For anyone who finds this thread later, my 2016 Camry didn't need any changes, either for the federal inspection or the BC inspection. Canadian Tire charged quite a bit for it and took most of an afternoon, but that's the price of doing business.

Does Canadian Tire make the needed changes as well? When I check online, RIV doesn't have my stamped import form yet that the border took, so I emailed them a scan of the ones I got to keep. How long did it take to get your inspection letter after crossing the border?

Yes, on the next business day Toyota emailed me a clearance letter. I also printed the page from the NHTSA and submitted both with my import Form 1 to RIV. I finally did the import yesterday and didn't have any problems.

Thanks, I've submitted a request, so I'll see what comes from it.

Hi everyone, I'm an American citizen and recently got my Canadian PR. I'm looking to import my personal vehicle from the US, and I see one of the steps is getting a recall clearance letter from the manufacturer. My car is a Toyota manufactured in the US, so as far as I can tell, I'm supposed to...

Do you see your application in the status tracker at https://ircc-tracker-suivi.apps.cic.gc.ca/? And I guess I could've misunderstood earlier. Did you do the Biometrics and Medical appointments before being asked to, or did they send you letters asking you to do those?

Requests for biometrics and medical appointment come after the AOR, from everything I've heard. But my AOR didn't come to me, it only went to my sponsor. Have you checked if your spouse got it? It's an email that says something like "This confirms that your application to Sponsor a Member of the...

Where are you uploading the form? When I uploaded mine, there were separate places in the application portal to upload all of those items, including an additional spot for uploading anything that didn't have it's own spot.

Same here. It's been about three weeks for me with no change. My PR confirmation email was from Montreal, and apparently which office you get makes a big difference in the timeline? But I don't know much about that.

Is it the PR portal confirmation email? I replied directly to that email, and I think that's what you're supposed to do. (Although I should note that I haven't actually received a response.)

Argh, now that I checked, most of my correspondence from them was the Mississauga office but the PR portal confirmation email is Montreal. I hope for both our sakes that you're wrong about Montreal being the slowest, but I'm still waiting for any reply since sending them my info in early...

Thanks to the spreadsheet linked in another thread on this site, I was finally able to link my application to my GCKey account. Turns out when they ask how many people are in the application, they're including the sponsor, not just the applicant(s).

Thank you!! This is so great to see all the steps laid out like this. And thanks to the instructions, I was finally able to link my GCKey account.

Are you able to visit the US and return to Canada? I'm living in BC but got my FBI check done in Washington with turnaround less than 24 hours back in June.

Stealing the format from penacare to add my own dates, some of them very similar. Got some questions about linking to GCKey, the COPR document number, the Approved in Principle letter and the finalization portal if anyone knows the answers. -Applied: June 28, 2023 -Sponsor Received AOR: August...

They asked for original and I gave them original, when I entered as a visitor for a day or so in 1987. Most recent entry was a different line.
