maaan... i submitted my passsport on 30th april, still status in gc account not yet updated as approved... background still processing.. anyone knows the time line for copr timeline in singapore office after passport submitted

Hello dear,

please dont worry or pay too much attention to the GC-Key/ECAS status. Mine shows still assessing suitability for application and they've already asked for our passport.

I think each section is individually updated by separate agents and they don't have to update it properly before the next section does its task. Good thing too!!

Good luck with your application.
 
My wife went to DHL and they don't offer prepaid return envelop anymore in Vientiane.

What is my shipping option?

I really want to have the return label printed

Hello BlueArrow,

my reply doesn't answer your question precisely....

We are in Thailand and went to a similar courier service here - Kerry. They refused to carry the documents when they learned it was passports.

We had to go to Thailand Post, and sent the documents by EMS, which tracked and collected a signature upon delivery.

You could try the Laos Post Office and discuss if they can use a self-made prepaid envelope and include it with the documents mailed to the CVAC in Bangkok (I think that is your appointed centre).

You'd also have to discuss with the CVAC directly to know what amount to pay for the service, including sending the document back to you from Bangkok to Vientiane. It sounds complicated.

Good luck! Please let us know what you ended up doing.
 
Good news for me today, I have received a request from Singapore to send them a copy of my passport and some photos to complete my application. (I am British, so not required to send off the passport). I also have to choose how I would like to receive my COPR letter, which they will send me on receipt of my documents. 7 months in and I am nearly finished! Exciting :)

brother,
cic sent my marriage photographs back, is this normal? is this kind kf refusal?

SVO sending back your proof of relationship photos doesn't mean refusal. In my case, they mentioned that they sent me back our proof of relationship photos along with the Interview Convocation Letter, but actually, the officer gave it back to me at the end of my interview.

So, don't worry about that. SVO seems to have been giving back those photos as they don't need to file them in their database. It seems like they only keep the application forms and the proof of relationship documents such as marriage certificate, birth certificates, etc., but not photos :):)
