Two schedules in Mumbai, four documents, one deadline
- Week 1Two shops, two Saturdays.
Kunal gets his prints taken in Andheri West. Pooja has to wait two weeks for an available slot near Dadar.
- Week 5Pooja's card bounces back.

- Week 9Hong Kong replies first.
Both Hong Kong certificates arrive. So far, only Kunal's FBI Background Check has come back.
- Week 18Kunal's certificate ages out.
Pooja's FBI Background Check finally arrives, but by now Kunal's Hong Kong certificate is too old for the PR file.
- Week 24The file goes in late.
Four appointments, five couriers, and a Toronto joining date postponed to next year.
One visit to their Mumbai home, both files together
- Day 1Both printed at the dining table.
Our associate visits their flat in Powai and checks the FD-258 cards and the Hong Kong prints before leaving.
- Week 1Cards split by destination.
The FD-258 cards are sent to Globeia Washington, DC, and the Hong Kong set travels under the same Globeia reference.
- Week 3Four submissions, one dashboard.
Kunal and Pooja can follow both their files side by side in Globeia SmartPortal.
- Week 6All four back within days.
All four results arrive within days of each other, in English, and IRCC accepts them without an apostille.
