I think it is a choice you have to make, wait for the COC before doing your application, meaning your application is submitted later or wait for the letter, meaning your PR process might get delayed. However, if you do submit your application without the PCC and with the LOE, I still recommend...

@DinahDoss did you get a resolution for this ?

Did you also have to do a eTA or was the CoPR sufficient ? I assuming you entered by air.

So when you submitted you COC application did you get a summary page or email?. All I got was the payment invoice. I am assuming the application number is the E number in the invoice. Is that correct ? Also for fingerprint request did you get a email or did you have to keep checking status...

If you brother is in Singapore he could go to the police station where they process the COC to see if they have a way for you to apply. Else you will have to try calling the police folks who process it and talk to them about it. Meanwhile you should start documenting all the effort you are...

They did similar silliness for me. My wife and me need a letter to get Singapore police cert. They sent a letter with my wife and my 5 year old son's! name in it. Since I am not in Canada, all I can do is raise a CSE and wait for them to correct it. It has been over a week and I am still...

Do you have your old passport ? FIN would be a stamp in it.

If you are a permanent resident you can use a channeller. They would do everything for you including getting fingerprints. The one I used also got the results back on the same day. I got to the channeller from the FBI site, do not remember the details. If you are not US PR then look at some...

The scale of economy plays a big factor too. US economy and population are much larger then Canada leading to significantly more (diverse) opportunities.

Not sure if we will see a statistical difference. Mostly because Canada is already a very popular destination and being a US citizen does not give any kind of CRS boost. So a bunch of US folks may want to move but CRS requirement and the sheer paper work and process involved would dissuade a...

Again. Important to differentiate between rentry and first time landing. For first time what you described is exactly what you should do. I think you might still need to apply for a eTA which is OK to do because you are not a PR till you land for the first time. For reentry, you would be in...

Is you query regarding first time landing or rentry. The discussion we are having is for reentry after you have done your first entry. You get your PR card 4 to 8 weeks or longer after your first landing. You can simply drive in for first landing or rentry. Though for first landing you should...

If you are already a Canadian PR I do not know the correct answer to that. It is all undefined legality to me.

I think using a eTA when a PR would be (potentially) illegal. So careful with something like that.

The problem is getting on a plane. My understanding is you will not be allowed to board a plane if you do not have either a PR card or a eTA. As I understand it if you manage to board the plane you will not be denied entry into canada (because you are a Canadian PR). If you do manage to board a...

This explanation I gave above -> Technically you do not need it for air journeys too if you are from a visa exempt country (like the US), however since visa exempt countries now need preapproval to fly and PRs cannot get pre approvals (since they don't need it), it leads to a situation where you...

You don't need the PR card for land journeys. Technically you do not need it for air journeys too if you are from a visa exempt country (like the US), however since visa exempt countries now need preapproval to fly and PRs cannot get pre approvals (since they don't need it), it leads to a...

I was hoping for August/September so that my kid would have minimal school disruptions. However IRCC opaqueness and Singapore PCC process means no real target.

Hard to say without GSCMS notes. I dropped a email inquiring about my Visa office and got a reply that my application is still in CPC Ottawa, so it is not at local visa office. Of course. My application is different since I still need to submit Singapore PCC
