ladyjess, You would need to provide some more context here. Did CIC give you any information as to why? For example: expired background clearances, missing information, incorrect information, etc? It's hard for people to be able to give you a clear answer otherwise.

Wow rusty, that's awesome news! I also got super antsy and called CIC. She mentioned that if everything is complete, then no news is good news. So I'm not sure if I should expect any word or not. ??? We'll see :D

I second what was said above. However, they will probably stress that you are responsible for your Australian common-law husband financially, even if you two go separate ways. Just a heads up.

Most likely they will need another background check from Canada as the previous one I assume is expired and your spouse has actually lived in Canada prior to this application. There's a portion of the application that asks for background checks from your home country and all countries lived in...

So if you've already submitted your PR, then I would advise AGAINST leaving the country as they could always deny you re-entry into Canada and that's up to the discretion of the border guard you happen to encounter. In my opinion, I would file it and mention somewhere the reason for the delayed...

I was told a while back by the people at CIC (when I called) that they were opening applications for inland spousal received OCt 17. Anyone know what date they're opening now? Also how I could find that out without calling them? Thanks!

May Santa bring me some landed immigrant status :P I'll accept it even if it shows up late :P

Okay cool. Thanks ichbinella!

lol this discussion is turning into another strain. can we say it's hard to find a job in general? no need to worry about the details. that's my opinion at least. ;D

Hey if I submitted my app end of November, will I be able to check on it's status on the CIC website? Also, I submitted copies of the medical receipts as the Inland app directions say proof of medical exam (nothing about originals or copies). Will they stall my app to await the originals...

Thanks Sweden, perhaps I'll also call CIC

Okay not bad! You can always extend again at the end of the 9 months.

Hey gang, So one of my security clearances came today. Do I just send this to the same location as my Inland application and they add it to my file? How do I do this, basically, if anyone has done this before me :P Cheers

AWESOME!!!!! You made my day, possibly my month. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

My spouse is sponsoring me for Inland PR. She was employed for the last 6 months and has recently been laid off. Can she collect EI and still sponsor me while looking for work? I know that sponsors are disqualified if they are using social assistance. So, is EI social assitance? Thanks

Stressful to the max! But what to do? We want to be together with our spouses :)

In case anyone needs to get one of these, I thought I'd update the process. CIC's website says to send their generic application with fingerprints and 12,000 Ugsh. However! The price increased to 66,000 UG Shillings due to inflation of their currency. Additionally, they mentioned sending...

I filed my OWP with my PR app and just did some math, 6 months from submission was my start date and made my end date a year later. However, I attached an additional piece of paper saying that I was applying for OWP after receiving AIP. This negates having to fill in details like prospective...

I found the 'proof of communication' portion challenging as my wife and I are living together in Canada, I'm here on the visitors visa and have been extending it. We've literally lived together since the moment we met due to the circumstances of our initial meeting (met in Bhutan where we were...

Comflakes, I think CIC informs you when they check everything is accounted for. I believe this is the AOR. Not sure on how long it takes to receive that though. Anyone else have more advice to give? I'm still new to this process. Cheers
