My husband and I got married March 2020, covid times. We're not of the same culture. Our wedding was small, at home with immediate family from his side. We submitted our application in Dec. 2020, interview was June 2021 and he was approved at the interview. His COPR and visa were in his hand...

If you have any issues, let me know and I'll walk you through it. My husband (still) doesn't have his MB health card, but we were able to get his vax card. https://immunizationcard.manitoba.ca/#/

I'm not sure about UPS, but my husband got his PR card in 30 days.

Well, he's a pastry chef...and right now he's working 8 hours a week... he's been applying everywhere but it seems like with his resume and no references it's been a challenge or very limited hours wherever he goes. He will start some volunteer work in the new year but he's really stressed not...

As a new immigrant, how long did it take you to find work? What was your first job? My husband has been here 3 months and is having a tough time. He is currently working part time - well, less than part time. I don't know if it's typical or not.

It's not discrimination. It's a security risk. I'm sure people have tried to obtain PR to get in to high security work. So, it's just added protection to Canadian citizens. I'd be surprised if all countries don't have the same rules.

A friend of mine did at the start of December, but family class sponsorship.

This can really vary depending on the visa office. For example, my husband's VO was Paris. He had his interview on June 30 and received his PPR on July 2.

I thought my husband's english was good enough too. His tutor says his reading/writing is strongest. I think a lot of his issue is spoken comprehension... I think he himself just needs to slow down and listen. I'm not sure in your city where you would go to get the English assessment, but the...

My husband had a couple failed attempts at work, because of his English proficiency, but if they had issues they should have noticed that at interview rather than giving him a chance. His english isn't bad, it's fine conversationally, but someone will need to give him patience. He is starting...

Yes, but this is what shocks me in their processing time. We applied around the same time as you and we had PPR July 5, after a successful interview. I guess based on reading your previous response, there were a few things they likely needed to dig in to on your file. Hope you get that PPR...

Wow, you really had a lot of patience tested waiting for that AOR! I hope you get some good news soon!

This is a neverending glitch with them. I would just keep going back and retrying and eventually I would get in to the page that you have to click "i agree". Just go back, refresh, log in again....you may have to do it a bunch of times.

Our Paris file moved quickly. We sent our application December 15, 2020 and PPR was received on July 2, 2021 after interview. ETA: this was for Family Sponsorship.

I don't think it's necessarily bad news. I've spoken with many Canadian/Tunisian couples and in this kind of situation it just seems standard - often due to cultural differences. I say this, because in our case it seemed like a formality, the questions were not aggressive nor difficult -...

I think it will depend on how busy the VO is. Our office was Paris and they notified us one month ahead of time we would be interviewed. We were not put in a queue, just provided the date.

If this is a new application for your spouse to sponsor him as a PR, then yes you need to submit a new PCC.

yes, they send emails for everything.
