Assuming you submitted WP extension application before your original WP expired, you are now in Implied status which allows you to stay and work legally in Canada. If so you can apply for PR now. If you are not in Implied status, better wait until you have a legal status in Canada.

I have seen some cases where applicants do not get AOR but after 4-5 months or so gets MR directly. So this may not be an issue as such. But I can understand the peace of mind that an AOR email brings to you. Did you try calling the CIC help desk? A file number may already be available and if...

Perfect, thank you! :)

Congratulations! For getting the visa stamped in person, we do not need a separate email confirmation from Detroit, do we? Just the PPR email should suffice?

Considering the subject says 'Ready for Visa', I would think you're good. Especially as they have asked you to send the passport and RPRF. Congratulations, looks like just a matter of few weeks and you'd be a PR!

I had submitted the application without an affidavit. I did get the AOR, so must have passed initial screening. I know similar cases where applicants went through fine and received their PR as well.

You need a PCC for every country other than Canada where you have lived more than 6 months. So you need PCC for India which you can get either from India through a local police station or from the Indian Consulate in Toronto. I'd suggest the consulate as you have been in Canada for a fairly long...

As Jes_ON suggested, try to avoid geting into restoration phase. It can take longer than normal WP extension and you'd be waiting without work during this phase. As per CIC call center it can take anywhere between normal WP extension times as listed in CIC website + 8 to 16 weeks on top. If...

Hi nat.panic, Which DMP are you going to? Did they say where the results will be sent to? Even I applied from Canada but in Bangalore now and wondering whether to do my medicals in advance. Let me know how it goes.

Mandatory documents to prove experience as part of CEC application include - latest T4 Slip, latest NOA and recent reference letter from employer clearing indicating weekly working hours, duties and responsibilities etc. Pay stubs are more of an additional supporting document. Not mandatory as...

In the absence of a PR card, you can apply for a Travel Document as per below link. However, if you are returning to Canada soon, just get the PR visa stamped now and do the landing when you return. This can be done provided the PR Visa is valid for that long of course...

Hi Jatts, As I was in implied status when I applied, I filled in my status as 'Worker'. 'To Date' was filled as the current date when the application was made. Current WP processing times as per CIC website can be found in below link (WP extension, 53 days for online and 93 days for paper...

With the current trend, most applicants receive MR in 3-4 months after receiving AOR. As far as MR to PPR is concerned, the wait time can vary considerably on a case by case basis. A fair number of applicants get PPR within 1-3 months after MR but it can take up to an year or more for some...

Usually CIC continues processing the application at CPP-O itself even if you move out of Canada while your application is in process.

MR comes from your processing visa office. Assuming your file is with CPP-O, you can expect the MR from ottpilot-immigration @ cic.gc.ca.

Which city do you intent to go for medicals at? Do let us know how it goes.

When I applied I did not have a valid WP. I was under implied status. The old one had expired and I sent a copy of it along with my application.

Usually the entire file gets processed at the same visa office, so in your case I'd expect it all to go to CPP-O. When the time for PPR comes, CIC expects all passports to be submitted together to the visa office, that is Detroit in your case.

Yes, I did include my expired WP. As per the checklist, you should include the most recent WP you have. This along with latest NOA and Employer Letter would help them verify your work experience.
