Since the P1 usually asks for "Date of last time you entered Canada" you travel may invalidate it. Also my wife's P1 indicated a deadline of 7 days to reply. However, I'm not sure how strict they are. I don't know the nature of your travel (it might be very important), but I would personally...

About a year ago this was changed. Right now, if outland applicant is able to enter Canada (using TRV or is VISA-exempt), can apply for OWP. The OWP application grants PA a long-term status so he/she can live and work in Canada. The applicant must stay in Canada for the duration of the OWP...

CoPR is indeed a needed document for landing. They should have received this paper along with their passports. If they don't have it, this might create problems at the border. I would presume that immigration authorities have access to those documents but I'm not sure if they can provide a...

If he has an entry stamp and no end date indicated on it he's status is valid for six month, so you can just send a copy of the passport with the stamp page included. This should be enough. But normally this question is asked for inland applicants. Are you applying for inland processing? Keep in...

Length alone have no effect. We declared 6 months and got approved in no time. Strong profile with a consistent application is the key.

Unfortunately the pre-arrival is the most unreliable cue. I know few who waited over a year after pre-arrival, few got pre-arrival a day or two before PPR.

I agree with @scylla , you made grave mistakes in you application. It's just my humble opinion but: it seems to me that the officer is deliberately asking questions in the way that masks the most important problem with your application. There is just a hint that either you or your sponsor...

OWP will give your wife a status of a foreign worker, if I remember correctly, they give it for two years. So there is no need to extend anything.

I presume they are capable to filter data on the port-of-enty and get only the land border crossings.

You are right... I had to google before posting :) . https://www.cbsa-asfc.gc.ca/btb-pdf/eedcu-cudes-eng.html "Canada receives your biographic entry information from US authorities. We use this information to create your Canadian exit record. "

well.. I guess it should be ok. I don't believe that CBSA has land border outbound crossing records. They certainly have it for air travel (since few years already they track both in and out). Be advised that leaving Canada she must have valid TRV to get back (and US visa if applicable). The...

it's because Quebec's government wants its citizens to suffer. I have no other explanations for caps imposed by Quebec's immigration minister. Nothing is changed to the way the application is handled. The only thing that changes is that she'll be able to do the virtual landing once her PR is...

The new policy is in effect since the summer of 2023. So any article or forum post before that will certainly say that it's not possible for outland. Right now, if PA arrived and plans to live in Canada, it's possible to apply. Just change your wife's address to yours (you must live together I...

Based on my experience it will coincide with background check being complete. On its own this status is not important.

Your right regarding the benefits. It doesn't offer anything except being a bit more flexible. So keep in mind the cost of the SOWP and potential gains. If later prevails, then go for it. Otherwise, I doubt it's worth it.

You may try to request medical extension based on the public policy https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/application/medical-police/medical-exams.html. It is valid until October 6, 2024. So if he will not leave Canada, change his address to the Canadian one (inform...

Nothing needs to be done until they ask for it. AOR is indeed needed for SOWP however why wasting money if PA already has a WP? Unless it's expiring or you intentionally want to change it to SOWP there is no reason to apply for it. SOWP is not a visa and do not replace one. SOWP doesn't allow...

is your spouse outland and I suppose the medical is from previous (your) application? Unless your spouse is in Canada, there is no way this that they will grant COPR and, if required, a visa since the the applicant must land within the validity of COPR which is tied to medical.

Lol. Yeah, you're right. Prejudices....

I was referring to OP's age :)
