The UCI should be the same since it's the "Unique Client Identifier". Before sending out the whole application, I already had a UCI number since I had requested a new citizenship card a few years ago (I am the sponsor) so I already had a UCI number. The same applied to my boyfriend (the...

Yeah that's what I was under the impression, that no communication would be made until AIP, but then again, their process is completely different for everyone. I agree. I also think that they just gave you an extension regardless of the PR application. It's probably best not to over think...

Hi there, welcome to the forum! check out this thread: http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/2012-quebec-inland-applicants-t98657.0.html It's specifically for Inland applications sent out through Quebec. Good luck!

Oh congratulations! That is a little strange. I also thought that permits came at the same time as AIP. Did you send the study permit along with PR application or was it a separate application? Did you actually apply for a study permit with a CAQ and all or did you apply to extend your...

Thanks mdna for updating the chart. And, welcome to all the new members! Best of luck to everyone! ;)

Hey everyone, mdna created a group for 2012 inland Quebec applicants (http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/2012-quebec-inland-applicants-t98657.45.html) I know that most of you on this thread are from 2010-2011, but if you wouldn't mind, it would be great if the late...

Yeah, there really is no consistency in the process. I also noticed that most QC applicants were only receiving the letter later on in the process when they received AIP, just like you mentioned. Perhaps we could get some of the 2011 QC applicants to join the thread since there doesn't seem to...

I think that the CIC heard my complaints! They updated their website and it now says that they're working on applications received on September 20th, 2011. :D :D :D

:D:D:D Well it was about time. I kept complaining about that practically on a daily basis! But no, no updates :(

Hadn't heard of this case before but thanks for sharing! It's definitely interesting to see both sides of a story for a change!

I was just thinking the same! :'( I think they're all on vacation! And I really want CIC to update their processing times. It drives me nuts that it says 11 months on the website for the 1st step, yet it still says that they're processing April 2011, when we know that some people from June...

Hi there, As far as I know, once you land, you're a permanent resident and you can move across the country. I have two uncles in Canada, one which landed in Quebec and the other in Ontario and both ended up settling down in the opposite province roughly a month after landing (Many many years...

Hi, You don't have to be "sworn in" and have to take a test to become a naturalized Canadian if you were under 18. I was a child when my parents became Canadian citizens and they were "sworn in" and had to take a test but not me. So Nigea could be a naturalized citizen rather than by descent...

It depends on the form. If it's the undertaking, then yes he is the one signing the agreement; if it's the CSQ application, then it is you, the sponsored person, that has to sign since you are asking for a CSQ, etc. Unfortunately, unless you're more specific about which forms you're having...

I agree with everyone. I was furious when I saw the post the first time, to the point that I actually reported you to the moderator shortly after reading it. I'm still a little angry because it's that kind of people that make this whole process harder for those that are actually in genuine...

No not yet. The first year is up at the end of August. (But we already renewed it for a second year) We were told by a visa officer, who has been giving us tips and unofficially helping us out, that it didn't matter because we had letters proving that we were living together before and that the...

Haha, thanks! Yeah I definitely hope that it's enough. The lease doesn't show 12 months since it had only been 5 months (at the time of the application) that we were living in our apartment at that point. However, we mentioned that we had the intention of renewing our lease at the end of the...

Oh wow, I just read this thread and now I'm starting to worry. :o My boyfriend and I sent out our inland application in February 2012 under common-law as well and we have about the same kind of proof as you do with the exception that we have a lease together and I am the sole beneficiary of...

Hi, I'm not sure what you're talking about but if you're referring to the undertaking application to the MICC, then yes, you are correct, it cannot be done online. You must simply fill out the form with your card information and when they receive it, they will process it and charge your...

Yeah I know that it's definitely easier said than done. That said, I still check ecas on a daily basis even though I know that I most likely shouldn't hear from them until January...
