Are they working on October 12 at Buffalo? I want to go in person there instead to send my passport in.
And as I know Monday is Canadian Holiday but I hope they can serve me on the 12.
Any opinion?

Nyssa- Send your passport out now!
I sent mine via express mail from Oregon to Buffalo and put a prepaid return express mail envelope and had it back in 6 business days. It cost 36 bucks total and it gave me piece of mind that it was trackable, had to have a signature, and I knew it wasn't sitting around in the post office somewhere collecting dust

Congrats!

I agree, prepaid return express is always a good idea.

OH MY GOD I JUST GOT MY PPR VIA E-MAIL! I CAN'T BELIEVE IT!!!!! 2 MONTHS!!!!

They are giving me until November 10 to give them my passport, I'm taking a trip until the 7th... can I mail it out? Do they have to recieve it by the 10??? OH MY GOD!!!!! VIA E-MAIL!

Dear Applicant:

This refers to your application for permanent residence in Canada. We are now in a position to request your passports for visa issuance.

Please submit your passport(s) before NOVEMBER 10 2010. The issuance of your visa(s) is time sensitive so it is important for you to submit your passport(s) as requested.

We require three (3) recent photographs of yourself and each accompanying family member.



Does this mean that I won't have to do my medical or have an interview now???

Hi nyssa , congrats. This was very quick.

Your turn will come, i just hope mine before yours seriously it's really bad not to know at which step they are and what make them not to go forward to give us ppr. I know each cases are different but so many people got it in less than 2 months, it cannot just be those few rare exception. I wish i had a way to make them tell me what is wrong so that i may send them what they need to be 100% convinced. My wife medical expire in a little bit than a month so i start to panic :S

i agree its not rare Dralon lets make a bet ull get urs by next week lol and mine will be the following week 8)

Buffalo usually replies so quick but ever since i emailed them and said Buffalo office emailed me 2 contradicting emails they never repliedddddddd! lol i guess they r biting their tongue

sigh the only happy thought my wife coming to see me for the long weekend

i just find it sad even sickening all that wait

I hope they are open on the 12th because my husband is going to drive there and pick up his visa. Anyone else thinking of going there on Tuesday?

So, what else other than 3 pics?
Do I have to write my height and eye colour on the backs? Or what is the "height and eye colour " all about?

Put your eye colour and height on a separate piece of paper with your name, date of birth and file number. Write your name on the back of the photos.
