This was super helpful as a write-up! I just got my invite today and found that the 'documents to bring' was ambiguous. I'm really looking forward to copying / printing all my international travel details; I'm a geologist so I travel a lot! It's also interesting that the test centres are so far...

Hey, I'm new to this thread! I landed on June 24th in Montreal and haven't yet received my PR card. When I check my ECAS, it says Complete (but no mention of PR card). Do you think mine was sent already? The problem is that when I landed, I gave my address in Sept-Iles. I've since moved (moved...

I landed on June 24th and I haven't received my card yet either. I was told it should arrive August 2nd (6 weeks)... Yeah.

Congratulations on your news Prutus! It's been a long wait for you but I hope this moment makes up for it!

Just wondering, did you have to prove that you had sufficient funds? I'm not sure if I'm meant to take bank statements as well when I land or if I just need my COPR, CSQ, and passport.

I didn't have to post off my passport because I'm from a visa exempt country. I only had to email them a scanned copy of my ID page.

My COPR arrived today! HOORAY! Validity is until 27th August so I'm sticking with my original plans and landing at the end of June and then heading straight to Ottawa to celebrate my first Canada Day as a permanent resident. ;D :D

Decision made. Sweeeeeeeet. ;D

Just got an invite to take part in the SIEL with the MICC. Has anyone done the course? I've been in Quebec for 2.5 years - for those of you who have done the SIEL course, do you think I'll find it useful or do you think I'd know most of it already from living in Quebec?

Yes I did a few weeks ago and I sent it to the address they told me to send it back too, which was CPC-CTD-Ottawa@cic.gc.ca

OMG you guys, I'm so frustrated right now! I just had an email about my Schedule A: "The information you have provided in your schedule A is not consistent. In response to the question 8 you said that you worked in Sept Iles since 2/2012. But you only lived there since 1/2013 according to your...

What about your medical? When does that expire? It could be that they already extended the validity of your medical... Just a guess. What seems weird though is what would have happened if you'd gone closer to the 60 day limit for giving them the requested info. Would they have given you a more...

Unfortunately yes, you have to land within 6 days. Are you in Canada already or are you abroad?

I'm from a visa exempt country so my passport request was for a scanned copy of the photo page, not the original passport.

Ok cool, it's only been 2 weeks so I guess I'll resume the default setting of trying to be patient. ;)

For those of you who have COPR and are still around, how long did it take to arrive after passport request? Did you receive it by post or by email? Just wondering how much longer I have until I can truly settle down knowing I'm permanent... Cat

It was a scanned copy to be sent by email. I think it's because I renewed my passport (old one was expiring in April) and forgot to update them with the new one. Might have had COPR if I'd remembered. Oops.

Mine changed to In Process too at some point since Friday! We received your application for permanent residence on March 4, 2013. We started processing your application on February 27, 2014. Medical results have been received

I applied from Canada but I'm from the UK.

Just got PPR! Not sure why because I'm from an exempt country but relieved that the end is in sight! Did anyone else get a request for a scanned copy instead of paper?
