Yeah techinically you can, but have to provide a valid reason that you will leave. I do have a really good reason, but not sure if I would want to risk getting rejected. I should have applied for a visitors visa or a student visa, since I will be attending uni there.MaddyMe said:Technically, they cannot refuse visitor visa just because you have applied for pr. (I read about this somewhere in cic documents sometime) Practically, they would think - why does this person wanna go now while the pr application is in process, which in their opinion, doesnt take long to get finalized.
If you can convince them that you have a valid reason to visit canada early and are sure to return, they will issue visitor visa. You will definitely go back before PR application completes to submit your pp at nd, so u are good on returning part. work on the REASON and you will get visitor visa.
Just curious, if u are in US and apply..CanadiansWife said:Yeah techinically you can, but have to provide a valid reason that you will leave.

Yeah that's a good point you have there. I can't risk losing my passport again. The indian embassy here is horrible with issuing you a new passport. It takes forever. I applied for a renewal of my passport 6months ago, and I'm still waiting for it in the mail! (but that's a different topic).fprince said:Just curious, if u are in US and apply..
where will they send you a PPR ? and how do u plan to send the PP to India..
it is too risky to send by courier from outside India..
Hope u have a plan..
PPR is passport request letter ...CanadiansWife said:Yeah that's a good point you have there. I can't risk losing my passport again.

My lawyer will take care of getting the passport part to india, I hope.
What's a PPR stand for? Lol sorry.
Jas is right..if your lawyer is in India, it is again the same issue of sending the PP to India.CanadiansWife said:Yeah that's a good point you have there. I can't risk losing my passport again.

use your client id or application numberRAV23 said:hey would u plz tell me how i can check my status in my account, i always check my status with my husbands details......./////
Will they accept it from the hands of someone else? Or do I have to personally be there to hand tjjasvarun said:PPR is passport request letter ...
Your lawyer wont be able to do anything in this case unless he is intending to visit india himself with your passport and passport carrying authority letter.. you will have to think accordingly.. What if u get interview??

The passport and authority letter? (what's a passport authority letter for?)
If it does come down to an interview, then I will have to go to India. I have sent in a lot of evidence that my relationship is legit, so I would be surprised if I did get called in for an interview, but I'm prepared if there is that slight chance that I have an interview
Thanks for the info. My lawyer lives in Canada, but has dealt with my family immigrating to Canada from the US in the past, so she's good.fprince said:Jas is right..if your lawyer is in India, it is again the same issue of sending the PP to India.
If your lawyer is in USA, again...can't courier the PP...
Your lawyer is right by saying he has dealt with cases immigrating from US.CanadiansWife said:Thanks for the info. My lawyer lives in Canada, but has dealt with my family immigrating to Canada from the US in the past, so she's good.
Is sending a certified mail containing a passport illegal in india?
Erm, you are right in this point. If they askfprince said:The biggest screw-up which you can not imagine happening to yourself..
sending the PP to India somehow through someone or stuff..
ND will hold the PP and if they ask you to come to the interview..
how will u travel?
You need to always expect the worst with a situation like this...be very very careful, it is too risky to live without a PP in any country.
Yes, they have called even the simplest of cases to be interviewed.
1. ND does not work by common sence, and if they find out that you live in US and your PP is in India..well, that is a complete different story of what can happen next.CanadiansWife said:Erm, you are right in this point. If they ask
For a passport, they can still call you in for an interview?!
On my application it does say that I'm living in the US and it asks you like
"if you are not a permanent resident of the country, which visa office would you like your application to be processed through?" they give you that option.
If they do hold my passport and call me in for an
Interview, I hope they will have enough common sense to see that my current
Residence (home address, where I'm
Living and working) is in the USA.
