Alright, I'm going to do this then, and if they need me to break it down further, then they can request a travel history lol. Thanks!

Congrats! Can you update your entry in the 2017 google doc next time you get a chance? Thanks!

I just need some clarification. I've been trying to google and search the forums but the answers have been all over the place and I don't think I found anything recent. My questions: 1) Under question #6 "Personal history," do I need to include the dates that I was on vacation from school...

kcward is correct. If they require additional relationship proof, they will ask you to submit more. That's when you can give them all the old or new proof that you didn't include in the application originally.

Alright guys, so an update. IRCC received my application on Dec 7th 2017. Since then it has been 57 business days since my application was received and still no AOR. Most of my peers who I had contact with that were around the same date had already received AOR and Dec teens were starting to...

I sent my application Dec 6th, it was delivered the next day. Still waiting on AOR, but others around my date (up to Dec 9th-ish, some past that but those are outliers) have begun receiving AOR for a few days now. I'm currently at the 56-57 business day mark, and its very rare that others are...

1) Its normal to not hear anything for several months. During this time they are doing thorough background checks and verifying them, as well as reviewing the supporting documents you sent in. If they need anymore documents from you, they will contact you to request them, so all there is to do...

Congrats! But what is the day they received your application?

Correct. Keep in mind he will also need to pay international student tuition and fees should he be accepted. Good luck!

Yeah, Outland seems to have hit a snag. Its almost like nobody is working on the applications... This is so weird.

He will be able to work only AFTER he receives the work permit in the mail, which can take around 4-5 months to receive. As for schooling, no, he must apply for a study visa if he wants to study at a university before receiving his PR.

3 people have received AOR, but I'm thinking they were the lucky ones who managed to get the officers that fill in info quick. Someone called today and said they were working on Dec 4th application today, and that seems right based on the timelines that the end Nov applicants have been getting...

Oh sorry, it wasn't in your original post so I got confused. Yes, put the city where you are living currently. As for the work permit, I applied outland, but it seems that the average wait time for the OWP is roughly 4-5 months, as long as your application is complete and isn't sent back.

For what? Question #1?

1) This is the first time you visited Canada. In your case, it would be the time when you were studying in the U.S. and crossed over. Did you fly into Canada, or did you cross a land border during this visit? If you arrived by Air, list the airport that you arrived at. If you arrived by land...

If he is still in the U.S. when you order a background check, it has an expiry date of 6 months after the date it was processed (it tells you the date on the certificate you get from the FBI), so if you guys don't have plans to return to the U.S. after submitting the application, I would wait...

Yes, its best to just say that he is visiting for several months after just having completed his Masters in the U.S. You can purchase a refundable plane ticket to show the immigration officer if you'd like, and then refund the ticket after entering Canada. Its not completely necessary since he...

You need to submit a background check from any Country that you've lived in for 6 months or more. Doesn't matter if he intends to leave or not. He will need to get a police check from China, the U.S. and if he has lived anywhere else in the world he has lived for 6+ months.

Great news!! Take this chance to make sure to give everything another once over, also make a copy of EVERYTHING! A simple scan into your computer is sufficient, just so you have a reference for everything you've submitted and can refer to it if need be. I personally printed out doubles of...

If you have names, atleast put those, and then put unknown in all other fields. I put unknown for everything except my fathers birthdate and name and attached an explanation letter stating I have no contact with him and was not able to get the info. It will be fine if you do something like this.
