Thank you MikeyMyke for reminding us. What you advise us is also stated in the PPR email. CIC always makes sure they hold the handle of the knife, not the blade ??? ???

However, the email is also mark as Urgent, stating that the VISA will be expired on Aug 16 2016 (the expiry date of my wife's medical exam). Is this a good sign?

Hi Phamhainguyen68 ,

Yesterday, my wife got an email informed that they return all documents and photos.Also, they asked to sent 2 photos , passport and fill out Appendix B(including in email).Did your wife have the same request ? They do not need any re-medical or criminal report.

Nothing much in my notes on April, everything is "not started". I dont know if a had any red flags in our case but I think its not. We became a couple and getting married in 1 year, same age, same religion (catholic), married on second visiting, traditional wedding. We knew each other since we're 8 years old but never made any conversation until 2014 :) ,of course this is first marriage of both. My proofs are contract of reception, bill, invitation card, remittances, baptismal certificate, wedding and honey moon photos, air plane tickets, chat log, video call log and our friendship print out from FB ( chat log and video call log were shredded )

A lot of people are saying that there chat log or video log were shred but I don't see anywere in my note that they shreded mine. We provided a lot of it, over 100 pages.
 
Congratulations Nghile !! Wow really glad the singapore vo has started to send out ppr after months of silence.

Guys I'm really curious has anyone gotten aor 2 email from the singapore vo? Or the line of " medical results has been received" is equivalent to aor2? My husband has filed up the pr application via an attorney and the sa approval email was sent to the attorney. No email was sent to my husband ( the sponsor). Is there a high possibility that the ppr request wil b sent to the attorney?
Thanks in advance guys.
