Our mycic account finally shows that medicals are passed. April 2017 submission. Its been exactly a full year. Now is the final stretch. Nothing to do but wait for that DM letter.

You'll most likely deliver the baby before medical request comes in.

our AOR (both sponsor and PA) was April 12/13 2017.

Just get a new photo if you are concerned. The cost and time of a rejected application far outweighs the minor inconvenience of getting a new photo.

You will need to apply via Outland Sponsorship for both your child and husband. There is no wait time before you can begin your application after your wedding or baby's birth. As a PR, you do not confer any citizenship status to your child. There are many guidelines on the CIC website. You...

So.... We finally got asked for a medical. April 2017 AOR. After we sent in SchA back in June 2017, we heard nothing. I guess they are either batching these requests or we are really close! Trying to stay positive.

We opened and got a certified copy done by a lawyer. Sent that physical certified copy into IRCC along with Sch A and also scanned and uploaded those documents to the CIC webform. Its been four months and they haven't asked for the originals. fingers crossed.

Just checking in. Absolutely no update since they sent a confirmation that our PCC and Schedule A was received. That was back in late May. Nearly 4 months without a peep out of IRCC which seems to be the norm. The first month drove us crazy. But since spouse has an OWP in-hand, we are...

I believe once they review your medical results, it is the long wait until SA, AIP and a final decision.

I've always thought that the eligibility and background checks happen simultaneously? Have you called IRCC for an update? edit: my mistake. I just looked at our file. It is showing that background check is in progress and haven't started eligibility review. Not sure what is the difference...

I think this is the intent of the change. The majority of applicants will not have red flags, and are not from 'difficult' countries as you put them. So while those folks requiring clarification or are from countries that require a little extra due diligence which will take a longer time, the...

If certificates were submitted without a translation from a CIC approved translator and a certified copy of the original, it will definitely be returned.

That's it. For OWP, it really is very simple. We submitted in March and it was three or four pages long but only two small sections were applicable to us. Looking at the forms it is dated April 2017. They have simplified it even more to be only two pages!

No. The sponsor doesn't need to submit a birth certificate. It will be all family members that are part of the PR application. ie: children or other dependents. I think that form is also used on other types of PR applications so it is worded in the most general sense possible.

We did both to be on the safe side. Since we never got the original request for documents, we uploaded by CSE webform and posted hardcopies by mail. We actually got certified copies done by a lawyer to send with the Sch A in the mail since we wanted to hold onto the originals in case something...

For my daughter, we were able to get her citizenship and passport turned around in 6 weeks. 1 month for citizenship application, 1 week for passport. If your son was born June 2016, then you definitely should have included him in your application. But if it was June 2017, I do not know...

So our myCIC account finally shows that our file has moved to the background check phase! The SchA and PCC have been uploaded and the background check is in process! It only took a month from us uploading the documents via CSE webform and mailing a set of originals via courier to get to this...

You can open joint bank accounts with her as you are a Canadian citizen. Same with utilities. Depending on your province, you may also be allowed to exchange an out of country license for a Canadian one. These will all show that you are living together.

Domestic travel is fine. You are able to board with photo ID such as a drivers license. I think the eTA blurb is standard boiler plate legalese that they will put on everything

It seems this has been discussed before many times. Please use the search tool. Also, no one here is going to be able to provide an absolute guaranteed answer on what IRCC will do. Just opinions based on interpretations and experiences...
