Thank you all......I sent via Australian express post with a trackable prepaid envelope inside the other trackable envelope, which CHC use to sent my PP back and I was able to track the route.

I forwarded my application on 3rd Sept using my courier service and was delivered on 06 sept 2013. now jus waiting for it to get it back
I forwarded the same day as you and it was delivered on 6th as well. Let's see how long can we expect. Good Luck!
What service did you use and did you put a 'prepaid' return envelope? I keep reading about the 'account number' on the returning envelope. What's that about?

Same dates here too! I sent mine from Canada, with FedEx and a prepaid envelope ( But the payment method I used may not have worked as I used a visa electron card and they work half the times haha) so mine is most likely coming back in regular post which will take 4-6 weeks :(
Account number means u have to have an account with them that has your name address etc and a payment method for the return envelope (visa, master card etc) and it has to be under your name so that immigration returns it to u.. I've read about people using their boyfriends, parents etc credit cards and immigratuon didn't accept them..

Soon :)
I emailed Sydney; attached copies of all docs and advised that I have already sent them all the PCCs and driving abstract. They replied back:

Dear XXXXXXXX,

Please ignore our document request - this was sent in error. The file is now under final review.

We apologise for this oversight.

Sincerely,

Immigration Section/bureau d'immigration


So i guess i dont have to send them anything but that also means my wait starts again :( :(

At least they apologized ;)
But I would take this as a positive sign. I bet you will get your PPR in few days now. May be this weekend...fingers crossed :)
