    Possibility to work for the government/province/city

    Hi there! My opinion is as follows, and again this is only my opinion and advice. I believe any job that doesn't require handling secret or very sensitive government information will be har to get before becoming a PR or in some cases a citizen (which makes sense). Some jobs require a certain...

    Congratulations! Don't worry, if it was something to worry about she wouldn't have issued your Confirmation of Permanent Residence.

    Question about Certificate of identity

    Hi there! As a Permanent Resident with Protected Person status you will only be issued a Refugee Travel Document (the blue one) with a validity of 5 years instead of 2 years (since you're now a PR). The grey Certificate of Identity is only for persons with PR status (but are not refugees or...

    Refugee Travel Document - Questions and Answers

    I once got called to confirm something on the forms. It was from an unknown number. They are technically in Gatineau not Montreal. It might still be them though, I'm not sure. I would suggest to wait for another call tomorrow, otherwise call the helpline. Good luck!

    Postponed hearings timelines

    Unfortunately it's all a big show of politics. Of course this doesn't mean that her life wasn't in danger or that it wasn't proven to be in danger, I have no right to make this assumption. But the fact that Australia said that she will be processed like everyone else and Canada jumped to the...

    Hi there! It seems like your file is complete now. All you have to do is wait. Currently they are finalizing July-October 2017 applications. So I'm guessing you're not far away from hearing a response. Maybe a few more months. Good Luck!

    Renew Refugee Claimant Document

    As a matter of fact now you are able to renew your "Refugee Protection Claimant Document", this wasn't the case in the past or maybe there was a lack of information with regards to the process. Anyways, there was an update on January 8th, 2019 by IRCC were they made the process of renewing the...

    Buying real estate property

    Hey there! Yes of course you are entitled to buy a house/land. Even non residents are allowed to buy a house. Securing a mortgage might be a bit tricky though, if you're planning on applying for one. Good luck!

    Refugee Travel Document - Questions and Answers

    The only way to know for sure is to contact the embassy. I've heard of instances where people with American tourist visas had no issues transferring their visa into their travel document at the US embassy. But you would still need to apply the same way you apply for a new visa and let the...

    Travel to United States with RTD

    It depends on the officer in the US embassy/consulate. I read stories where they were accepted and other where they were refused. But I think if that person left the US legally, they'll have a better approval rate. Only way to know is for them to apply for a visa and see how it goes from there...

    the FBI clearance link is not working

    Oh you mean that's when they started processing your application. I thought you meant that they started processing August applications now. Thanks for the explanation though.

    Refugee Claimant Document Expired. Want to Renew Work Permit

    I've heard of some people claiming that they've renewed their RPCD. I don't know if they're true though. IRCC also extended the validity from 2 years to 4 years for the RPCD. Check this link...

    the FBI clearance link is not working

    It's not good to connect getting your dm with your PCC. Because it depends on the officer doing the preliminary checks on your file, orders differ. I would say a good rule of thumb is to expect your dm within 1.5 years from the date you applied. Good luck!

    Refugee Travel Document - Questions and Answers

    Yes it's not a problem as long as you're traveling with a valid Canadian RTD (as it allows entry back into Canada), but I would suggest that you take both your Notice of Decision and your Confirmation of Permanent Residence with you just as a precaution. Can you please share your timeline with...

    Background check timeline for refugee

    Usually it's between 2-6 months, unless you get selected for extra screening which might take up to a year and sometimes even longer (but this is rarely the case, most background checks are done within 2-6 months). One thing I also noticed recently that even if your application is ready to be...

    Work permit mail

    Wait until exactly 6 weeks have passed. If still nothing in mail then you can contact IRCC. It might also be because Canada Post is currently in labour negotiations. Good luck!
