will do... I'm checking my emails and myCIC all the time... should've started a new job this monday. Grrrrr this prolongued processing times really mess everything up. What happened to work permit processing times of less than 30 days. I surely remember those. If they would've cleared up their...

I applied May 7th, anxiously waiting for approval... when did you apply ARSR?

Congrats PP62!!! This gives me hope to receive COPR soonish ::)

I got three lines too: 1. We received your application for permanent residence on June 17, 2014. 2. We started processing your application on August 2, 2014. 3. Medical results have been received. Timeline: Submitted 17th of June AOR 2. august 2014 Medicals received 5th of February 2015...

Why should your PR status in Canada should have anything to do with travelling in the United States? The PR card is for Canada and proves your permanent resident status in Canada. Why should it do anything for the US?

Current processing times for BOWPs are ~4 months, so you won't get it in time when you come back from your travels. You can find more information here: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/resources/tools/temp/visa/validity/implied.asp

Just copy her work permit/visitor visa etc, whatever she has! Or is she here as a tourist? Well if not, you should provide a copy of the permit she has… maybe add when she has entered Canada as well?

I would change the address online. However you can also go to Canada Post and have them redirect all your mail from your old address to your new address. This way you can make sure that you will receive your PR card no matter where CIC is mailing it to!

I paid the same, sounds right to me. Super annoying, if our PR would've gone accordingly to timelines and wouldn't be slowed down by EXPRESS (haha) entry, then we wouldn't have to support the canadian immigration department with another few $$...

You definitely had to apply for BOWP, otherwise you would be out of status if you don't get PPR/COPR by the end of june. I'm not sure if you can get a refund for the BOWP application. Maybe if they haven't started working on your BOWP application by the time PR is approved?

I am in the exact same situation as you. My current WP also runs out June 30th, I am June 2014 applicant for PR, had medical in february and have applied for BOWP in beginning of may. And I have also secured a very good new job for beginning of august. Honestly I think there's no way to get the...

Hi folks, I am waiting for my BOWP to be approved, my current WP expires june 30th. My current employer has laid me off beginning of august. If I don't get my new open WP then and I'm not with my new employer yet (will hopefully start a new job by the end of august), will I still be covered...

Same same here guys. Got medical request on the 5th of february, done on the 10th of february and since then nothing. I might loose a job offer because neither my BOWP nor PR application get completed in time. So fed up with this process…………………………………………………………………….

I have some questions about the BOWP too. On my online application it also asks me for a medical test (absolutely not sure why…) and for a 'schedule 1'. Anyone knows what's up with this things?

Hi all, I'm also in the limbo of waiting for my RPRF and my status expires in 2 months, thus I need to get an BOWP. I am asked to upload schedule 1 and Form IMM5710 (application to extend my stay….). In section 3. "I am applying for the following:" Do I go for work permit with same...

Thanks astasi!

Hey guys, sorry I know this has been on here a million times but could anyone guide me how to pay upfront RPRF? I can't find the old thread anymore... Thanks and Good Luck to all.

You made a common mistake that you took the NOC code that matches your title, but not the NOC code that matches your duties! The majority of Postdocs in Canada do Research for 90% of their time (experiments, analysis, research etc in whatever field..) but only a very little fraction do more than...

You will still need to get some kind of work permit for this.Are you looking for internships at companies or university internship? Certain universities offer help to obtain study/exchange work permits. But for this you still need to be accepted by a university lab for which you have to contact...

Did you get a T4 or T4A for this? Did you have benefits?
