You need a reply from the experts on this...try emailing PMM....he is probably the most knowledgeable person on this forum and will give you a short precise answer. Personally...I have absolutely no idea....and I thought i knew a bit about Canadian Immigration....just shows you how ignorant...

Where does it state you cannot have more than one application in at a time???? I have reviewed all the information and as long as you pay the correct fee for an application, it appears that you can have as many different application status's as you want. All depends on how much money you have...

There are many threads on this forum concerning leaving Canada whilst awaiting an Inland approval. Personally, I would not take the risk of losing my status inland and having the application refused because for whatever reason you could not return to Canada if you leave. Others have done it...

I doubt it....but to be on the safe side i would just put what you have put here. They want to make sure that you have no other dependents....ie wife's, children etc....that could be sponsored in the future...also that any previous relationships are now over and do not have any bearing in your...

Congrats to all of you that have landed or about to. I landed 20th May.....holding that COPR in my hand felt like a huge weight off my shoulders. Good luck to you all

Hey Happy COPR Day to you.....same day as mine.......and dam that virtue I want it all and I want it NOW....ha ha ha ha..... Great feeling to hold that paper though....ain't it.

PMM...I sure as hell hope you are right....am dam well routing for this figure to be wrong and you be right. 30 days sounds just fine to me

Thaqnk you PMM....I did not realiuse this....CIC at the time told me only visa exempt country nationals could do this. I appreciare the added information....with respect

I didn't try....i fought hard.....paid my money did my paperwork and waited to be legal. It was hard...at times I really wanted to break the law..but I knew I was not a criminal. If being a crinimal makes you happy....go for it.....for me I did it the legal way and feel happy I am now a legal...

Yes...flagpole means that a person crosses over the Canadian/USA border.....arrives in the USA....tells the USA IO that they are flag poling....gets turned around and is able to re enter Canada and sort out any Immigration Documents needed. This can only be done if you are from a visa exempt...

Being in Canada illegally is a criminal offense....period....does that explain what I mean. So by being an illegal immigrant you are also a criminal.....sorry there is no grey area here...that is the Canadian Law...you break the law you are a criminal.

Just inform CIC first that you have no intention of sponsoring your husband and you now feel he married you just to get PR status in Canada. That will sort that...and once your husband realises that you have no intention of sponsoring him...chances are he will divorce you and find someone else...

really really hopes this is a big joke...for everyone's sake.

I have already landed i have my COPR paper, what I need for a SIN number is the visa attached to my passport that Inlanders don't get. Having asked around and spoken to a Canadian Customs Border Officer, it appears that I just have to wait a little more before I can start living in Canada as a...

Another bit of information should anyone be 'landing' from an internal Immigration Office in Canada and not a POE. Service Canada now say that even with your COPR, you cannot legally work until you get your SIN number and that will not be issued until you get your PR card. Yet the Immigration...

Thanks PMM...that was what I figured. Does seem highly illogical that Inlander's are discriminated against getting a SIN card immediately...ahhh well such is the logic of Immigration and Service Canada.

I landed today, May 20th 2010, Immigration Officer informed us that currently it is taking 12 weeks to get a PR card.

I landed today, inland at Vancouver Immigration center, received my PR documents and we were told the PR card will take 12 weeks currently to arrive. During this time. although we are legally entitled to work, Service Canada will not issue a SIN number unless you have both the PR doc and the...

I landed today.....inland at Vancouver....yeah for me....but seems there is one problem with landing inland....you are unable to get a SIN number until you receive your PR card....which we were told today is taking 12 weeks!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If you land at a POE then you get your PR docs and your...

The problem appears to be that because Service Canada is making it harder and harder to get approved LMO's, that Companies are now taking the PNP route instead. Although I cannot confirm this as fact, the amount of time people have had to wait for PNP approval since the start of 2010 has...
