Woohoo Got passport requests
Yey - started a year ago but got passport requests yesterday, woohoo. Here's our timeline for a PNP application in Calgary sent to Buffalo:
We'd just sent off for an extension on our current visas as they expire in June and had been advised by my wifes work which has been handling the paperwork to do so, d'oh!
Now the fun part - we have flights back to the UK on May 21st, we're not delaying sending in our passports so we have to Fedex them down today and hope that they don't take the full 3 weeks to process. Still think it will be tight to get them back but does mean we can come in as permanent residents when we return from these hols!!
- Apr 08 - sent off for Provincial nomination and had been approved by Sept
- Oct 08 - sent off federal application to Buffalo
- an 09 - got medicals request and completed and returned by early Feb
- Feb 09 - application moved from Buffalo to Seattle
- Apr 09 - Passport requests recieved

Re: Woohoo Got passport requests
Passports back today, took about 2 weeks from Seattle total using Fedex at both ends. 
Great news all round, plus it's our anniversary today, got married 05/05/05, so lots to celebrate!!
In total about 1 year exactly for our Alberta PNP to be processed and for us to get passports in hand.
