Perhaps you should call the Call centre to make sure tomorrow...

I suspect they mean they cant mail it back recorded delivery outside India, Nepal and Bhutan if you supply a self addressed envelope as requested in the PPR Letter. I was requested to supply an A4 envelope or bigger for them to mail back my passport recorded delivery from London. However I would be surprised if they wont return your wife's passport if you have provided a pre-paid fedex envelope!! ???

Good luck and Congrats on the passport request :D

I am on E-cas as "in Process". I tried to login with my file number but I was not sure which category it belonged to so I used my husband's (suponsor) client number and info. Like the AOR letter it has been in process since August 30. It did not say anything about needing more documents (such as my FBI certificate) so I assume they have not really checked deeply into the application yet.

Oops I can login with my name and info. I guess CIC likes to remove the hyphen "-" from last names.

I have an Ecas status update today! It says that they have made a decision on my application - which is kinda good as they've had my passport for a week. I was hoping to get it back soon.

Was able to log in using applicant's number and info but still only says that they began processing on August 27th. Nothing else :(. Does your say the same?

hi im new to this thread and i hope you can help.

Submitted application 1st week of june.
July 28, 2010 - Canadian embassy in the Philippines asked for my passport
Aug 5, 2010 - They asked me to submit the family information part of the application (not sure why as that was included in the original documents sent in the 1st week of june)

As of today they have not returend my passport yet with the visa.

Is this normal and does it usually take this long upon the time they requested for my passport?

Thank you for that link.

Im just curious as to how long it usually takes from the time the embassy asks for your passport and the time they give it back to you? would you know that?

thanks in advance
