I'm not an expert either, but I think it depends on your province. My common-law spouse (sponsor) was able to add me (PA) to her BC MSP starting this month. All we had to do was upload our PR fee receipt from August to her (sponsor's) online account. I would give your Provincial Health Insurance a call and check with them.

Yes, I see your point.

For British Columbia see: https://www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/...ts/eligibility-and-enrolment/are-you-eligible

So @tramanh9626, it all comes down to the province you're living in.

This is a good question. How long do you think it will take to get the Sin number? What is the procedure if anyone knows?
You have to visit Service Canada with all your papers and you will get SIN in less than 15 mins. Usually the office will be free on weekdays.
 
"You applied for permanent residence and Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) confirmed that you meet the eligibility requirements to apply for permanent residence in Canada. This means that you have "approval-in-principle." "- I read this line for OHIP eligibility in the link below.

Does the email we received(AOR) is same as / refered approval-in-principle?

From what Ive read and understand, The AOR is just an acknowledgement that they have recieved and have started processing the application, The AIP will be seperate, nearer the end of the application process.

@Manny777 that's why column E on the spreadsheet is "AOR" as opposed to column T "Approved in Principle".

Is it really that no one else has received the OWP approval since Monday? Or is no one updating the spreadsheet? :confused: Seems like they've ground to a halt. :eek:
there was movement in the delayed june cases so hopefully it will just be one big batch tomorrow...

I'd like to know also. Based on the spreadsheet, it seems that as of yesterday, the tail end of July are getting theirs. So it should now move to August. I think September is still a ways off.
 
Guys I'm going to visit U.S for a day next week and will return. What do you guys think?

I applied for PR+OWP inland and Study visa outland. None of them are approved yet.

I'm from a visa exempt country which means I can ask for a visitor visa at the border. I don't have to apply online.

I'm just curious if they border officer will let me in if I explain that I visited U.S just for biometrics.

Thanks
