Got my prearrival letter 1st Feb. Does that mean Im approved? My account says background check in progress and final decision in progress.

Does receiving the letter mean approved then? I got mine 1st Feb and noticed the background check was in progress and final decision was in progress too. Has anyone actually used the services?

Last I heard about my application was the police certificate request 9th July. Heard nothing since. Is this normal?

Someone changed the layout of the spreadsheet. Anyone know how to get it back to colour coded?

Waiting for background check to start. What does that notification look like? anyone care to share an example?

So what if it takes longer than a year from the medical to be approved to enter?

Hi I was wondering what the rules were regarding when I have to enter Canada after my PR visa is issued. For example once my wife was approved to come to the UK she had about 3 months to enter. Also do I have to live in Canada for a certain amount of time with the PR visa for example do I have...

Hi I tried filling in my data in the spreadsheet. How do you know when your application has been transferred? The last message I got was asking for the police certificate which I sent in in July. Not heard anything since. Already passed my medical on 14th July. Looks like most people in the...

How will the Canadian government know that the baby is a Canadian citizen if they are requiring me to send a lot of documentation to prove it with a citizenship certificate?

Hi my application for spousal sponsorship visa is well underway I've done my medical and police check recently. My question is in regards to our first baby due to arrive close to when we want to move to canada. I am British and my wife is Canadian. We would like the baby to have a canadian...

Ok great thanks.

Yes thats what I assumed but the letter isnt exactly clear about that. Do you have any insight to whether I'd need one from Canada having lived there for two years ending 8 years ago?

My wife is Canadian and I'm British. For the spouse visa, they have asked me for police certificates. In the letter it states I need one from: 1) The country where you currently live, if you have lived there for six months or more; and 2) The country where you have spent most of your adult life...

Hi I'm British and my wife Canadian. We found out my wife was pregnant with our first child before we submitted our spouse PR application where we ticked the box that she was pregnant but there weren't any follow-up questions. Would we need to fill out more paperwork for the baby which will...

My wife is Canadian and I'm British, we want to explore all options and apparently I could apply for a spousal PM visa from within Canada but do I need a specific visa in Canada to be eligible to start the spousal sponsorship application or can I just visit for 6 months, send in the sponsorship...

That's great thanks. I'll definitely add my own timelines once applied. And yes I'm the Brit and my wife is Canadian.

Thanks for the advice everyone. Would you recommend waiting a while to apply then I'm just going off what the processing times say on the website but would some countries get through quicker or something? We are in the UK. Some people's timelines are saying 2 or 3 months but others longer...

I tried searching for this question and got a few answers like job offer, school offer or rental agreement. However, due to long processing times of over a year and planning ahead what employer would give a job offer a year in advance? I won't be going to school because I'll be getting my PhD in...

Ok thats great thanks very much.

Yes we're using the new forms. What is CoPR? Do you mean I would have to enter a year from my medical? How quickly would they ask me to get one? It might be hard to say due to the newer system. Would getting my PR card be a case of entering to get it then could I leave and return? Im just making...
