They said it could be 18 weeks just to receive the AOR?! Was that Sydney?

For whatever it’s worth, if you fill it out online if you receive an answer in five days. All you have to do is Mail in a fingerprint card.

Thanks for your reply. With this amount of information did you get approval?

As this isn’t my area of expertise, I am uncertain and that’s why I posted here. I don’t know what appears as red flags and don’t have a broad enough understanding of the topic and what depth it is expected to go into.

I've already submitted our application but am wondering (after reading that someone included 50 pages of proof of intent to move) that we wildly under submitted documentation. For proof of intent to move we included letters from a few family members who live in the city we plan to move to and...

Is it correct that you received AOR in three weeks for outland in Sydney office?

Sorry, one more question. I’m seeing that you can’t have a permit with an Outland app. Is that accurate? Or is it just an OPEN work permit that you can’t have with Outland?

If that’s the case that would be amazing. So would we just need to contact CIC to change our address? Are Outland applications always able to filed while living in Canada?

My husband, son and I live in the US. We are planing to move to Toronto once our PR application goes through. However, my husband (an American) was offered a job in Toronto that would begin well before we receive our COPR (our application was only mailed a couple weeks ago). The employer is...

Ours was sent via regular mail (USPS) on Wednesday and was delivered today (!!!). It was $25 and had tracking. We sent to PO Box address.

USPS is mail. UPS is courier.

Thank you for explaining the difference as I was uncertain. I had thought about what I was asking and remained uncertain which was why I asked here. What I am trying to better understand is what is involved in the background check. What exactly is looked into? (ie past employers called? Family...

I’ve been seeing a lot of comments about when applications reach the background check phase. I was under the impression that the FBI History (PCC) that we submitted WAS the background check. Are they two different things? If so, what’s the background check?

Congrats on getting yours! Sorry it took so long. Can I ask what the circumstances of your app were? Married, kids, where applying from, etc? If you’d rather not share I understand. It seems considerably longer than what I’d heard so far (and certainly longer than we’re hoping ours will take)...

I was wondering what the average time is for an Outland PR sponsorship. I am a Canadian citizen living in the US with my American husband and son who I am sponsoring. We are all eager to move to Canada and are trying to strategize roughly when that might happen. Assuming our package doesn’t get...

We are applying from the US Outland. What is the background check? If we’ve already submitted the FBI/Police history and summary with our application will there also be an additional background check. If so, what is involved in that?

Hey! Just wondering where you’re getting your info? Want to make sure I’ve got what’s most current. Article I found online said that they are resuming working as of this morning and on the Canada Post Service Alerts site there’s no mention of delays due to strike...

Now I'm really kicking myself about not sending it via courier. I mailed ours yesterday via USPS and this strike has me very concerned. Do you have any sense of it is expected to be prolonged? Do you think it would be a good idea to resend via courier and try to contact CIC to cancel the one...

Yeah— it said bc it was international it was 3-5 business days. Retrospectively I probably should have done UPS or FedEx. Nothing I can do now except just hope it gets there. Ugh
