Buffalo said they will process the visa ususally within 15 business days. My passport arrived on Apr.7, but I couldn't track my package in the system yet. Anybody has any idea? Being anxious. |

I myself am in panic now. My passport was mailed out in early Apr., and I couldn't track my package so far. It is still not in the Canada post system yet. |

As long as the PA shows up, it is fine. Dependents just cannot get visa on the behalf of PA. However, PA can do on their behalf. |

Does anybody know if your file is processed in Buffalo - whether you are allowed to get the PR visa stamped from another visa office / consulate [Ofcourse after Passport Request from Buffalo] ?
Based on my past experience with an immigration consulting firm in Canada, I don't think you can get your visa stamp from the office which didn't send you PPR. Unless your file is transferred to the branch visa office and you get PPR from them, you are supposed to send your passport there for visa stamp. |

are you in USA? what is the status of your passports? have they returned them to you yet
I am actually in Canada. I shipped my passport on Apr. 2 by xpresspost and haven't got it back so far. And I prepared the prepaid national xpresspost envelop for them as required. Hopefully, I can get it back by next week. |

Getting the passport back by mail usually takes 3 weeks. As PPR letter indicated it is usually allowed for maxi 15 business days to process visa stamp. Anyway, the passport cannot be with them too long. Just be patient! I sent my passport out on Apr. 2, and asked them to be prompt in my cover letter due to my arranged travel. Let's see what will happen. Anyhow, if I were in the States, I would not send my passport by post. |
Topic: How long it takes after medical for ppr at buffalo office
Thanks for nice words. Actually, I received my PPR letter today just a few days after I found my online status was changed into "Medical results have been received." Well, I was sort of relieved now. Anyway, I have been waiting for 7 months after my medical was done. Undoubtedly, they did conduct background check in my home country. It finally came to an end. Anyway, guys in this forum, just stay patient and you will be fine. |
Topic: How long it takes after medical for ppr at buffalo office
CIC buffolo is really bad in responding. I sent them fax a week ago, expecting them to fax me back with notes on my letter. They didn't send me anything. Well, it has been over six months since my medical was done. Almost five months since my landing fee was paid. But I haven't got any receipt for my landing fee yet. I am wondering what they are doing there especially given that I have 80 points achieved in the assessment and "no apparent concern" according to my CAIPS.
I thought the background checking is already over now, 'cause the email reply said "in process", instead of like before"request background information from other government offices." I feel so depressed about it. |

Have you got the words like "BF FILE TO: Row on XXX". Mine is row on Jan. 25. I don't know what that means. I am from China, too. I have been waiting for over six months after medical. It is so frustrating. Yours is still within the normal time, I think. |
