no, I haven't looked into recording the COPR (I'm concerned it's complicated and takes long...) Are you then suggesting I go through with it and correct those dates on the copr? what would happen if they did call me for an interview and noticed the copr dates are different than the first...

it just gives the landing date (which was 2 years later than the Copr wrong dates and 3 years later than the original first time ever in Canada date).

makes sense! I guess I just meant that if he gets on it next month or in April it still will be fine. And thank you all:)

And I guess it's ok to not renew a card until he is planning to travel, yes?

I never got the wrong first entry dates on my COPR fixed (it's a matter of one year, or less I think). The date I landed as PR is two years after those erroneous dates on the COPR and three years after the real first entry. Is it necessary to get those dates corrected before I apply for...

thank you very much :) he does fulfill the RO (only away from Canada for about 100 days in last 5 years) so I guess all will be good for him :)

Hi Ponga, thanks very much for answering! haha yes, of course! what I meant is that while it is needed for travel (and sometimes other things in certain provinces), letting a PR card expire does not mean that the status of the resident is in jeopardy, so once he applies to renew they won't...

Dear All, am I right that a distracted driving conviction, which is under the Ontario Highway Act, is NOT a criminal offense but a traffic offense (I think it was a couple of demerit points and 3 day license suspension or something like that), and so does not impact eligibility for applying for...

I'm just wondering if anyone can confirm for a worrywort I know beyond any doubt that an expired PR card does NOT cause trouble and does not mean his PR status is "expired" as well? He just realized his card expired about 3 months ago. He is living in Canada, only went for a short vacation, so...

Hi All, posting this for a friend. She got married a couple of years ago, assumed her husband's name in Ontario for the driving license, Ohip cards. Then changed name in her home country (this is a PR), got a new passport in that name, and then got her PR card updated in that name. CRA has the...

Aaz2019 try the web form instead, I don't think they have enough manpower to have someone actually pick up your call, whereas via the web form you'll probably get an answer, they are very good at replying, I think. I'm going to hold off a few more days because the web form I sent them, with the...

Anyone with a straightforward case also now way past the normal processing times? If processing time is indeed counted from the day they get the application in their mail room (and it's actual days and not business days) then I'm now about 43 days in (and about 20 days past the processing...

Well for me it's straightforward, or so I thought, I only want to change my name on it, and I've only been a pr two years all two of which I've been present here, as I've never left Canada. I'm hoping it's just the holiday season or something but I think I'll give them a call soon.

For me still in process and I'm now worried and a little annoyed. They got it in their mail room on nov 27th. Got AOR Dec 18th. Dec 20th got request to send also a copy of my driving license (I am renewing due to name change). I sent it the same day, no reply, I sent it again a few days later...

Thanks for this! Let's hope you're right;)

Oh I see! Any idea if this delays the application by a lot? They gave me 30 days to provide the doc and I sent it right away so if they don't acknowledge receipt of that then I wonder if at least I can hope to get dm before that 30 days (meaning that if I dont I'll know something was wrong with...

I got my AOR on Dec 18th, but on Dec 20th they asked my for a copy of my provincial driving license. Any idea why? I didn't submit it with the application (,which is due to a name change). They gave an email I can send it to and I did on the 20th, but I haven't received any confirmation of...

Thanks Rel! That would be great! Ok so I'm not going to lose hope :)

Hi all, Having looked through this thread it looks like aor for a pr card renewal takes time to arrive, even via email? The website boasts that processing time is 26 days but I'm assuming that's 26 days after receiving aor. I sent my application via courier and they got it Nov 27th and I...

Hi all, Does anyone know how long it takes to get aor after sending a pr card renewal application these days? The website boasts that processing time is 26 days but I'm assuming that's 26 days after receiving aor. I sent my application via courier and they got it Nov 27th and I haven't heard...
