Congrats! When do you plan on landing?

Congratulations!!! Yell if you need any help. :)

Hahahha. Just noticed that. Updated.

Well, it is not a problem. It is expensive. PR Visa is a single entry visa. Once you enter canada, it gets voided (The immigrant visa stamped in my Passport, at least is a one entry visa). Once you leave, the PR card is the travel document that lets you go back - and it takes up to 6-8 weeks...

It will be finished when we land ;-) But, actually, this is only the beggining of the Journey. Getting the Visas was just foreplay :D

Guys, Passport on hands. It took one week and one day the whole process. Got PPR on the 29th, went to my local VAC and left our passports there on the 30th. Passports went to Sao Paulo on the same day. They came back yesterday, 7th of December and I got them today, 8th of December Sweet. :)

I believe it depends on the mood of the officer doing your landing process. I would love to avoid bouncing there for just one week, but there is nothing else I can do. I believe that since my timeline was so tight, I wouldn't have a problem getting a TA. Let's see.

I have a friend living in North York. I'll have him mail it to me so I can go back. If they don't allow me to request a PR card at landing, I will have to leave Canada and request a travel authorization. Those are my options.

Thanks nonnemacher! For now, I am worried about the weather! Haha But we can definitely talk a bit - I will probably need all the help I can get. Maybe we should start a WhatsApp group.

Thank you! I was nominated in December last year, around 17th of december, and one year later, I am ready to land. Hope you get a lighter timeline! Everything will workout!

My medicals expire on the 28th, so there is no other option. I am reading about it now. I can make a list of everything that I have and plan to bring to canada, and I can enter with them whenever I feel like it. Apparently, thats the process. I will be there for just one week, to do the...

In my case, we are going to GTA. We want to stay around North York area. Quiet and close enough from downtown. We will land on the 26th, and will come back for final arrangements. Dont know when we will move for good yet.

Hey guys. I've been reading and reading and looks like they are all, in fact, pretty much the same. I am not in Canada yet - planning the move at the moment - but I decided to go with Scotiabank. Mainly two things: Seems reasonable to have a no fee unlimited regular transactions if you keep a...

Passports are on their way back to VAC. Tomorrow they might be here in Rio, hopefully. Fingers crossed. =)

I have one question. These goods to follow can be brought by yourself in a later time? Explaining: I am going to do a short landing in December and I will come back to my native country in a week. I intend to return to canada in March - If the goods i bring in my return (march) are in the...

Mine changed yesterday. No updates on the return of the passports, though.

The VAC officer told me they are taking up to 10 days to process PR passports. 5 days for temporary residents (tourism). I am monitoring it here. Mine got to Sao Paulo last thursday as well. Plane tickets bought, just waiting for the passport to return.

Gisa, your time will come! What I find interesting is that we have people up until april, no one in may, june, july and august. 4 months of no brazilian applying for PR? I just sent my passports yesterday. Let's see how long they will take. Hope my passports are back by december 16th as they...

I was at the VAC today. The officer told me 10 days. Let's see. Will let you know once mine is back.

I believe each case is different, and depends on the office reviewing your application.
