    IEC to PR: Implied status before AOR?

    @scylla , thank you for your response! She's not working and won't need to work until her OWP, but I guess that doesn't make any difference with regards to her legal status. Applying for a visitor visa seems risky as she evidently plans to stay long term, and has ties in Canada (me). Her...

    IEC to PR: Implied status before AOR?

    Hello, My partner applied for PR but she hasn't received her AOR yet. It's been 2 months now and her IEC work permit is about to expire. Does she automatically get implied/maintained status despite not having received her AOR? Even if she does eventually get her AOR, would she get implied...

    co-op student visa and IEC at the same time

    Hi, I'm taking the liberty of asking this again, since I got conflicting information from other threads and I still can't manage to reach IRCC. I know it's possible to hold a study permit and a working holiday visa at the same time, but I have doubts about the work permit "leg" of the co-op...

    PR Card (New/Renewal) Processing Timeline 2021

    They said the picture didn't meet the requirements. My picture was taken by a professional photographer who's done photographs for PR cards before, and I checked the dimensions, so I highly doubt it, but whatever. At this point I don't expect anything from IRCC to make sense anymore.

    PR Card (New/Renewal) Processing Timeline 2021

    Same situation. I called IRCC today. They are now processing photograph submissions from April 4th. So, unless they quickly catch up, there is at least a 4.5 month delay for people who had to send pictures again.

    PR Card Renewal & New - 2022 Processing Timeline

    I landed in April but I had to submit new photographs in May. I called IRCC today to check my application status. Apparently they are now processing photograph submissions from April 4th. I don't expect to receive my PR card in 2022.

    How to update online address for PR card?

    Applying for MSP in Vancouver, can I get a BC Services Card too?

    The officer at the airport asked me if my address was an Airbnb. I said yes and he said that I cannot apply yet and handed me over an application form to fill out after moving to a permanent address.

    Applying for MSP in Vancouver, can I get a BC Services Card too?

    Sorry for hijacking your thread but I have a similar question. I'm a new PR. I booked an appointment with ICBC to complete MSP enrolment, as per their instructions. When I came to ICBC for my appointment, they told me I needed to wait until my application was processed (21 days) before visiting...

    The FSW-Outland PPR rain thread: trends and speculation

    I too hope that Ottawa goes faster, and when it does, I will happily update my estimate. In the meantime, all I can do is extrapolate this week's PPR rate and it is clear that it is not raining PPRs yet.

    The FSW-Outland PPR rain thread: trends and speculation

    myimmitracker.com samples candidates irrespective of their PPR status, so it's a better way of measuring precipitation than Facebook and the like. Here are the new PPRs issued this week and reported on myimmitracker: AOR Feb 16, 2020 AOR May 13, 2020 AOR Sep 19, 2020 AOR Oct 17, 2020 AOR Oct...

    FSW WORLDWIDE

    Any outlanders here ordered their GCMS notes recently? How long did it take? Are we still in the COVID pace group? I'm considering ordering them again, but I don't want to wait 4 months again.

    Sorry for the late reply. She's a healthcare professional. Not the kind in high demand in Canada though. Thanks for the advice! Anybody wants to chime in with their experience in BC?

    No, I didn't. I thought the doctor would take care of it. I'm going to do it now.

    best place to stay for job seekers?

    I speak French natively but my significant other doesn't, and I don't think she can legally work in Quebec without passing some difficult exams to get a Quebec licence. But I will definitely apply for Quebec-based companies that also have offices outside of Quebec or are okay with 90% - 100%...
