Also, just saw this on the Government Canada website. Does this mean that if her arrival test comes back negative she can bypass the hotel stay? Naturally the costs of the hotel are left to us and it's our responsibility to see whether a refund is available or we just have to suck it up and know...

Hi there, my wife in China has recently been approved for permanent residency and is preparing to book her flights to Toronto soon. So we know that as of now she will still have to go through the hotel quarantine process, but before that, we have a couple other questions. Like: she needs to...

I'm from Ontario, and that's where we'll be living

Hi everyone, my wife's PR application was recently approved and she will be coming to Canada in the summer. We are pretty excited and trying to hammer out all the details before she comes. One of the most important things on our mind, especially in this strange new covid world, is what kind of...

So my local MP constituent representative has been helping us out along the way (truly believe he helped us get from app submitted to CoPR in exactly 9 months to the day, while others s don't seem to have moved nearly as quickly). Anyways, this person called me today to check in and see if...

thanks for the replies!

so when my wife travels to Canada, naturally she has to show evidence of her relation to me, a Canadian citizen (or PR etc.). So of she will bring our Chinese marriage booklet and docs. Will she need to have them translated or is it fine to just show that when she's at immigration?

Now i'm looking on the website Find out if you can enter Canada - Travel restrictions in Canada – Canada.ca and I indicated that I am: a foreign national not showing signs and symptoms consistent with COVID-19 not coming from the United States an approved permanent resident not yet in Canada...

Of course. The 14 day will be no problem. The hotel quarantine looks like it will cost in the range of $2,000 from what I've read so far. Anyone recently gone through this and can confirm?

That's terrific! So another dumb question... According to Canada, is my wife in China a foreign national??

Hi everyone, my wife in China just got approved for PR and received CoPR, PRV & passport back yesterday (yay!). We were under the impression she can book a ticket immediately to Toronto, but it looks like she can't due to the latest travel restrictions? I thought an exemption would be applicable...

Hey everyone. Seems like progress is really being made for a lot of us after waiting for so long, and I'm sure good news is still on the way for everyone. My question today is how long does it usually take to get a passport back after PPR? My wife sent hers in April 7, we got a GCKey update...

Hey guys and gals. So my wife got her PPR about 2 weeks ago and submitted passport shortly after. ECAS or GCKey hasn't showed any acknowledgment saying they got it yet. Will they? The last thing on GCKey that is dated was additional documents on March 23rd, despite getting PPR email April 1st...

Hi everyone. So my wife in China got her passport request (PPR) late last week and is planning to travel to the nearby city (2 hour train ride) to submit passport along with the "package". It sounds like she has to go there in person, am I wrong about that? or is she able to simply mail it...

I received DM & pre-arrival last week from Hong Kong visa office. you'll get yours soon!

Hey everyone, looking like a lot of people are finally seeing more movement with their applications. And for those who aren't, you will! I got my fingers crossed for you. I received another email for my app from Hong Kong VO this morning, just trying to determine what it is exactly, as they are...

Ok great, thanks for the tip! I'm on the website now ready to upload. However it says I can only upload a file that is 2MB or smaller, and all docs must total 3.5MB or smaller. Guess they are behind on the times. All the stuff I have to send is roughly 12MB in total... maybe it's best to send...

Hi everyone. July 2020 outland applicant here. I'd like to think my wife and I are pretty far in the process. VO in Hong Kong has recently requested from me (the sponsor) more proof of my period of stay in China. I've gathered lots of documentation and was all set to upload it on GCKEY but am...

Thanks for the useful answers everyone. Indeed I am a citizen, 3rd generation born and raised. I returned to Canada in August 2019 so not too recent. What are GCMS notes and how do I order them? somewhere on the GCKey page I presume? The deadline they gave me to submit additional info was...

Hey guys, IRCC requested some more documents for myself (the sponsor) to show proof of my time spent in China. I was there for 7 years and have gathered what evidence I can. I think it will be enough but still paranoid. I'm writing a cover letter as some have suggested, explaining the documents...
