Good Morning Everyone,
I decided (and I did) submit an online application this morning. Working on it over the weekend, I realized how much easier it was. I also included a letter of explanation (LOE) detailing that I had submitted a paper application (that was received) on April 11th and to date have not heard anything.
Since I submitted this morning, I at least received a letter of confirmation (not the AOR) and details as to the next steps.
I am aware that this process is starting over for me but at least there is some peace of mind, knowing the application is there...not in limbo and now following through with the process. I had submitted the PR the same time I did the Citizenship test. I will not submit the online PR Renewal. What is most important to me at this stage is the Citizenship Grant application. Seeing through with the Paper PR renewal will at least demonstrate to me, how that process works. The Citizenship Grant is the ultimate goal.
I will keep you guys posted on what is happening and will also join the June group. I will make an update in the April tracker as well. There may be others like myself out there.
Regards,
