    A story: "It's home, and I don't want to leave."

    He is probably getting close to no points out of the 100/110 of the age factor and I think a PhD doesn't get extra points over an MSc. Based on the previous score cutoffs, without an LMIA or a provincial nomination you must be on your early 30's or younger to get selected.

    Canadian embassy calling for PR solicitation

    They probably got your number from one of your previous posts on the "NOVA SCOTIA Provincial Nominee Program 2016 pool" and "Whatsapp Group- 2016 Intending Provincial Nominee Applicants" threads. Be careful how and what personal information you share in an anonymous public website; seeing...

    When my paranoia kicks in, I believe they are waiting for me to pay for the BOWP before they make a final decision haha.

    URGENT HELP plssss

    No appointment was necessary; it was a first-come, first-served counter. Just google Canada Place Edmonton; they have a bunch of government offices inside and I don't remember where exactly I was told to go.

    URGENT HELP plssss

    I got a reprint of my study permit somewhere inside Canada Place in Edmonton 4-5 years ago because the agent who printed it at the port of entry did a terrible job at it so the text wasn't properly aligned with the text fields and the Service Canada Centre office was refusing to issue me a SIN...

    AOR JAN 2016 - let's get together

    It has been in progress since February I believe due to the Mexican PCC which cannot be requested without a letter from CIC. I am thinking now they are actually doing the full BG check.

    AOR JAN 2016 - let's get together

    Yesterday I saw the status of my application go to "Updated" then go back to "Submitted" without any e-mail or visible changes. Today I just got the e-mail from CIC about my application being updated still with no visible changes.

    Police certificate Mexico

    I think they have a fixed day of the month to send batches of requests to the PGR as well as another fixed day to send them to the VO's so the total processing time can be between 1-2 months depending on when they receive your documents.

    Police Certificate in 90 days???

    I got the CIC request on Feb 16th, 2016 and the PCC was sent by the Canadian Embassy in Mexico City to my VO on Apr 8th, 2016. I think they have a fixed day of the month to send batches of requests to the PGR as well as another fixed day to send them to the VO's so the total processing time can...

    FBI PCC 13-15 Weeks - Need Advice!

    When I requested mine in September last year, I got it in 13-14 weeks, it was definitely more than 3 months after I sent the fingerprints. They really take as long as they mention on their website. My credit card didn't get charged until a week before I got it in the mail, which I assume was the...

    Landing by foot in Vancouver

    There is a bus that stops at 8th Ave and King George Blvd near the Peace Arch Provincial Park and then you have to walk for a bit but definitely doable. I crossed that border by bicycle, which is a shared line with pedestrians, early this year so you can definitely do it. The immigration officer...

    Please Advise - CRS Score 455

    I had 454 points, created my profile on Dec 8th, 2015, and got ITA on Jan 13th, 2016. From ITA to the final case decision should be less than 6 months so I think you are pretty safe.

    Mexico Police clearance

    My e-mail, full name, application number, and UCI, was in the "Request letter" pdf from CIC asking me to provide the Mexican Police Certificate, which I sent to Mexico City together with my fingerprints, passport copy, and photos. They don't update you on anything, though. If you want...
