Hi Folks,

Alhamdolillah my Wife finally got her passport request (PPR) email Today.

Quick questions (sorry too excited that the moment):

- In the attached PDF letter, it is stated that:

-> What do they mean by 'Confirmation of Permanent Resident Documents(s)'? Should my Wife wait until she receives 'Confirmation of Permanent Resident Document' from CIC/LVO before submitting her passport to Islamabad?

My understanding was that she will print out this PPR, fill up the attached form, send photographs and her passport to Islamabad where they will staple the Canadian PR visa to her passport and return it back to her. I am confused about the COPR here.

-> Do we have to any additional fees (I paid the $1050~ fee at the time I filed her application with CIC)? They haven't mentioned anything about the fees in this letter.

-> How do VFS send the passport back -- does she have to go to collect the passport or do they house deliver? Do they give any tracking number for the passport?
All prospective immigrants are issued a COPR document(IMM5688) alongwith the Visas.
(used to be known as landing paper, record of landing, etc). Issued with every Visa

Hello quick question, On ecas it says Decision Made under Sponsorship Application Status and under "Permanent Residence Application Status" Application Received and when I click on Application Received , it says "We received ******** application for permanent residence on November 25, 2014." Now how do I know where is my case file? Is it in London Visa office? when I received my AOR on february 22nd 2015 it gave the address of London visa office for any questions or inquiries regarding my case but didn't specify where my file is currently. So can anyone help me please??
if they told you to contact London for questions/inquiries, it's obvious your file is there.
Common sense.

Order GCMS notes (electronic) if you're looking for more info on your file. Google or check forum, it's ordered on CIC website(sponsor can do it)

Salam Alaykum Friends and Members,

Here it is...

I finally came out with a Spouse Sponsorship of Pakistani Applicant FAQ Guide.
http://bit.ly/canpakspouse_faq

There are so many questions that are repetitive as most people are aware of -- such as:
How long does it take to get PPR after the DM?
Where do I send RPRF payment?
How to order gcms notes? When to order?
How to read gcms notes?
What forms do I need to print for spouse sponsorship of Pakistani applicant?
What is the next step?
How long do I have to wait?
and so much more...

I think it covers about two-thirds of the questions that get asked in the thread.
If you would like to volunteer some more detail information, please send me a PM or email.
(i.e. contribute a mistake in the common mistakes section or add another section/topic, or expand details on a topic.)
If you find the FAQ or Timelines Spreadsheet beneficial, please click [good] next to my alias name Mercy24.

Even better, if you choose to add this link to your signature -- I would appreciate the support in creating awareness.
Spouse Sponsorship of Pakistani Applicant FAQ http://bit.ly/canpakspouse_faq

Wishing you all re-unification with your loved one soon.
Cheers! ;)
Thanks, this is wonderful and so helpful!
:)

Re: SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

quick question regarding PPR:

-> Does my wife (who I am sponsoring) need to fill out the 'appendix A' which is provided? Because it states on top of form "Appendix A - Updated Information Chart"

My understanding is:

-> Provide 2 photos (same size as that for the application submission time / re-med time)
-> Passport
-> Printout the attached PDF (from the PPR email)
