I went to the border and became a PR this past weekend through BC PNP employer driven stream - skilled worker. I have been unhappy at my job for the past year. There have been lots of changes and a high employee turnover. I stayed because I did not want to jeopardise my PR and have to start...

Did you end up doing the landing in Victoria?? I am thinking about taking the ferry to Port Angeles for the day and coming back to activate PR.. seems like it's the cheapest option for me vs. taking my car on the ferry to Vancouver and driving down to the border.

Congarts everyone! Is it true PPR comes in 'batches'? If so, how long until the next batch?

Received an email yesterday saying that it was a technical error and the medical report and IME will be linked in due course. (After I submitted a CSE for it). No other update but at least theyve acknowledged it?

Same issue here - maybe this will prompt someone to review our files and they'll see/update our med results soon? (I live in hope!)

Hello, are you saying that it takes 60 days to get your PR card in the mail after you've crossed the border? Do you know if you are still able to travel out of Canada during this time (after you've crossed the border and been accepted as a PR but haven't received PR card yet) - for example if I...

Good to know people are in the same situation .... not panicking, but it's just frustrating - if I had known I would have done an upfront medical 3 months ago and maybe it would be updated by now!! #justventing

Did they send you an email to say medical has been passed? Or do you just need to keep checking my CIC to see an update?

I emailed my doctor today to explain the situation, and asked him to resubmit my medical under the new IME number. This was his response: "The government specifically asked panel doctors not to submit the same medical under two different numbers. The procedure is for me to send an e-mail to...

Hello, this makes sense, especially because in a lot of our cases the PNP nomination letter expires long before we actually get PR - but do you have reference of this? When you speak to the border agent to get your PR once you've been approved, can they not ask you if you have the same job as...

I'm in the same situation :( I sent through a case specific inquiry on Friday so hopefully I hear back... I hope it doesn't take 90 days :(

Me too! Med Request 1 Feb 28, Med done March 9th, Second medical request March 12th. I think it's a glitch so I'm not going to bother calling right now. I'll wait until my Medical results get uploaded, which the doctor's office said takes about 2 weeks.

I have decided to renew it mainly because I want to go to the states for a trip. But im curious- What about implied status in this situation? My understanding was that as long as you stay in Canada you are on implied status until a decision is made..

My work permit expires in June too! Received MR last week and I have my medical booked for this coming Friday. I'm not sure if I will need to apply for another BOWP or if its likely I'll get PR by then?

Application Received February 15, 2017 AOR March 27, 2017 Email on Dec 1, 2017 requesting additional docs (police certificate) Still waiting for medical request! Hopefully get it in the next few weeks or so!

Hi guys, I have had my working holiday visa approved (yay!!!) according to the status field of the myCIC log in being updated this morning. Does anyone know how long till I should expect to receive the actual documentation now? (Basically my PoE letter) Thanks, Stacey

Super! Thanks for responding!

Hi, New Zealand Citizen here. From August 2012-2014 I worked in Alberta on a work permit. I am currently in the permanent residency express entry pool on the basis of fitting the canadian experience class. I have a relatively low score compared with some of the others and I don't just want...

I will be sitting the language test on the 7th of Feb. Can I make an EE profile and record my IELTS results in there later, or do I have to do the test first and get my results before I make an EE profile? Thank you.
