Thanks for replying. So does this mean that the person is going to be approved?

It just means that you are not visa-exempt.

he got PPR a few months ago but when he sent his passport and got it back it was blank without visa. On inquiring from CIC they replied that we sent PPR by mistake and now he see this counter thingy in his GMCS notes.
