CIC call center agents tends to say that "your application may be lost..." but please do not get alarmed by this as it appears to be a common response by them when your application is not in the system yet. Do not worry, sit tight for patiently 3 months and if you still don't receive your AOR...

I have just received my AOR by email! :) I was quite surprised that the AOR email came at 10pm, could this mean that CIC is working extended hours? My ecas is not updated yet, but I believe it can take a few days. My application was received by CIC on Oct 31st, therefore November applicants...

Thank you for sharing this information! The wait continues....

I do not think there should be any reason to worry what so ever. Some people receive AOR sooner than others, and it is not necessary it will be within the 2 month time frame. We just have to be patient and go about our daily lives, whatever has to happen will happen, nothing we can do at this...

I don't think that should be a problem. I travelled to Australia for vacation in 2013, I had a transit in Los Angeles on my way to Australia and also on my way back to Canada. All I mentioned was my exit date from Canada and my re-entry date into Canada, my Destination (Australia) and reason...

If your current family size is 3 persons (you, dad, mom), then you must meet financial requirement of last 3 taxation years for 3 persons. This is regardless of the fact that your parents may be living in a different country and not with you. I had called CIC to verify this information.

Thank you for the response, you are correct. I called CIC this morning to confirm. They said that I have to meet LICO+30% for 4 people for the years 2011, 2012, 2013, regardless of the fact that my family size was 3 persons for those years. It seems I will now have to apply in 2017 because that...

No courier will be open on Jan 1st as far as I am concerned. Your best bet is to courier your application out on Dec 31st I would imagine.

I have read all the posts in the discussion, but I believe the question I have has not be posed by anyone so far. I wish to sponsor my mother and father. My question is in regards to the minimum income requirement for sponsorship: For the years 2011, 2012 and 2013, my marital status was single...

I also had sent mine with Canada Post courier for the 2 business day delivery, I dropped it off at Canada Post on a Monday night, and it got delivered on Friday, so that's about 3-4 business days depending on how you look at it.

I just wrote N/A on each and every field that did not apply to me and I had to leave blank, might be overkill, but better be safe than sorry! I submitted copies of all my pay stubs from last 4-5 years as my record of employment, that may sound like a lot of papers, but it was not because I...

I came to Canada in 2003 as an international student from United Arab Emirates where I was born and lived. I am however a Bangladeshi passport holder.

Hello Fellas, After some 2 years of inactivity on this website after landing as a PR, I have returned now that it is time for citizenship. I sent out my Citizenship application last week and it was received by CIC in Sydney, NS on Oct 31, 2014. I think I will count myself as Nov 2014 applicant...

Hi Guys, I received my PR card today finally! Landed on Aug 4 at Niagara. I live in Toronto.

HI Guys, I landed August 4th and still waiting for the damn PR Card. I need to fly to US soon for work and really need my PR Card ASAP. I called CIC call center today to check the status of my PR card. They told me that I should have received my PR card by now if I landed in August 4. Then...

I think you should be fine. Just attach a letter explaining your masters is an online program from an American university. You can also mention that you checked with CIC and they said a study permit is not necessary.

I dont understand why some companies do not want to give letters for immigration purposes. Is the company doing something illegal and they want to avoid contact from CIC? Anyways, all your employer needs to give you is a letter confirming your employment details. The letter does not need to...

Thanks for the info! I just recently got a US B1/B2 visa and may have to travel soon by personal car for business. So I guess I can re-enter Canada with just my passport and Confirmtion of PR .

Hi All, I landed as a PR on August 4, 2012 and still waiting for my PR Card which currently takes about 2 months from landing. I know if you travel abroad while waiting for a PR card you need a travel document or PR card to come back to Canada. However, my question is if you travel to the...

Nope, you got to wait till CIC requestes you to do the medicals. They will send you some forms which you will need to take to the dotor with you.
