Permanent Residency under the Humanitarian Category (update)

[FitLife]

Hi,

This is an update for the thread I created few months ago. For those who have been following it, INZ has approved my PRV application, finally!! The CO requested my passport to endorse the visa, my lawyer said it will take about 3 weeks or less. Does INZ normally take that long for the sticker after approval or is this uncommon in your experience under different categories?

If you would like me to set up a timeline, I'd be happy to in due course.


Thank you JandM for addressing my previous concerns :-)

Putting the sticker in the passport is yet another thing which involves a date-order queue - passports which arrived before yours will be dealt with first. So how long it takes till it comes back depends on how busy things have been. Once it's your passport's turn, it's a very quick process, but it's just the waiting that is variable and unpredictable.

That makes a lot of sense now.
