After 7.5 months of submitting application, the only reason that I can think of asking for passport is for immigration Visa. Still waiting for confirmation from GAbbas786.
I'm a 2016 Applicant, they only asked for a photocopy of my passport

Please paste the text of the message here, so we can confirm if this is a passport request (PPR) or an additional document request.

Bro u have to copy paste the text here to get help. We don't know if its exactly passport request or they just want your passport copy which u missed while sending your application. Or maybe your passport has expired and they want copy of your new passport.

Back office pilot programme

Hey All,

I have some update for all of you regarding back office pilot programme. I emailed CIC and they informed me that in this programme the original visa office such as CPC Mississauga reviews files for completeness before it gets assigned to a visa officer overseas for initial review. This helps as all the documents are completed before being assigned to visa officer and results in reducing processing time/backlog.

I guess the above makes sense as lot of people are getting request for forms, photos, PC, medical etc within a month or so of filing the application with hope that it will reduce processing time when a visa officer is reviewing eligibility.

Hope above response helps for people who were concerned about back office pilot programme.

Cheers!!

Hi, thanks a ton for sharing the info. I hope this is really what they say it is and it will reduce the processing time for files included in the project.

Can you please share the date/month you applied for spousal sponsorship?

Re: SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

Did any Pakistani principal applicant submit the old Birth Certificate ? (non Nadra). The manually written ones that were called "Extract of Entries from City Register of Births within Municiple limits of Khi/Lhr/isb"

Your insight will be appreciated as we're fearing ours might get returned since we submitted the old extract of entries doc.
