1. You wait for them to contact you telling they've either a) received your application or b) approved the sponsor. Some people get both of these, some only the latter. If you provided an e-mail address this communication will most likely happen by email. 2. You wait some more. At this point you...

That makes no sense. 120 days after August 26th, 2015 is December 24th, 2015. Either the numbers of days are incorrect, or the data they just updated is out of date, even though it says that it was updated yesterday.

Sorry if it seemed like the question was directed at you - I meant to ask it from those who have recently received their COPRs in Canada. I'm waiting for mine as well and was wondering if they'll just leave it in the mailbox, or if I'll need to either be home to sign for it or pick it up from...

For the COPRs that are sent from London to Canada, do you need to sign for it when receiving?

Assuming you're looking to do a standard 4-year undergraduate degree, 72k CAD should be enough for tuition fees. I go to Memorial and the international tuition is a little under $5k per semester with a full course load of 5 courses per semester. The tuition may increase in the near future...

That's the new size so you should be good. When I got my pics taken in July the specification still said 35x45 mm.

My ECAS shows exactly the same. It hasn't been as long since my December 17th DM, but I would like to get my hands on that COPR as well...

Have you already applied outland? If not, you should do so as soon as possible - many applications through the London visa office have been processed in just 4-5 months recently, so you could be a PR shortly after or even before your IEC visa expires if you send in the application soon.

I just called CIC to book a landing interview. (First time ever that I got through with no wait time at all! Yay for New Year's Eve!) I haven't actually received my COPR yet, but thankfully the agent didn't ask if I had, and placed me in the interview queue for the local office. Should take...

Congratulations Andrew and taffy, so happy that it's finally all over for you two!

The OP is preparing a spousal sponsorship application, so there will be no cap to worry about. Personally I would send it a day or two later just to be safe - one day won't make a huge difference in what's going to be a several month long wait. But I could be wrong.

Not everyone has access to a land border.

Please don't spread misinformation. The CIC Twitter account does talk about the refugees, but nowhere does it say that all resources have been transferred to processing the refugee applications. Clearly they're still processing other applicants as well, since the processing times are updated...

Thank you! I'll try to call CIC again and book the interview.

Were you able to book the landing interview before receiving your COPR in the mail? I called CIC after we got DM, asking about the interview waiting times for our local CIC office, and the agent sounded like I wouldn't be able to actually book the interview before I have my COPR. DM on December...

Only inland applicants can get an open work permit.

You may get AOR1 earlier than 2-3 months after sending the application. It took a month for us to receive AOR1, and another month from that to receive SA. But some people never receive AOR1, just SA.

LVO these past two months: Hopefully everyone still without a DM gets one ASAP!

We received AOR from Mississauga about a month after sending in the application, and then SA another month after that. If the "Sponsorship Application Status" side of ECAS says "In Process", the "Permanent Residence Application Status" says Application Received, and you haven't received a...

Note that the website for the processing times hasn't been updated since December 1st. If they were working on applications received October 5th back when it was updated on December 1st, it makes sense that applications from late October would have been approved recently. No idea why you haven't...
