Sorry you lost 8 months of valuable time only because of your immigration consultant. Did you pay the consultant? If so, did you get your money back?

No, I did not have my money back It’s not much that I paid. I am more upset for wasting 7 months for nothing. But finger crossed this time

They should have given the money back as they screwed it up.
Anyways hope for the best.

Hi, I just started my online application. For police certificate, since I was in my home country right before landing in Canada, do I have to provide police certificate? I know that in paper version there is a note saying that I don't require to provide police certificate. But thete is no such a note in online version. Anyone, who applied online please advise.

I scanned a colour copy of the biographical data page of every passport held within the five year eligibility period. In the application, they will ask you to attach them in the travel documents or passports section of the application.

If you are applying Single, online application is the best option.

Hi all,

As I can't access the Google Doc, might as well throw my hat into the ring! Please add the below to the tracker:

Type: Online Application
Location: Maple, ON (part of Vaughan, just north of Toronto)
Physical Presence Days: 1096.5
Application: Single
Application sent: Aug 22,2021
Delivered: August 22, 2021

Also, to answer the question regarding passport pages, I concur with what's been said before. The online application I just submitted didn't have any request for anything aside from the bio page. Unsure why that differs from the paper version.

However, I didn't add my passport pages in additional docs simply because almost all of my international travel the past 5 years has been cross border between the US and Canada (with the exception of one trip to the UAE and India). I've never had my passport stamped for US-Canada travel, so I wouldn't have had much to add anyways.

Why do I have the sense this is going to take much longer than getting my PR a few years back?

Matt

Hello

I have some questions regarding online application. I was about to submit the application but I thought I'd browse this forum to see if I missed something and looks I have indeed overlooked something. Any advise will be greatly appreciated. I don't think I can look at this application anymore.

1. History of immigration and citizenship status -The application guide (Q13) states that one has to state the status held (student, employment/worker, refugee/protected person, permanent resident or citizen) in any other country than Canada.
However, I saw in one of the forum somewhere, which has a link to tweet from IRCC showing that we have to disclose all status, EVEN as a tourist. So does that mean, I have to disclose each and every vacation/holiday I took in my entire life as there is no 5 years period mention in this question? Of course, the absence is shown in the Physical Presence Calculator but even in this section?

IRCC tweet:

2. Document checklist: Do I have to fill this and submit it in additional documents?
