Sorry guys, just been away from everything and super tied up with errands that I had to run as we got a bit of an update but couldn't come online as been busy as hell..

Before the update, just want to congratulate all those others who got passport requests and/or visa stamps since then! You guys have been waiting for a while and its awesome to see ADVO finally working! Good to see the updates coming in..

Congratulations Jen Pin! I know, you in particular, have been waiting forever!


Update is this..

October 14th 2014, my wife got a passport request from ADVO along with a request asking her for passport size photographs...

October 15th 2014, my wife dropped her passport off at ADVO along with the photographs and the Aramex envelope..

Today, October 27th, she just received the passport back with the PR Visa attached in it..
She also received in that package, the photos we had sent as proof etc...

So would appreciate if Jen Pin can update the spreadsheet whenever she gets time...

Congrats to everyone! This is great and encouraging news! :)


Guys I just wanted to know, when you receive emails from ADVO regarding additional documents or PPR, do they email the applicant, sponsor, or both??

Congrats March2014apply, we also dropped our passports on 15/10/2014 but haven't received back yet. Were you contacted by Aramex for passport delivery or you received email from ADVO for collection of passport?

Thanks guys! Bonty the same situation is happening with us. Aramex said they don't do return bill. They said to email the embassy saying we will pay for it when it delivers to us. Hope nothing bad happens!! Good luck guys!

No, my wife was contacted by Aramex for passport delivery...
She and I knew that the passport was out for delivery based on the tracking number they provided for your Aramex package when you dropped your passport off.

Do you have that tracking number? if so, go to aramex's official website and put that tracking number in...

Thanks everyone for the kind words..
But more importantly, thanks everyone on this forum for the help during this testing time.. You guys were awesome throughout the process and helped me and the missus keep our sanity through the wait and lack of communication from ADVO... Honestly, really really really appreciate it all you guys.
Jen Pin, ZZW, Impresso..! Thanks for everything..

I had accidentally sent the ADVO my wife's original birth certificate rather than the photocopy as required... Was very fortunate that they sent the original birth certificate, along with all the pics we sent, back... Much credit to them for that!

I am curious as to is it normal for them to pick applications at random it seems ? They are not going by first come first served..
