Finally Received an email on Friday asking IRCC permanent residence confirmation portal access details. Two separate emails were received foe myself and my dependent but at the same time it says to send info for yourself and dependent. My question is- i am supposed to send two separate emails for myself and my dependent or just one?
Congratulations! Can you please share your timelines?

What is a pre-arrival letter? What is the content just to get an idea? I see many people mention pre-arrival letter, i did not receive anything of this when i became a PR. Might be it is only for the PGP.

Hi All,

I received Passport request for my mom PR today. She came to USA last week to visit my brother for a few months, so I will have to submit her passport for COPR in US now. I am bit confused on the process for this:

1. Should I just visit VAC office in USA and submit her documents for Visa stamping?
2. Should I email CPC Mississauga first and seek their approval to submit passport in US instead of India?

Looking for guidance here if anyone faced similar situation. Thanks in advance!

pre-arrival letter is not a "stage" for the application. It contains information for new immigrate to access servies for new comers to Canada.

Some VO send them out late, some send them out early. Inland applicate may not even need to use some of those services mentioned in the pre arrival letter .

I have a question. I have the SA from the Federal and was advised to take the Quebec Selection Certificate. I applied for it and received it for my mother. I confirmed that they sent the CSQ to the IRCC Office handling our case which is Vancouver IRCC. Since my mother had Biometrics and Medical for her Supervisa and she is currently in Canada, may be they did not request both. What is pending is PCC. My mother will traveling back to my home country in two weeks. Is it possible to take a PCC from there immediately without the request from Vancouver IRCC office and post the same via WebForm? This is like upfront PCC. Will this be valid?
