Did most people landed in Feb receive PR cards? I am trying to understand how long is the backlog. Edit: No one is March received it. So looking for Feb landers.

I think you pasted the post link by mistake?

The paper is thinner than the original, and as you can see in the image I attached in OP, it has the vertical line marks of the copier machines. I was questioned of the authenticity at two different ICBCs, they had to review it multiple times with lens before approving.

Do they give both the papers back? They took both papers, the one with the picture and the otger one, gave back the copy of the one without picture, and made us sign that.

I wonder if there would be any problem in future for not having the original COPR. Landed in March 2020, the COPR I signed is a photocopy of the original as identified by folks at ICBC. The officer probably mistaken the copy for original while making me sign it, so the sign is original but not...

Hey, I have similar issue, the COPR I signed is a photocopy of the original. The officer probably mistaken the copy for original while making me sign it. Is there a way to fix it? So far no problem with getting license, SIN, etc, but wondering if it would be an issue later. Problem is I landed...

Or your lease agreement, phone bill, bank statement?

Where would you recommend to find these places? Also, what to lookout for in the lease terms? We are looking for a short term place to stay in Vancouver until we figure where one of us would find employment. I think probably a month-to-month lease would be ideal for us.

My partner and I applied within seconds between each other, yet we had a difference of 350. Its in higher 26** series I don't believe that many people applying online (or even in Mail). Almost everyone who landed before March had a SIN. Don't think thousands of people applied on mail and online...

Applied April 6 online, SIN delivered in Mail today.

That's exactly what I did too. I applied online on 6th, no mail yet.

That's nice. What document did you provide for proof of address?

Which number do you use to call them? How would you send a new document for them to append? Email? I am thinking of proving a better proof of address.

Thought I would create this thread for new PRs to share experiences or ideas in finding housing amid this pandemic. It's been hard to get a SIN or a Job. Has the requirements been eased? Rents gone down?

Just got a call back from SC after submitting the form 24 hours ago, they said they cant provide any info as all the SIN requests are being processed by one office in NB and we have to contact them at 18662746627. I tried calling and no luck talking to someone. Let me know if someone is able to.

I understand I am not obligated to provide SIN to landlord, how likely do you think one is to be able to find a housing in Van/TTO without SIN? Also, you are missing employers. According to the Employment Insurance Regulations, which came into force on April 30, 2013, employees are required to...

Thats awesome you are able to secure a housing without a SIN. Can you share the trick please? In Vancouver/Toronto, it hard to secure a housing without a job (and a job requires a SIN).

Did you include a cover letter of some sort explaining the urgency? I remember reading that you have to justify the urgency for mail application. Not sure if its still a requirement.
