Unfortunately, no. Here's what the eligibility condition states - Applicants must demonstrate that they have at least two years of relevant experience during the period beginning five years before the date of the permanent resident application and ending on the day a determination is made on...

You need to pay the PR application fee right away, without which, they will not start processing your application. Payment of the Biometrics fee is optional at the beginning, but the immigration office stresses that if you do choose to pay it upfront, it will hasten the process.

I don't think it's a good idea to staple them. In fact, the instructions clearly say not to staple them or bind them in any manner whatsoever. I understand that this may cause some inconvenience and/or anxiety - it certainly did for me. I still went ahead and stacked up the unbound sheets in the...

Anyone applied from India? Have you received an AOR from both the Canada and the New Delhi offices? Or just one?

Thank you! When you say 'received message', I am assuming you mean the Acknowledgement of Receipt (AOR) in the form of an email or a letter. In the same email/letter, you will find your application number and the UCI (which, I presume, means Unique Client Identifier) printed.

Thank you, Nornor. Would the instructions to the linking process be in the AOR?

Hi, Is it possible (or necessary) to link the paper application under federal self-employed category to an online one? If yes, does doing so help in getting updates and/or sending requested documents subsequently? How is this done, if it is possible to do it at all? Thanks.

Hello, I'm a self-employed author, and I'm planning to apply for PR under the self-employed category. I am given to understand that if I am granted PR under this category, my family will be granted PR too. Now, my question is - does this definition of 'family' include my dependent mother too...

Hi All, I am a full-time author and columnist living and writing in India. I have twelve books published with leading publishers such as HarperCollins, Penguin and Hachette, and have been invited to speak at several literary festivals - couple of them being outside India. Although my publishers...
