    Citizenship application REFUSAL for residents in Quebec with PR obtained through EE

    To give you further clarity @waitin_4_csq, based on my understanding, which could be seen as "hogwash" yet again, I have created a few example cases: An EE applicant who applied for PR from Quebec (not through Quebec) showed the intention to settle outside Quebec but never moved out of the...

    Citizenship application REFUSAL for residents in Quebec with PR obtained through EE

    I am sorry if it all sounds absurd or "hogwash" to you or anyone else, but there have been cases where PRs were cancelled after the grant just because the applicants changed their address to receive their PR cards from Ontario to Quebec. All I mean is that the Charter doesn't guarantee that...

    Citizenship application REFUSAL for residents in Quebec with PR obtained through EE

    Thank you, @dpenabill, for providing clarity. However, when I mentioned that the Charter of Freedom doesn't apply, I was referring to this specific situation (Citizenship application), not as a whole, meaning that Charter of Freedom doesn't guarantee that you'll be granted citizenship if you...

    Citizenship application REFUSAL for residents in Quebec with PR obtained through EE

    No, it is not program-specific. If you're referring to the Charter of Rights and Freedoms (which also applies to permanent residents), that doesn't apply in the case of Quebec due to its "special status" in the Canadian Constitution. Check the links: CEC...

    Citizenship application REFUSAL for residents in Quebec with PR obtained through EE

    Except for Quebec, which chooses its permanent residents itself. Otherwise, asking you to declare that you do not intend to live in Quebec while applying for PR would be useless. You can check YouTube videos by immigration lawyers ( e.g., ) explaining this in much greater detail than I can, as...

    PR confirmation portal timelines

    It’s just a cosmetic reason. The ugly truth is that they have most probably achieved their targets for this year, and can’t come clean to the applicants. Canadian immigration is a circus and they’re treating us like clowns. ECOPRs can be issued within 24 hrs and PR cards in a week time. Last...

    People with Montreal VO, can I assume you have received an email telling you that your application is in queue for finalization, and can’t be processed due to work capacity limit? I received it and all the recipients were BCC’d.

    PR confirmation portal timelines

    If you ever created your account on the PR portal voluntarily, you won’t receive any portal credentials and will be directed to use your existing credentials instead. In my case, I already had an account so they just sent me the same email. If you don remember your login credentials, just reset...

    *** CEC - JULY 2022 - APPLICANTS TIMELINE ***

    Congratulations! Got COPR or confirmation email? Cause both are different. eCOPR is issued after you submit your in Canada declaration, Canadian address, and photo.

    New PR confirmation portal

    Montreal is taking approximately 28 days after the submission of the address and photo, that’s what I observed for some applicants. I have been waiting since Oct 26.
