Finally got the AOR! I hope I will stop loosing my hairs now
AR: 10/08/2022
AOR: 01/18/2023
BC PNP International Post-Graduate
Poor thing. Imagine you had to wait 18 months, you'd be bald by now!

Now to prevent you from losing more hairs, I would strongly suggest you review prior posts and look at our experiences. It is VERY COMMON to hear nothing, zilch, nada, nup, nothin' from IRCC for eons after every update. I am aware of some people who got AOR after a year. Then they waited...

waited...

waited....

a month went by, 2 months, 3 months....

then at month 4, it really started to bite their mental health...

at month 5 you start losing it "Did they lose my file?? WHAT THE FUCK! Is my officer dead? Am I on some organized crime watchlist?"

Nope, you need to understand IRCC don't care about us as we're a non-priority stream.

Then in month 6! Huzzah! BANG PAL, BANG, PORTAL!

Then another month passes by... "Where the fuck is my ECOPR?"

Ah fuck you realized you ended up with IRCC Montreal, sorry bud.

2 months...

3 months... "why did I come to Canada?" you ask.

4 months... ! Yay ECOPR! I CAN FINALLY PLAN MY LIFE

(And then 2 more months for a PR card).

And then after seeing the amazing lumberjack girls chopping wood with their lululemon's and plaid shirts, you'll realize it was all worth it.

Welcome to hell Canadian Immigration.

Questions for you guys
in Generic application form for Canada (IMM 0008) in section personal detail
for Current country of residence I put did put Canada and I'm worker
I did put date from when I did arrived but what should I put to? since I'm waiting for my new work permit since my old one was expire and my temporary work permit as well January 2nd. and I did submit for new one with new LMIA in November and still waiting. Only date that I can put is maybe expiring date that I give with application for new work permit.
Any ideas?
Because you submitted an LMIA and those give you 2 years, I'd put 2 years from now. It's fine.

Did anyone receive their GCMS notes recently? I paid twice already and never got anything. Last one I requested on Oct 28.

Once I receive my PR, I will request 10 doll reimbursement, no doubt!

Did you file with CBSA? My 2 with CBSA and one with CSIS (from roughly Oct~ early Dec) all got responded to in about 1 mo, while the one with IRCC in the end of Sep never arrives lol
And you don't have to pay for it if you're in canada and file it for yourself under that "Privacy Act" option

I have since linked the application, and uploaded the required Schedule A form via the link provided in my portal. The medical stuff shows that one is not required to do medical. Is this the case for everyone initially? I am asking because I'm not sure if I meet the conditions for medical exam excemption.

Hello Everyone,
Received AOR today
AR: Mid November, 2022
AOR: January 18, 2023

Schedule A form was required to be completed. I would like to know if one needs to print out the form and complete it with pen or if one can complete it using the PC and print it oout just to sign. Also, the space for the filling of information is not wide enough for some of the required information.
How did you guys navigate through this? Thanks
I also got the AOR today, applied early October. For Schedule A, I completed the form digitally. Since I have a Mac, I cannot save it as a digital print(pdf) to sign it digitally, so I had to go to windows, print the digital copy (in pdf), then I signed it digitally (plus included the name in native script) because I have handwritten signature in digital format. I think this should work but it is untested so my recommendation would be to just print the thing out, sign it and then upload it.
As for the not enough space: You can include separate sheets to include the information you cannot fit. Just follow the instructions at the top of IMM5669 which is:

If there is not enough space to provide all the necessary information, attach to this form a separate sheet of paper with further details. Print your name at the top of each additional sheet and indicate the form's title and the number of the question you are answering.

I added my medical sheets (mine, my wife and my son) when I first applied (prson site), I linked it on December 15, and since then I have had this status on my medical:

I applied for PR via the PNP non EE stream in December and just about to apply for my WP. Will there be a problem if they see that I applied for PR before WP? I am outside Canada and I have a job offer .
Thanks

Really? I had no idea I can submit through CBSA. I submitted through IRCC twice, paid 5 doll every time.. I even received confirmation from ATIP-AIPRP@cic.gc.ca and sent them emails a couple of times to follow up, but nothing.

Thanks! I will submit it through CBSA then. Free! Had no idea.
