Hey Guys.. I have a PPR dated 18 July 2013..

Passport Request for Spousal Visa
My Husband is a Canadian Permanent Resident and have applied for a spousal visa for me.

I recently got approved my Multiple entry Canadian Visa and I intend travelling to canada in 3 days time already bought the ticket today.

Our file got transferred to the Canadian High Commission in New Delhi, and have my passport requested by them my question for you is :

1) If I go to Canada in a next 3 days tickets bought, Do I have to return to India to submit her passport?
2) Does delay in passport submission delay the process as well?
3) Is there any other alternative like authorizing a family member in
India to submit the passport on her behalf? We do understand that we cannot courier her passport to India as the laws in India do not allow shipment of passports. However my relative is leaving for India in 21 days, Is it OK for him to carry her passport and hand it over to her parents who can then submit it forward.

And what is the time limit for us to submit my passport once PPR is made?

Please assist...

You are correct that you cannot send your passport to India visa a postal system and eitheryou will have to drop it off, or have a friend or family member go to India and drop it off.

The number of days varies regionally. In our case, the letter stated that precisely, (for us - 45 days). When is she supposed to go back? You all understand that, and based on what I've seen posted here, the ND office keeps that passport for just about the whole duration of your application.
