Hi everyone, looking for some quick info please. I applied for OCI in Paris, France on Jan 15th. I need to travel to US by end of Feb, and I feel like I might not have it before that. I also opted for courier services, so hopefully they will send out to my address as soon as it is ready...

Ah ok. Sounds good traveling on Indian passport after grace period is not problematic afterall since people apply for visa and OCI from frro routinely. I think I will do the same thing if frro is working else just come back on Indian passport only. Thanks a lot, it was very helpful!

No need to worry at all. I think I had just 1 question from history, in which date was given and I had to figure what war happened in that year, making it easier than to remembering the date itself. Most of the questions were based on common sense and did not require to read the book at all...

Any response on this? Is telling them about leaving the country for studies a good idea? I am just trying to avoid flying across atlantic just to attend this oath ceremony in the middle of my studies.

Hi Everyone, Can somebody please tell me if I am supposed to send a copy of my renewed passport to IRCC? I renewed my passport after I sent my application package. Currently no details of my new passport are mentioned anywhere. If yes, how do I send it? I have my test scheduled for Nov 1.

Calgary May applicants are probably looking at invites by the end of October only. I can see April applicants are yet to receive invites by the mid of September.

Calgary May applicant here. Got ECAS IP September 12th, had AOR on July 25th. Finally it's happening.. One quick question: Can I safely assume now that my file will not be sent back to me because of any errors/omissions in application package? I was a little worried about meeting the 1,095...

Thank you for this, it brings some relief to my over stressed out nerves.

Btw, wondering why is the Calgary office soooo slooooowwww. I can see applicants from other places sent their apps later, and received AOR and IP earlier.

Yeah exactly my thought. I will not be sending an update on this as well, and hope it doesn't come across as a bottle neck.

Is the flag polling counted a day out of Canada? I also flagpolled at rainbow bridge, but I was in and out of Canada within an hour, so I din't think it should have been included in presence calculator since they already ask when you became PR so this info is given. Any ideas? I do not want to...

@Vipul Why is it so hard to accept that a master degree is better than a diploma with respect to any measure like money, reputation, social status etc? When I opened this thread I expected some constructive information about Canada like your experiences there but what I found is purely biased...
