Did you provide them with 2 return envelopes? I don't understand how they could send your wife's passport back without yours... If you sent one return envelope, are they gonna use regular mail to send your passport back?

I am guessing they would be in different countries.

Hi

Please listen to what people are telling you, the principle applicant must land first. The dependents can either land with you or after you.

If you don’t believe what people are telling you then by all means try to land your wife first and see what happens.

Thx

A

Hi Naval....Need some help from you as i am also in same position as you. My wife is in India and need to get her COPR stamped from her once i get my PPR. My questions are did you inform in mail to CIC about sending your wife's passport to New Delhi and how did you send the passport to Newdelhi. is it through VFS or just sent it to the canada embassy in Delhi. How long did it take to get back your Passport for Otawa and newdelhi

Thanks a lot Naval. I remember me having same doubt as you and i read some where in this forum very clearly that Principal applicant has to do the landing first. i dont remember the exact location but it was from Sep or Nov applicants only.
