Few question before I send my paper application today - 1. I printed the forms at home on my inkjet printer, using the best quality setting. The quality is not as good as laser printing. Will it be a problem with the bar codes? 2. My 7 year old son did not co-operate during the photo. He has jaw...

Do we need to include Work Visas that were not used? My company processed an employment visa for a South east asian country, which I did not eventually use. Do we have to mention in "History of immigration and citizenship status"? Honestly I cannot even find a copy of this old work permit from...

Thanks for the detailed responses. Regarding PR card, my PR card is expiring Feb 2023, and I will likely move to Seattle in March 2022. That does not fall under the 9 month time-frame for applying to renew the PR. I also understand, I cannot apply for PR extension from outside Canada. Is the...

We are a family of 3 (2 adults and 1 child) and applying for citizenship. My original plan was to apply for all 3 together via the paper forms since that's the only possible mode for family applications. I'm considering splitting, and applying for me, online to take advantage of the faster...

I'm a Canadian PR with a valid USA B1/B2 visa. I need to travel to Europe next month for a work related meeting. Since it will be summer vacation, I plan to drive with my family to my sister's house in new york, leave my family there and fly to Europe from NY. The question is, I will be driving...

I flagpoled at Sarnia last Saturday without any issues. I did spend more than an hour in the traffic on the bridge getting into the US and in the US CBP office to get the administrative denial form. However once I reached Canada, I was in and out in 20 minutes. There are hardly anyone in the office.

The previous discussions on the subject of landing in Niagara on a weekend was not very encouraging. Did not want to take the chance and landed in Sarnia today. The process was mostly painless, except it took 90 minutes to turn around at the US end because of the weekend crown going into the...

I'm currently on a work permit, living in GTA. I received my COPR and intend to land this weekend at one of the Niagara crossings. I've seen some postings, some even recently, that the CBSA is not allowing landing in Niagara on weekends. The letter from CIC warns of wait times at the PoE during...

I sent in my passport from Toronto to Ottawa last week. The tracker shows it was delivered on 19th. Is there any way to confirm if it was indeed received? Is there any update of status?

Got the email today to submit passports. AOR - 27th Nov MEP - 11th Dec Request for Additional documents (Police Clearance) - 11th Dec Submitted - 12th Dec PPR - by email - 15th Dec No updates on website other than MEP update. CEC Inland.

Thanks for the responses. Will upload it again, but nevertheless this is confusing and concerning.

AOR 26/11/2017 Today there was a request for a police clearance certificate. The strange thing is, I've already included the exact police clearance certificate along with the application and they are still requesting for it. The letter does not say what is wrong with the one i attached. Do I...

I'm filling out my application for EE and having query on the information I need to provide. In the past 10 years I've lived in 4 different countries other than my country of origin, India, including now in Canada and previously in Singapore. I understand, I do not have to fill the details of my...

I'm in Canada on a work permit and applied for Express Entry. Received ITA recently and preparing my documents for submission. Last month, I was convicted in Ontario for "Driving Motor Vehicle - Contravening Conditions" with 0 demerit points (original offence was "Handling handheld device while...

Yes, the agent confirmed there was a letter in the package. My forms and documents were prepared by a law firm in Canada and they had used the attorney's email address in the form.

My Work Permit was approved and the agent emailed me copied today. The package from the embassy also included the letter to pass on at the POE. Will receive my passport on Friday from New Delhi. Best of luck to the rest of you.

I did'nt receive any email. That's what my office immigration department asked me to. Is there a reason to worry? My office submitted in VFS New Delhi through our official travel agent. Yes, processing time is shorter and simpler, for example, no need for getting police clearance etc..
