Biometrics Request: Oct 27
Biometrics Completed: Nov 16 (USCIS appointments had a long queue in Chicago area)
Passport Request: Dec 2
Passport Sent: Dec 16 (VFS NY took so long to reply)
Passport Received: Dec 22, 2021
I'm on H1B visa, so probably qualified for CAN+. Attached entry/exit stamps, visa, payslips, W2, bank statement, purpose of travel with Toronto hotel booking and new year party booking confirmation, Chicago to Detroit train return tickets and Avis Car Rental from Windsor.
Reason was to visit as a tourist and meet some friends (I met them via dating sites LOL!).

Congratulations! And I am assuming your BVL letter came from Ottawa? You applied on the New Portal or GC Key ?
Congratulations!!! You applied on the new portal or GC Key ?I have received "RE: validity of your biometric information" letter today (26.01.22) to let me know my biometrics are valid for 10 years.
Editing this post to add that they have just requested my passport
Hey,
I applied my visitor visa and now they are requesting my original passport. I emailed VFS and made the payment for passport submission. But they gave me incorrect labels with incorrect address. I made a request to update the address but they are sending me a new invoice. What should I do?

Better repay and request refund for the initial payment later. Which VFS and when did you receive the PPR?
