I received request for the passport submission upon which i went through usual drill and submitted the relevant stuff to VAC
I have got notification from NYC Vac as below :
Tracking ID NYC161307***
Application Submitted: 18-April-2017 14:28 PM
VAC Location: NYC
Document Delivery Method: Home Delivery
Air Waybill Number: 9114 9012 3080 1637 **** **
Visa Type: PVT
Submission Method: Mail In
My H1B stamped visa is expired and have valid I-797 for 2 yrs (2016-2018) [Currently located in US]
I have submitted renewed passport of 10 yrs validity(2015-2025) without any stamped pages in it.
So will they grant me temporary resident visa (TRV) till 2018 based on my I-797 or duration of my passport validity?
Can anybody shed light based on their past experiences?
Were you granted visa based on your passport expiry or limited duration?
The validity of your TRV will depend on the assessment made by the visa officer.... based on a number of factors such as your ties to the US and/or to your home country + your immigration status in the US + the reason you want to visit Canada, etc.
So, your TRV validity could be until your I-797 validity or your passport expiry or a shorter length
OP what was your timeline? Did you get the passport request on the 18th or did you submit it then?
I got the request and submitted the passport to VAC by 17th.
Hey so what was the verdict? I am in a same situation as avs189. What does PVT stands for?
Here is the explanation of PVT type visa I received from VAC:
"That is the abbreviation used for all those submitting their passports through our office for online visa applications."
