Thank you so much :) And congrats on your COPR! I was wondering something, recent changes and opportunities have made us decide to move to Calgary in stead of Toronto. So we will be landing in Toronto and visit our friends for a few days, then jet off to Calgary. My COPR says that I plan to stay...

Hi, we are not really selfie people so we did not have any. That being said, I dont think it matters. But about half of our photos were with friends and family, to show that others support our relationship as well.

Thanks! Yes I would also love to end up in BC or Alberta for the scenery, all depends on where the jobs are as you have mentioned. Regarding your COPR, it will be valid for exactly 12 months since the date your medicals were passed. For example, I passed my medicals in March, so my visa expires...

That is so good for you guys, even with my PR I am struggling a lot to find employment. It is all about who you know these days. Please feel free to ask me any questions regarding the sponsorship application. We are landing in Toronto, but we are not sure where we are going to settle. I was...

From another post: "The only people eligible to be sponsored by your husband, and so to be listed on IMM0008, are you and any of your "dependent" children who are not already Canadian citizens or permanent residents. Only those people included on IMM0008 are required to undergo medical and...

Hi! Glad I could help :) Are both of you in South Africa? Okay so regarding medicals - you will get a medical request after your application has been transferred to the visa office in Pretoria, if you are also applying family class. So you can wait for that. Only your dependents (i.e...

Thanks, the interview I am speaking of is the landing interview. I saw a few posts regarding landing interviews, but I assume those are only for applicants who are already in Canada.

Just thought I'd pitch in my experience. For those of you who have not seen my thread, I gave detailed info of what I initially sent with my application. We sent 100 pages of proof of sponsor's intent to return to Canada. This included anything from shipping quotes, to job applications (even if...

Hi all, hope you are well. I just wanted to ask, is there anything that we need to receive after CoPR? We are outland so I assume no other interviews or anything left for us while in South Africa? Got my passport and CoPR back last week, paid my ticket with Emirates yesterday and flying 15th of...

Hi, if you are in Canada now, just send all the proof of what you have. The officer is correct, the onus is on you BUT if you are back in Canada and you can explain that you had to leave for a valid reason, then it would be fine. It is very important for them that persons who apply to sponsor...

Glad I could help! If you have any questions feel free to ask :)

Hi. I put in the from, pronted it out and wrote PRESENT in the “to” part.

Hi, I might be wrong but I think you can do it like that yes. As long as you remain in Canada, since you are only PR and not a citizen yet. VIP members might have a better answer for you, so don't just go on what I say, but I think you can sponsor her from inside yes. Not sure whether the...

Very strange. I would definitely raise a CSE or phone the call center. You can also request notes. Have you checked the June outland thread, anyone else there who has not received sponsor approval yet?

Hi all. UPDATE: I received my COPR today with my passport (PPR was last week Thursday, so it took exactly one week). Timeline: App sent: 11 Sep '18 AOR: 17 Dec '18 SA: 10 Jan '19 AOR2: 21 Jan '19 Medical Request: 27 Feb '19 Medicals Passed: 05 March '19 PPR and DM: 28 March '19 COPR: 04 April...

Hi. It is a year from medical passed yes. At least in my case (and most other cases) it is.

Hi all! Just another update: COPR and passport has been received and I have it in hand :D I cannot describe the feeling of opening the package and seeing the COPR and counterfoil in my passport. I will keep updating this thread with other things that we are going through for the following 2...

Hi all, just an update: Logged into GCKey this morning: "We're done processing your application." Application status is approved and the details regarding my counterfoil visa is also at the bottom of the page on my GCKey. I assume this means my passport is done, now I just need to wait for them...

Hi, timeline is as follows: App received: 11 September 2018 AOR: 17 December 2018 (longest three months of my life) SA: 10 January 2019 AOR 2: 21 January 2019 Med request and additional proof request: 27 February 2019 (asked additional proof that sponsor will move to Canada) Medical passed: 05...

You can expect passport request roughly at the end of April if all goes well. They take about one month between medicals passed and PPR. I will update here once I receive my passport back, as far as I understand that is the last step. Then I just need to land in June and sign the COPR.
