What armoured said. I recommend watching this video. This Youtuber is my go to guy for my whole application process. I also don't have a birth certificate as I am a war refugee moving from camp to camp. Luckily my parent still keep a bio data sheet recorded where I was born and such so I...

Yup, above poster is about right. As long as it shows both of you and your wife communication. For my application, I actually FORGOT (LOL) to attach our messenger conversations when submitted and still got my PR approved. Our application basically has no conversations attached beside photos only...

Hi Rocklobser, sorry to bother you. So I was reading through the letter that came with my COPR and it says two lists of goods are required. How would I go in getting this lists? I go to the two websites listed in the letter and it just led me to the home page lol. If you can direct me in the...

I am from visa-exempted country so IRCC does not required me to send my actual passport, but to send a photo copy of it. And yes, I received my photo copy of my passport back to me along with the COPR. :D It took 2 months and 17 days from being process to COPR in hand for me.

Ah, if you are inland then I am not sure either since I am or was outland. My passport request letter is actually title "Information Letter" lol, and it's at the bottom of that same page on GCkey along with the other letters (medical, biometrics, pre-arrival, etc...). Although, part B of my...

Yes, technically your documentations will be processed at VO Ottawa, but it should go through your nearest VAC first (in this case, New York or Los Angeles). You and me should have the same passport request letter with the same instruction unless your case is different somehow. This is what it...

I am also from the US. My passport request letter stated that I should not be sending my package to CPC-Ottawa, but to send to either the New York VAC or Los Angeles VAC. Either the New York VAC or Los Angeles VAC (whichever you pick) will forward your package to CPC-Ottawa for processing. Are...

Your passport was not signed. This means that your package (passport, photos, etc...) has been delivered and signed (signing as in receiving the package from the courier) by someone at the VAC. The VAC will then send your package to CPC-Ottawa for processing. You should follow up with the VAC to...

It means you should have gotten a passport request letter telling you to send in your passport for stamp if you have not already done that. If you are using GCkey (which I am assuming you are), the request letter should be at the bottom of that same screen. If you already sent in your passport...

Congratz again! Just saw your timeline and you guys indeed deserved the fast COPR processing!

Thank you so much for the information. Cheer!

Wow, that was such a short wait for you guys! Congratz! I believe the last post you posted about dropping off the package was last Thursday. Its only been 5 days. It looks like they are clearing up files haha.

Thank you very much Armoured. I feel much relief now. I'll be landing in Calgary YYC, wondering if they have service Canada in the airport there.

I joined a discord for Canada immigration and this is how it went when I asked the peeps there (around 5k+) lol (long wall of text): "Hello everyone, I am a US citizen and had just been approved for PR. My COPR will be delivered to me on Monday. I believe I will have to do my official landing...

That's awesome man! Do you mind sharing your experience going through immigration at the airport? Like, what are the required documents? Did you went to the kiosk first and then got directed to an officer? How long do you have to wait? What kind of questions they asked you? Sorry for bombarding...
