    Which is stupid tbh. Idk how long the card itself will take once the ecopr is issued.

    May 2024 - Inland Spousal Sponsorship

    Called them today morning, managed to get through to someone after waiting for 35 mins. They said they could not get into the application or mailbox and confirm the information requested was received, which is weird because when I had to call for my PR application years ago, they were able to...

    Got an email today that they did not receive our response to the P1 email and asked us to send the requested information! We double checked that the email address we replied to is correct and replied to that email twice this time, and CC'ed our own emails while replying. Is this the correct...

    What number did you call them on, is it the generic ircc Canada number?

    May 2024 - Inland Spousal Sponsorship

    We replied to that email within a few hours just to make sure there are no delays from our side. Yup, agree, it's true many people have to wait longer, just that it is worrisome the others who applied on the same day and have been on the same timelines for all other stages have received...

    May 2024 - Inland Spousal Sponsorship

    I'm probably panicking a bit but it's concerning how others from May 1 to 10 submissions have received their Decision Made and P2s whereas my spouse (also in the same date range) hasn't even received their BG completed! My spouse got what I believe is their P1 (the email where they ask for your...

    Indian travel after getting Canadian citizenship

    Thanks for the quick reply. Do you mind pointing me to the consulate link where it lists the documents required for e-visa? I've gone round in circles 3 or 4 times already trying to confirm and reconfirm what exactly is required to ensure I don't submit an incomplete application. Especially...

    Indian travel after getting Canadian citizenship

    Not sure if Canadian passport and e-visa (without a surrender certificate) is possible anymore, IMHO. I am having a HARD time keeping up with how quickly and how often the Indian consulate keeps changing/adding the rules and requirements to apply for Indian visas. All Indian visa applications...

    This is purely my personal take on this, so please take it with a grain of salt ... If the wife needed her mom/parents in Canada for help during the pregnancy and/or post-partum, then the super visa would have been a better route. Many people don't opt for it due to the money, medical tests...

    Many May people have received and submitted their medical request a while back, check the tracker. Unless there is something really different about your application which makes it more complex than routine cases, your ETAs should fall more or less in line with the average.

    Thanks buddy for the wishes (for my spouse who's the one waiting). Canada Post - they said they'll be back to normal around January, hoping it doesn't go beyond that. Based on how they plan to close their backlog, I'm guessing it will impact newer PR cards being mailed until the currently stuck...

    May 2024 - Inland Spousal Sponsorship

    Any idea what are the average time taken these days to move from P1 --> P2 --> eCoPR --> Card printed --> Card mailed, assuming we are quick to respond? Knowing the mailing time is uncertain currently due to CP strike causing a backlog of mails, I want to get a sense of how long the wait prior...

    Canadian Passport in person timeline

    I applied on 7th Nov in person and had asked for in person pickup. Picked up the passport today and they had given me today's date on the receipt as the pick up date. I had taken the standard processing .The tracker on their website still shows as processing. I also heard someone else before me...

    The one near 777 Bay is probably what you need. You can also look up on the Service Ontario website for locations which will serve your specific need - they do have an option online to check for this.

    Indian passport surrender

    Great to know, thanks for the quick reply! I will take a look at entry vs e-visa. The sites are a bit all over the place so sometimes it is tough to consolidate all the information in the head. I will mention though, for everyone's benefit here, that I heard in another forum that since Oct 31...

    Indian passport surrender

    Is there anyone here who has been able to travel to India recently (i.e. last 10-15 days) on their Canadian passport and surrendered the Indian passport in India to get surrender certificate (and possibly oci application too)? I ask this because of two factors: 1. Bls apparently has started...

    May 2024 - Inland Spousal Sponsorship

    Thank you, that makes a lot of sense. In our case, the eligibility was completed long before this Nov 1 ghost update, and we had the AIP and SA come through before that. So we know we're almost there... what I'm trying to do is gauge when the eCoPR will come. It's been quite the intense climb...
