    April 2014 Application

    Sjulien, In your case, I believe you are the one who contacted them (CIC) first with a query right ?? And then they responded to your query with a new passport copy request. But otherwise, most cases are like mine, if you are in Canada. CIC won't make it an issue, as long as the passport is...

    April 2014 Application

    Not necessarily...mine was only about 5 months valid, when I sent it to CIC and they stamped it with the visa until August, as my PP expires this August. I have sent it in mid-March and got it back end of March. If you are currently in Canada, you might get away with CIC, even if you have less...

    April 2014 Application

    Hi Val884, My company's address on the letter head was a residential address. But, I did not provide any explanation on that nor was questioned about that in my case, because my employer has provided the actual business location address at the last.... under his signature and name. I think it...

    Ha Ha....In fact, the CBSA officer was so cool and friendly.... he was joking on that too.... He said, "You are a permanent resident of Canada and April Fool's Day" Then he laughed and said, "Dont worry, It's for real"

    Waiting for Passport - Please add your case here

    Hi Cabalen, Do you think it will be okay later on, when determining the eligibility for Citizenship and so on, if the Initial entry or Last entry dates are wrong on the CoPR ?? Did you find out from the CBSA officer about this, as you have landed already ?? I am asking because, my Initial...

    April 2014 Application

    Hi friends, Passports sent to CIC on March 13, 2015 and received the CoPR's and passports back this morning. Planning to land sometime this week. I was doubtful if CIC would request for a new passport copy as I had only less than 5 months of validity, but they did not. Got the CoPR and visa...

    April 2014 Application

    I am sure CIC would send the COPR through Canada Post. So, you can contact your local canada post office, and redirect your mail to your new address. They charge you $50-$60 to redirect mails to your new address for upto 6 months. Or, there is another option with them called "Hold the mail" You...

    April 2014 Application

    Hi Cabalen, I was expecting that your return tracker might be activated today, as you sent your PP on March 04, 2015. But saw someone else's tracker activated who sent after you. (On the PP tracking sheet) Do you think the address which we sent to, (courier or the PO Box address), would make a...

    Usually, its good if the passport is valid for 1 year at least. Anything less than that, CIC might ask you for a new passport details.

    Passport renewal process times at BLS - Brampton

    Buddy, It will take 4-6 weeks. Dont get confused with the 15 days timeline. That is only if the current passport was previously issued in Toronto. For example, now as they will issue your new passport from Toronto, next time they will renew it in 15 days. Please read the instructions carefully...
