    July 2020 - Citizenship application

    Not an expert on this and not sure where in the application this 'gap' is but while awaiting a decision you are on implied status and the previous visa you are on is valid until a decision is made on whatever you have applied for. So if this was part of your citizenship and you have to account...

    Sample Intent to reside outside Quebec Letter

    Hi, If you look around my old posts you'll see I've listed the lengths I went through in my letter. Essentially I sent a letter of resignation acknowledged by my employer that upon getting PR I would leave Quebec and I had a similar letter from my landlord. It seems you have a good case and...

    AOR JAN 2016 - let's get together

    The problem is the federal system says explicitly that it is not to be used to settle in the province of Quebec. On the other hand once you land you legally become a permanent resident and have all the rights of a Canadian which includes free movement in Canada. The issue arises when you want to...

    AOR JAN 2016 - let's get together

    Hi, Mine was not a particular case. I called CIC before the appointment and they told me to bring 2 photographs with me. Also before the officer started processing my file he asked if I had 2 photographs. He took only 1... I also saw a person at the same office returning with two photographs as...

    EE PR; Inland landing at CIC office (sharing experience)

    Hi, when you walk into the building there is a security guard on the left and you tell him that you wish to do your landing. He will ask you for your COPR document and he will give it to the staff and ask you to take a seat until your name is called. The security guard acted in a sense as a...

    Activating COPR Advice needed!

    Hi, Thanks for your reply. Very much appreciated. To clarify, it says CPC Ottawa, yes. I believe it also says Ottawa as my destination of choice. Not Ontario. I applied for PR using EE and qualified under CEC while living in Quebec. I decided I needed to move for career reasons and my not...

    AOR JAN 2016 - let's get together

    To everyone still waiting: If you are still in the process after 5-6 months the chances are highly unlikely that there are any problems with your application! If you submitted a good application at the beginning, your case isn't complicated, if you have given them the extra documents they...
