm)
____________________________ _____________ ____________
____________________________ _____________ ____________
____________________________ _____________ ____________
____________________________ _____________ ____________


A final decision cannot be made on your application until the Right of Permanent Residence Fee has been paid and all of the above-noted documents have been received.

They must be received in this office within SIXTY (60) days of the date of this letter. Failure to do so could result in your application being refused.

Submit the documents, including this letter, as soon as possible to the following address:

High Commission of Canada
Immigration Section
Room 007
P.O. Box 565
Port of Spain
Trinidad and Tobago

Residents of Guyana
You may choose to submit your documents to the High Commission of Canada in Georgetown for forwarding to Port of Spain

Residents of Antigua, Barbados, Dominica, St. Lucia, Grenada, St. Vincent, and St. Kitts-Nevis
You must contact their local courier service e.g. DHL or FEDEX to make arrangements for the pre-paid return of your passports.



High Commission of Canada
Immigration Section
P.O. Box 565
Port of Spain
Trinidad & Tobago
Website: www.trinidadandtobago.gc.ca
Email: pspan-im-enquiry @ international.gc.ca
Fax: (868)628-2619




PHOTO SPECIFICATIONS


Notes to the applicant:

● Immigration photographs are not the same as passport photographs.

● Make sure that you provide the correct number of photographs


Notes to the photographer:

The photographs must:

● show a full front view of the person's head and shoulders with the full face centred in the photograph;

● have the facial image measure between 25 mm and 35 mm (1” and 1 3/8”) from chin to crown

● have a plain white background;
