Cheers, there are 2 parts, application fees and RPRF fees. Application fee has to be paid upfront, RPRF is optional at the start and can be paid later. Best to pay it upfront to avoid delays like us.

People sending passport through Nilgam:

Could you please tell me what should we write in the Representative Form which is part of PPR?

 

[UmairS]

Also for PPR when sending pictures, do we have to take new pics? Has anyone sent the same pics as when submitted with the PR app and faced no issues?

Is there any fee for VFS for passport submission? If yes, how did applicants from Iran pay that? If we using Nilgam?

Hi All,

We got PPR the first week of Dec from Ankara Visa office. I sent the passports to VAC Istanbul using ppt courier and it got delivered this Friday (based on ppt), does anyone know how long it will take for the passports to get back to us? how can I ensure VAC got the passports and all is good? Also, do you think I should email the consulate and let them know we submitted to vac, as they gave us 30 days which would end the first week of Jan. I appreciate your help and sharing any experience from before, like eta time etc. thanks.
