    Notification of COPR?

    Hi @ContactFront, Thanks for the reply! I'll be sure to keep an eye out for the PPR if/when the time comes. I definitely know from other applicant's stories that anything can happen in the time it takes to get to the PPR stage, so I'm remaining cautious until everything is done and dusted...

    Notification of COPR?

    Hey everyone, I'm not sure if anyone would even know the answers to the following questions, but just thought I would try and ask anyway, in the hope that someone might be able to shed some light. I am from a visa-exempt EU country and just wanted to try and have an idea of what I should be...

    September AOR join here

    Hey @shane1990, Reassuring to hear that I'm not the only CEC applicant stuck waiting it out at IP1! Unfortunately, I'm applying as a single applicant with no dependents, so any hopes of getting bumped up the CEC "queue" by CIC is outta the question for me, lol. Guess it's just a case of...

    September AOR join here

    Hi everyone, Has anyone who received their AOR in September (or even August) spent more than a month so far stuck in IP1 without any movement? I'm getting a little concerned as everyone seems to be flying past me, whilst I don't seem to have had any movement whatsoever in my CIC profile :(. I...

    Should/must I decline my ITA?

    A big thank you to @DelPiero07 and @mgnlky for your valuable feedback! :) I will indeed explain my errors by way of LOE, where needed/advised. Factoring in the removal of a few months for the situation with my last job before coming to Canada, it seems that my Foreign Work Experience Score (as...

    Should/must I decline my ITA?

    Hi everyone, I am at the stage of gathering documents for my e-APR, and have noticed some "errors"/discrepancies that were in my Express Entry profile, and wondered if it would be mandatory for me to decline my ITA and update/or create a new EE profile and wait it out again in the pool for...

    "Networking" while on visitor status?

    Thanks so much for you post Scylla! :) I will definitely heed your advice, and in fact, will ensure that any potential employer explicitly and fully understands the situation before I even set foot out of the house to meet anyone.

    "Networking" while on visitor status?

    Hi everyone, Can anyone see CIC taking issue with someone perhaps networking/marketing themselves to/(potentially) meeting with Canadian employers whilst on visitor status? I would of course make it clear in any communications with potential employers that I CANNOT and WOULD NOT be prepared...

    Ray of Hope - 69th Draw

    A huge congratulations to everyone who received (or, is about to receive) their ITA today! :) One week ago today, I was in your shoes and know how great a feeling it is when you see that you have made the cut-off score, and are one step closer to reaching your goal/dream! :) For those who...

    Inland vs. outland applications and international travel

    Hi everyone, I wondered if I could get some feedback on whether applying outland (which I'm leaning strongly toward) would be the better option for my particular set of circumstances. Originally, I had been under some confusion about what constituted an inland or outland application (and...

    Implied visitor status. Do I have it?

    Hi everyone, So I applied for visitor status before the expiry of my open work permit, as I found out that I would not be able to obtain a new work permit before the expiry of my old one, but wished to remain in Canada for a little while longer (without working). I am from a visa-exempt...

    Regaining worker status after IEC work permit expiry...

    Hi Scylla, Yep, I already knew a little while before my permit expired that the delays I encountered meant I wouldn't have met the deadlines/criteria for a bridging open work permit whilst I was still "in status" :(. Regarding a second IEC, sadly not... :(. I can never seem to find the link...

    Regaining worker status after IEC work permit expiry...

    Hi everyone, I have a major query which I couldn't seem to find the answer to online, or figure out on my own, so hope some of the experienced members or any CIC insiders here ;), could perhaps advise me. I will do my best to cover all the key points, whilst keeping this post as brief as I...

    TFSA contributions after SIN expiry.

    Hi everyone, Just wondered if anyone had ever made contributions to their TFSA after expiry of their SIN, and then had issues later on down the line? In particular, I'm curious about contributions made after expiry of temporary SINs which begin with the digit 9. Here's the thing... My...
