    Here are some of my interpretations of those rules. We submitted in March 2017 and so far, there has been no negative pushback from IRCC regarding our application. We submitted joint bank account statement and copies of drivers licenses since all the rental agreements were under my name. I...

    We just got this too. And today the message came. It was a request for Replacement documents of Schedule A and PCC, to which the IRCC confirmed by a response to our CSE that it was received.... o_O I guess we're calling in the morning to confirm whether or not we should upload everything again.

    We haven't had any issues regards to validating the Schedule A but our experience with the technical issues webform was that it takes 15-20 days for a response.

    Did you apply for an Open Work Permit along with your application? If so, you should have received a decision on that by now. You will be forfeiting your In-Canada PR application by returning to work. Leaving for 2-3 weeks on vacation is fine, but if a border agent determines that you went...

    Sealed Police Certificate from Japan?

    It was 25 or 30 Canadian dollars. But they require fingerprints to which we needed to go to a recommended fingerprint agency which cost 120 Canadian dollars!

    Lurking around the 2016 thread, it seems for some inland, an SA result seems to bypass the AIP step and goes straight to a DM. They would most likely ask you for clarification if there is anything needed. Congratulations!

    One Way Ticket

    A one way ticket is not a condition for boarding. They cannot legally prevent you from boarding a flight on a one way ticket. Many people do this. Backpackers, those on a multi-segment journey utilising multiple carriers, students not requiring visas, etc. What they will check and require...

    Sealed Police Certificate from Japan?

    We went to the Japanese consulate in Toronto, applied and paid our fee in person. It took two months to get it processed. As we live in the same city as the consulate, we just went back to the consulate and picked it up. You could probably phone them and ask if you can submit all the...

    One Way Ticket

    I am not so certain about what some of the other members are saying. Since the IRCC allows dual intent for the purposes of entering the country. You must demonstrate that your spouse has significant ties back to their home country and also show that the intent to submit a PR application is...

    the IRCC prefers that applications are linked. But it is not necessary. However, they will communicate with by email or by physical mail through the mailing address reported on the application.

    So we are part of the batch of applicants that did not receive any correspondence through myCIC to upload our Sch A and PCC's. After calling IRCC in late April, we got confirmation that the correspondence was indeed a request for documentation and that we should upload our documents via the CSE...

    We put ours in the same envelope, the PR application gathered together with one large paper clip and the OWP with another large paper clip. So just two distinct stacks of paper within the same envelope. OWP was approved within 3 weeks of AOR. Physical OWP received a week after approval was...

    There has probably been more people not receiving any correspondence than those that received it without issue. I wonder if we should start tabulating in the spreadsheet those with the issue and those without and send that out to the CIC.

    The CIC has made it pretty clear and easy to find what exact country specific requirements are needed. You should review the application guidelines on the CIC website.

    There seems to be a drastic slowdown on how quickly AOR's have been sent out. Same with OWP's. I wonder if it had anything to do with the Parental and Grandparent's Visa lottery that was finished first week of May. So far it has been 2 weeks since we sent everything for PCC and Sch A. Not a...

    Sealed Police Certificate from Japan?

    We asked the Japanese Consulate General in Toronto what to do, and an agent saidit is ok to open the folder and scan for the CIC. There is no mention of any valid / invalid condition of the letter once it is opened. There is a fairly official looking seal on the certificate, and it is stamped...
