Lamja I am so happy for you! My husband and I got so excited as if we were the ones who got ppr! We are March 17 applicants so fingers crossed we are soon!! Did the VO give you a timeline for when you need to give them your passport? I ask this since my husband and I are abroad and need to be prepared for this stage. Thanks and once again congratulations!
Hello Anxious2015 ,
You have 30 days from the date you received passport request , well that' was my case :

Your application for permanent residence in Canada has reached the final stage of processing. You must submit your passport and the passport(s) of all accompanying dependent(s) to the visa office in Vienna (see address below) within 30 days of the date of this letter in order to finalize your application.

:) good luck

Just received my SA, processing will be done in Vienna. So I guess I am finally certain that I belong here. Too bad (no offence ;) ), I was hoping for Ottawa or Mississauga, since their processing times are way faster.

Hi Team ,

I received mail from cic asking for visa fee and 2 photos, is that step closer to PPR or I will not have that step because I am coming from visa exempt country?

My ECAS just changed to "In Process" even though medicals are not said to have arrived yet, nor did I receive an AOR from Vienna.

Not sure what this means.

Hello Maartenvg,

Congrats on being in process so quickly!! When did you get your SA? Can you post your timeline please?
It could be that medicals have been received but they just haven't updated that portion (probably next few days it will be updated). If they really didn't receive them, they might ask for them in the next few days.

Vienna doesn't send AOR2 at all.

Just keep checking your email as they usually request the passport shortly after it says in process or even before that.

Good Luck! You seem to have a really quick timelines as it is :)

Hi LLAngel, my wife received SA on the 6th of August, just a few days ago. In the SA letter they said I hadn't received my medicals, so I'll have to recheck with the physician that I used. But that'll have to wait, I'm on holiday back in the Netherlands.

WOW...so it only took them 4 days to mail your application to Vienna and they opened it right away? That's super good luck!

Most of us wait minimum 2 months before hearing anything :S

Yea, I'm not sure the "In Process" is correct. It almost feels too fast. Some other June people (but not processed by Vienna) had an instant "In Process" too, so it might be that they've changed their protocols or something like that.
