Hey Guys,

I applied for TRV for my parents on March 10th and received Original Passport Request (OPR) on Nov 26th. Confused on what to do next. The VAC in Chennai is closed for Canada. They open only on Dec 2nd. Also i read from lot of thread that I need to request for 2-way courier service. Some say that we get the instruction letter followed by the OPR. I did not receive that. Should i wait or i can initiate the request by emailing passportsubmission@vfshelpline.com ? If i should be sending a first email. what should it be? And what will be the next process, Please help.

Also is there anyone who is in the same boat in Chennai?

You should send an email to vfs attaching passport request letter, then they will send 2-way courier service instructions

send an email to vfs that you mentioned above attaching your passport and passport request letter.
Then they will ask for the information like UCI and application ID etc and send them on that email again.
Then they will send you payment link make payment from your credit card once payment is successful send them reply on email that you made the payment.
After sometime they will send you the AWB number, Address and date of passport collection will be mentioned in the email along with attached consent forms and sms courier form, fill them and sign them and hand over the sealed package with all the documents they have asked to submit with passport to the nearest blue dart.

Address and phone numbers to be mentioned correctly because there are only two attempts will be made by blue dart to submit your passport and they will not pick your passport its only you who have to submit the package to blue dart.

Shouldn't we wait for the email from Delhi High commission before sending email to VFS?

If you received passport request letter then wait for the courier instructions letter. If you dont receive any instructions letter then send an email to vfs attaching passport and passport request letter on passportsubmission@vfshelpline.com asking for further process. They will auto revert you
Thanks, I did send an email to VFS. They replied back asking for uci and other info. But they have mentioned in their email to send this info in text file if you have received passport submission letter from Delhi High commission. Hence waiting for email from Delhi High commission.
