I wanted to update the thread that last week I got an email from IRCC that my PR card has been dispatched. It's been around 6 months. Also, my wife and kids' PR card is still under processing.

I haven't yet received the PR card. Will update once I receive it.

I have only ever heard of one experience where someone was turned away and he eventually was able to soft land in the second try. I don't want to get into an argument but I want to make sure people who are trying to soft land are not scared away. I know how stressful soft landing can be (last...

This depends on the officer at the POE. I did successfully complete my PR landing today. Clearly told officer (infact twice - to both officers with whom I interacted with) that I will like to return immediately if possible and was allowed to do it. Also my PR card was applied and will be sent to...
