    You certainly have to add your spouse to your application right now. In case you get your immigrant visa without adding her and then land, it would be considered misrepresentation and would jeopardize your PR status. The border officer would verify all the details on your COPR when you land and...

    You could show that you were a full time research assistant assuming your course requirements were completed. That is, you work full time on-campus as a RA/TA.

    If I'm not mistaken, OP's letter was actually accepted by the visa office and his/her application was approved under the CEC Class !!!. Apparently, he/she also used this letter to demonstrate the intention of leaving Quebec Please go back and check previous posts before you pass any judgements.

    Canadapost Tracking Status for Passport

    I had a similar status and all it means is that your package has reached the PO box. In my case, the package was 'ready for pick up' on the 8th of Jan and on the 9th, it was 'out for delivery' and was delivered around noon. Give it one more day and check back on Monday afternoon
