[RickyNep]

Finally got my AOR!

1st Submission - April 25 (Returned: MAY 9)
2nd Submission - May 9 (Returned MAY 31)
3rd Submission - June 9 (AOR RECEIVED)

What was the reason of return? Is it possible to disclose that? Thank

Physical Presence calculator:
I have a question related to Physical presence.
I traveled in August 2nd 2018 and returned on 22nd August 2018. Again traveled in 10th December 2018 and returned 29th December 2018.
I don't have tickets saved for this trip, but I have a ledger with entry and exit dates.
However when I ordered travel history report, I don't see the entry of 2nd August 2018 EXIT. I see only the Entry of 22nd August 2018 ENTRY and Also No entry of 10th December 2018 EXIT,, but only the entry of 29th December 2018 ENTRY.
Now How do I fill the calculator entry. Based on my actual travel dates which I saved in my ledger or follow the History report?
If I follow the report then I don't see the EXITs of two trips, I have only ENTRYs.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks in Advance.

They said they cannot verify my status in Canada prior to becoming PR, which is very strange.

Fill what you saved in your ledger because if you don't, they will see the entry anyways and wonder when the exit was...
In actuality, if you travel to your home country for example, Canada isn't stamping you out. They stamp your return so it explains why they don't have your exit stamps.
If they have any questions while processing your application, they will reach out to you for an interview to verify your travel.
Alternatively, scan all pages of your passport showing exit and entry stamps and you are good.

I have another questions, What optional documents needs to be attached on the last page of online application. This is the section where it says "
Optional documents
Include any other documents or information that you want us to review when we process this application.
What do guys suggest to add other than the ones requested during to application filing?
Thanks in Advance

Its up to you. I didn't upload anything. But that's where you may upload your passport pages showing visas, stamps etc... or if you have an explanation letter for whatever reason you may have. Ideally, everything they asked you to provide is all you need to submit. This section is up to anyone if they have anything they want to share. It's optional

I did it for the optional documents because my child was born in Canada.

That doesn't apply to you since your kids were not born in canada as you said you applied for them with your wife as minors. And @IPULL is only telling you what he did as his own decision to do so. Its optional. If you don't have anything to upload, leave it blank.

I had the same situation. fingerprints request through email 26 June and I submitted the same day. On the tracker it doesn't even show anything about fingerprints. However I got test invite email and update on tracker like 3-4 days back. Everything is in progress except oath

I just got a ghost update this morning. Fingers crossed it's LPP complete and not a request for additional information. I guess I'll find out in 2 days.

@IPULL @ce Jay

@IPULL @limitless77777 haha. I wish. Just one time doesn't define being ahead. However, judging by the tracker, I think some people may be getting LPP soon since they have their background completed between June 19 and June 21 if we are going by the 1 month mark. I'm really hoping so. Fingers crossed we get it soon!

I received ghost update today. I hope it's LPP
