Two Way courier services VFS New Delhi - India

[Seek]

I have received RC-1 Category Visa ( PRTD )
Now to travel Canada via indirect route do I need Letter of Authorisation or my visa is sufficient ?
On my Visa it is written as :
Category:
RC-1 Permanent Resident
My travel agent said that I need Letter of Authorisation , is this true ?
Thanks in advance

Is it normal to get dispatch message before counterfoil?

My passport reached ircc on Aug 18th, on 19th I recieved status updated on GCKey, counterfoil was generated. On 22nd, I received another update with status update on gckey. They invalidated the counterfoil generated on Aug 19th and reissued another counterfoil on aug 22.
I checked my GCkey portal today and found that the counterfoils have been removed from there. Anyone knows what might be going on?

August 6: Under processing at IRCC.

August 24(Just now): The decision envelope for your application, tracking ID No. xxxx has been dispatched from the IRCC Office, to the Canada Visa Application Centre in CVO-NEW DELHI.

In IRCC GC Key Account: The counterfoil NOT generated and it says that "We are processing your application. We will send you a message when there is an update or if we need more information from you."

Received the passport without stamping.
reason: photo dimensions are not correct.
Unfortunately, not sure what went wrong here. I have taken the photograph guide to the studio last time and taken the pictures.

Hi, I read somewhere in this thread that when we submit 2 photos, they will use one photo to print the COPR and another photo will be returned back to us. so is true that 1 photo will be returned back to us? Thank you

Hi,
One photo they will attach on to your COPR form and another one they will return as-is. Just be sure that one of the photos you submit has the stamp of the photo studio + date photo was taken + name of the person in the photo + DOB.

My courier pick-up guy didn’t ask me for any ID proof, so I think anyone should be able to give your passport at your home.

Regarding photo-
The first time we submitted the passports, the vfs informed us tht our photo dumensions were wrong and we had to take the photo again at the vfs photo booth. So this time whn we couriered the passports, we were extra careful.
Things to note- the representation in the directions for photo is NOT the specific measurements but just the representation. Ensure that the photographer does NOT edit the photo as per the representative image. They did tht mistake in my photograph. Measure the dimensions with the ruler in the studio itself. Dont cross even an mm more.
An almost ideal way would be to chk if the old copr photo has the right measurements. If yes thn get them to scan tht photo and edit the new photo according to tht.
Total photo length- width and chin to top of head length are what matters

When did you receive the ppr? is photos came back before or is this your first time sending the passport to IRCC.

Hi Everyone.
I got a message that decision envelope for your application has been dispatched from IRCC to VFS.....

Are there any changes that application gets rejected after this step? I got pre arrival letter before that step. I understand that there are cases that passport isnt stamped due to photo specifications and all but that doesnt mean it is rejected right? is it safe to say that if PPR is asked and pr arrival kit is received means it is approved?

I have not linked my child sponsorship application to the IRCC acct. I tried but it says no match found due to which i couldnt find the detailed status. any advice here?
