Hi, good luck everyone. Just got passport request last night 11pm, visa office Ottawa, don't know who's working at 11 in Ottawa lol. Question about mailing passport. If I mail to the designated visa center, there's a visa transmission fee, and courier fee I suppose for returning the passport...

Depending on the case, I got that letter in November, still background check in process

I don't think the pre arrival letter matters much, some people never got it before DM. If your case office is Ottawa, it will be fast in every aspect even with complicated background check. It is what it is, at this point I'm just grateful I could submit the application because it looks like the...

Hi Christine, I just wish the background check is over before the medical expires....

Not necessarily if you have a complicated case for background check. We received pre arrival letter in November, but because my dad had military record, background check is still in process.

What was the complications in your case? Was it background check? Although my mom passed away and it's just my dad living by himself without any close relative, he has a comfortable life and many activities to keep him busy, so he is in no hurry to come, that's why he would be pissed to spend so...

what i'm worry about is that his medical will expire in one year and if there's no decision then, we have to redo the medical at one point which is very annoying and money consuming.....

Hi, I've been following this forum for a while and it's good to see the information everyone shared. I just want to share my timeline and see if any prediction for DM. Application received may 3, 2018 Sponsorship approved July 18, 2018 Medical and PCC/military record requested sept 8, 2018 Pre...

We received your application for permanent residence on February 7, 2011. We started processing your application on March 17, 2011. A decision has been made and you will be contacted. Medical results have been received. We sent you a letter on February 20, 2012 to xxx Ontario, Canada...

Hi, I was 5 months pregnant when i applied for the PR, my husband is canadian and he sponsored me. and my daughter was born just a year ago and i got my case approved for both stages this april. your case sounds very similar to mine, and you should be fine. just don't forget to update your...

just a final update of my application. i finally got my PR card in the mail today, after 2 months and a week of waiting. and my family and i are flying to Florida next monday for vacation, that's why i was stressed out by not having the PR card for a month. i got it just in time though. thanks...

i think comparing to the 380,000 people worldwide applying to immigrate as skilled workers before 2008, we are all pretty lucky here. they have been waiting for 4-5 years, but was dismissed just like that. all application returned and no explanation. Canada's immigration policy is going down...

i think the requirement for applying for in-land sponsorship cases is that you have to be inside the country, otherwise everyone else will be doing what you are doing, apply then leave the country. however, i've never read on the government website or the forum here what they will do if you...

wow you are really lucky, but if i were you, i would probably panic at that moment. what is wrong with CIC and CBSA....they don't catch and have no ability to catch the fake refugees, but get pissed at people who deserve to stay in canada and have potential to work and pay taxes. it makes me mad...

Hi, i'm wondering if anyone know anything about my situation. i landed in april, but i still haven't got my PR card yet, because it takes 44 business days, and i called CIC 3 times and they told me it would be scheduled to sent june 11. but my family booked our flight tickets to Florida for a...

I DM on Feb 20, and didn't get a letter till mid Mar for the landing on Apr 5. so at least a month and a half i think.

Hi, hatrang, i got the insurance through my program at George Brown college, as a visa student, i was required to purchase that and couldn't opt out. i paid about $900 for a year and it covered almost everything, including the flight tickets for family and body return to my country if i died :P...

first congratulations on your baby! i hope the joy overwhelms the pain of delivery and bills. i had my baby delivered before i got my PR. luckily i was in school and it was mandatory to buy health insurance ourselves for $900/year. and that covers all of my tests, doctor's visits, delivery and...

also when you go into the office to apply, bring your bank/credit card statement that's dated after your DM letter with your address on. i had to go in for the third time because of this and that and they just keep changing rules. bring everything you have with your address and name on that you...
