As far as I know this is just an issue with them not specifying properly that open work permits accompanying inland PR applications are supposed to be mailed in. You must mail it with your PR application to be eligible to receive it

It typically expires when your medical exam expires (they are valid for 1 year), so if it took longer between your medical and your PPR/COPR then your Visa will expire sooner.

12 months total. Sorry, no one can give you a timeline, everyone's application is different. Try joining the thread for whichever month/application type yours is and checking the Google doc tracker (should be linked somewhere in the thread) to see if that gives you an idea how others...

When your husband landed, were you considered common-law? As in, had you previously lived together for 12 months (it counts if you had lived together for 12+ months at some point even if you were not living together when he left) prior to his immigrating to Canada? If so, it's possible there...

No you need to pay it before they can make the request. If you haven't paid it already they will send you an email/letter asking you to pay the fee and then submit the receipt via webform. Only after that will you receive a request for biometrics.

As long as you can legally enter the US, as in you have the proper visa if necessary, you can do biometrics there.

Theres no requirement that she had to do it before she came to Canada, it's just highly recommended because there's nowhere in Canada to give biometrics, and if you leave Canada there's never a guarantee that you'll be allowed to reenter when you're a visitor. She can do it in any country that...

@PeacefulMan asked about something similar recently, maybe they have some insight from their experience?

They rarely stamp your passport anymore, even at a land border, at least for a US citizen. He'll get the default 180 day stay as a visitor, unless the CBSA agent(s) you deal with decide otherwise. The implied status is done as soon as he leaves Canada and doesnt come back.

So I'm in the same boat as your husband, US citizen applying outland while in Canada. I did get my visitor record prior to having to go do biometrics though so that's where things differ. I just showed my visitor record with my passport, explained why I had left Canada, and pretty much got...

If you leave while she is on implied status, the implied status goes away. So reentry is just as normal

While every entry is assessed as a new entry, they will very likely look at a border run differently because, as Canuck previously stated, they don't like people living in Canada as visitors. The extension is the best way to go, it's a good sign to CBSA that you're doing things the correct way.

US Citizen being sponsored by my Canadian husband. Mailed app: May 16, 2019 Received by IRCC: June 03, 2019 AOR: July 24, 2019 Sponsor Approval: July 30, 2019 Medical Request: July 31, 2019 Moved to VO (Mississauga): August 07, 2019 Biometric Request: August 12, 2019 Medical Passed: August 15...

Not likely. They want to see that you are as committed as any traditionally married couple, hence why they want to see that you share financial burdens as well as physically live together. So while you can probably prove to their standards that you have physically been living together for 12...

Over a month here, but we also had a weird thing happen where they gave us a new application number "for administrative purposes," so even though they said it doesnt effect our overall processing time, I imagine it's at the bottom of the pile in Mississauga now.

In your case, if you were actively engaged in your studies the entire period I would declare it that way. But if there were periods where you were enrolled in your university but not actively working towards your degrees, I would consider breaking up that block of time. For your work/other...

The short answer is yes, I attached an extra page. But I actually did it as an "additional document" (listed as "optional" on the page where you attach all the files) as opposed to including it in the same document as the application itself. My additional document was my letter about my...

Yes, it'll say that until they send the medical request

As far as I understand it, it's possible your OWP could still be returned as they're two separate applications. Unlikely, especially if you paid all the correct fees (the most common reason I've seen for them getting returned), but it can't hurt to let the extension continue processing. But it...

The IRCC number should be on your biometric request letter
