Hi all,
At 1:30pm yesterday, I got the phone call I've been waiting for, for like ever! IRCC case agent confirmed some very basic details, DOB, whenI first entered Canada and have I left since (No!). PR was verbally confirmed on the spot and then received that wonderful letter about 30 minutes later!
It has been the most surreal day, at work for the night shift not stressing about any updates, it's done. The feeling is way better than I can describe it. Now, I'm trying to get a SIN through a Service Canada appointment rather than applying online as I've heard horror stories about people waiting 21 days, phoning them up and then being told to reapply again.
Either way, it's done and these formalities including the PR card will follow shortly. I'm praying the rest of you finally get over the line who are well overdue, we've waited for too long some of us. Almost there, it's worth the wait and is one of the best feelings you'll ever have!
All the very best!
Steven
