Your safest bet is to contact IRCC to let them know of your travel plans and when you are expected to be back. You can no longer use a land crossing to complete the COPR process (flag poling). Reply to the portal 1 email address and let them know.

Your big mistake was thinking the ECPR was going to be issued in days. That being said you have to make the decision to leave for the trip or not. How long will you be in the US for? Depending on the timeframe you could be back in Canada and still be waiting on the ECOPR. Once the ECOPR has...

Apologies your calculation of 42 weeks as correct. I had to do it manually to make sure. Following it to the T means you have the employment records to indicate that you have the hours that you are claiming. Document proof. Again your safest bet is not to accept any invitation given before you...

Ok, I can already see an error in your calculations. Lets look at your first job, it says your employment ended May 26, 2023. So why in the world are you recording it as 42 full weeks when its roughly 9 months? if that is incorrect then your November 61 full weeks is also incorrect. Your...

Absolutely NOT! That was an unreasonable time out of the country. Standard paid leave is 2 weeks and all days are counted towards CEC. You made the wrong decision spending 3 months in India, you can explain this in your application. But beware, 3 months vacation (paid or not) is not the same as...

The correct thing to do is add your India vacation address. Your travel history always be document which will show consistency. There is nothing wrong with leaving one address and returning to a new address. The important thing is not to leave any gaps. If they need clarification, IRCC will ask...

That IRCC officer gave you so much room to prove your case in the SOWP and you simply failed. While it is not mentioned in their decision, I guarantee that they checked the PR application you submitted and noted again that the spouse/girlfriend was nowhere to be found lol. On your own, the PR...

There is always a chance of rejection right up to the point of actually getting the COPR. Worrying about rejection is a waste of time unless you know that there is something in your application that COULD warrant a rejection. Additionally asking about approval timeline is also a waste of time...

You are covered under implied status and you can continue to work while they send you the work permission letter. Your only problem could be with the employer. Some employers want you to have the letter in had. Employers who are more experienced in the immigration process understands that the...

@JadeTiger is correct, that 1 month would clearly not count towards CEC. Think of it this way, if you were originally living in another country and got a job working remotely for a Canadian company - would you see this as CEC? No you would not.

First of all, why would you HOLIDAY for 5 months when your PR status is in the final stages. That's simple ridicules! To your question on the first email, I am assuming it's Portal 1. This required you to indicate if you were in Canada or not. If not, then tell them when you will return. That is...

If you already submitted the file without the experience, why do you want to add it now? In any event, what you have sounds like good enough proof. You must also state the company has now closed its operations.

This is true, you should not include them in the PR application. Only list them as non-accompanying, this also means you have to upload their Canadian birth certificate as proof. I have 2 sons that were born in Canada and they both were listed as non-accompanying. Look at my signature.

The date you should use is the day you got confirmation from the University/college that you completed your program. Not the day you graduated. This means you could have only completed the program if you completed your co-op. Additionally, if you were not given confirmation that you completed...

Congratulations. If you have received PPR your are golden. When the VAC/Embassy gets the passports they will give you the PR visa and the COPR. You will see both when you get the passports back. The tracker is not always up to date, so don't worry about that.

This should not be an issue. The application asks for completed education and base on the dates the MBA was not completed. I don't see this as an issue for your PR application now.

When you receive portal 1 IRCC will ask you to declare if you are inside or outside of Canada. If you declare that you are inside while you are not in the country that is misrepresentation. You will definitely have issues with border agents when you return. Additionally, if you declare that you...

You made the right decision providing the whole truth, explaining yourself and asking for forgiveness on the matter. For future application, if they do not ask you about unauthorized work, do not volunteer the information. Over sharing can also affect. If they want to know if you worked outside...

I see. You are going to need some expert advise on this. From what I know, self-employment would not count towards CEC.

Yes you can claim the short term contract as CEC.
