hey so just wanted to inform, my VO never responded about my submission to India visa office, so I went directly to Visa Application Centre(VAC) India with all docs and passports of me and my baby and explained them the situation that I am back to India with my baby but my husband is still in Pretoria , SA. They said to give few min so that they will confirm with high commission of Canada in India if they can accept my passports. They made me wait for just 15 min and came back saying I can submit. So I successfully did it! It was really hassle free and people were very friendly and helpful.
So guys if anyone of u is in a situation like me, (PA and child in one country and spouse in another country or any other combination), u can always submit to VAC of your country of residence.
Just thought would share this so that its helpful for others if they have similar situation!
Regards,
Shweta
