Wonder if they will ask us to update the DS260 after sending the passport and medical reports. Typically after how long do they ask to update a DS260? 6 months or 1 year? 

I think others said it opens up after 1 year

Hi All,

Here is a good news. It might give everyone some hope.

 

My visa is issued on Nov 15th.

I haven't received any email regarding courier yet. Canada post strike might delay who knows.

 

I do not know how to request for other courier options. If anyone has any idea please let me know.

 

 

What is your timeline?

Congratulations, can we pick up passport in person instead of mailing option, did you request in person pick up of passport, or they just offer it to you. 

I did not make this request, they offered it to me as an alternative to completing another medical exam.

Yes, they did.  I did not make this request, they offered it to me as an alternative to completing another medical exam.  Info about my case/category are in the sidebar, timeline and signature below.
