she needs to write a letter and provide her explanation in detail as to why she doesn't have those specific moments pics? She can provide some more pics as they want to see some proof if the wedding is genuine. If they asks anything that we can't provide OR totally out of our hands, doesn't mean they start rejecting our applications


Yes but if they are asking for it
Doesnt that mean they think the proves provided are not enough??
And they absolutely wants to see just "that moment" to believe ??
[/QUOTE]
what are those specific moments pics they are asking? if you provide some details, then senior members here can provide some more help

guyz a quick question. I got PPR and submitted Passport to VFS today. but i can also see in gckey account passport as required document to upload. do i need to upload a copy here as well? or just sending to CHC ISB is enough?

thanks
We got the same request on GCkey to upload Scanned Passport copy of 1st two pages (having Name, DOB, Birth place etc) and also if my husband has any recent travel history (then wanted us to upload the pages with visa stamped on it and i guess entry and exit stamps too)
So, we uploaded the passport 1st two pages with his info on it and since he doesn't have any recent travel history we didn't have to worry about the other pages
My husband read through the internet and he says that its a recent change in PPR process (referring to upload the Passport pages on GCkey even if you are sending Passport through VFS)

Besides that, we have send the 7 page document with filed Appendix A, original passport and two pics through VFS (we didn't opt for sending copies of passport cozzz why would we intentionally make it slow? lol!)

Hope this helps!!

Hey, the spreadsheet says your BGC started 23-April-2017. I suppose that's a typo?
TBH it made me nervous too sometimes :p I do really think its a typo!!

No. We were one of the applicants whose BGC showed In Process while the file was still at CPC.
Although I don't think BGC truly starts until months later when the file is opened by LVO.

I'm confused now. Do you only upload your passport if you are from a visa-exempt country, or do all cases now require you to upload your passport online as well as submit it at VFS?

I'm confused now. Do you only upload your passport if you are from a visa-exempt country, or do all cases now require you to upload your passport online as well as submit it at VFS?
The upload passport option is generic and will appear the same to everyone whether you are from a visa exempt country or not.

If you are from a visa exempt country you will not submit ur passport at vfs as visa stamping is not required. In this case, you must only upload ur scanned passport through the gckey account.

If you are from a non visa exempt country such as Pakistan you must submit original passport at the vfs. Since you are sending ur original passport to the high commission, theres no need to upload a scanned version through the gckey account.

Hope this clears your confusion.

Hey guys, quick question: how do you pay RPRF fee? I have been looking on CIC website, but the link I found - is making me pay the whole payment, not the RPRF fee only.
