Hello fellow applicants,
Just wanted to say that I received the PPR on: 03/11/2017

))
Thank you all so much for all the help I received, I am extremely grateful and really wish all of you receive the much hoped-for PPR letter. I know the wait is terrible and sometimes it does feel hopeless (I started the PNP application on 15/11/2015 and received a RFE letter along the way

and several requests for additional documents). But, after two patient years, the wait paid off!!! Now onwards to travel preparations!
My sincere best wishes to all of you!
