Thank you!

Hi Dreamer, I'm not sure of the exact duration of an FBI report's validity, but I do know that I had to do it twice. We sent the first report with our initial application. About a year later, when we were told to take our medical exams, the initial background check had expired, and we were...

Hi, It is my understanding that when landing, a Canadian address must be provided for the purpose of receiving permanent residence cards. Obviously this can be a problem if the new resident hasn't rented or purchased a place to live. Are P.O. boxes acceptable as a place of residence, or must a...

We've received our passport request! Submitted paperwork October, 2005. Placed in the processing queue 11/15/2005. File transferred to Seattle 12/1/2006. Request for second criminal check and more paperwork 1/2/2007 Sent second batch of info to Seattle 3/27/2007 Received request for passport...

Hello Shabab and Eduardo, Thanks for the helpful ideas. In response to Eduardo's question about why we sent our FBI reports prior to our interview: the initial batch of paperwork required with our application included an FBI report, so we did not want to omit it and therefore not follow...

Hello, I need advice. In January, we received a notice that an interview had been waived, and that we should proceed with our medicals. We were also asked to repeat our fingerprinting and get another FBI criminal check. We did this and sent it off immediately to the FBI, but we haven't...

So we followed instructions and did the fingerprint/background check thing when we sent in our initial application. Now, over a year later, they want us to do it all over again, because the check is over a year old. Does anyone know why in hell they ask you to send this in if they're only...

Hello, My timeline is as follows: Submitted paperwork October, 2005. Placed in the processing queue 11/15/2005. File transferred to Seattle 12/1/2006. Has anyone else had their file transferred to Seattle? If so, what kind of response times are you seeing? Has it been faster or slower than...

Has anyone considered Hamilton for a landing destination? I've heard mixed reviews. Some people say it's a great old city with lots of gritty character. Some people say it's awful. I'm hoping to check out Ontario this summer, but until then, does anyone have any opinions they'd be willing...

Hello, My wife and I applied five months ago, and our application is in process. I have decided to resign from my job. I know I'm supposed to report marital or address changes, but should I report my change in employment status, or would that just confuse things? Thanks for any advice.
