We had a great big party on the weekend. It was great. My friends decorated the apartment with balloons representing the colors from my countries, Mexico, Costa Rica and now Canada. It was a blast.

Muchas gracias! Estoy de lo mas feliz. No me lo puedo creer. No plans other than go back to work that day. I am sure I will celebrate on the weekend though. My friends who know how this process is are eagerly awaiting a Landing Party. :-) Thanks everyone for your good wishes!

I got good news in the shape of a nice brown envelope today...I land April 14th! Yay, I am so excited. After 14 months I am landing. :D

Hahahaha, thats okay. ;)

Thanks kiwikris. I'll keep you guys posted on any progress. :)

Progress has been made: “We sent you a letter on March 22, 2011 to XXX, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, XXX about the decision on your application. Please consider delays in mail delivery before contacting us. If we have sent the letter to the wrong address, please contact us.” Looks like I will...

A new update for me today when I got an e-cas tracker email: “We sent you a letter on March 22, 2011 to XXX, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, XXX about the decision on your application. Please consider delays in mail delivery before contacting us. If we have sent the letter to the wrong address...

Hi Gwaii, I applied in 2009 (December 30, 2009) and I am still waiting. I have my AIP and OWP. I was able to find a job quickly after receiving my OWP and have kept quite busy but I am really looking forward to getting PR. According to my FOSS notes my bf date is this Thursday so I guess we...

Hi Jean, Welcome to the inlanders thread! You are correct, permenent residents are entitled to work and have health care however what people are refering to is the Open Work Permit which if approved (this happens after you receive approval in principal) will allow you to work while you wait...

I'd be happy to help but I need some more information to better help you such as when your application was recieved, whether or not you have AIP yet. Also, can you copy exactly what it says on your ecas?

Hi Mimi 1. Fill out this form: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/pdf/kits/forms/IMM1249E.PDF (Check option "C") 2. Write "OPEN WORK PERMIT" at the top of the page 3. Make sure you send it in with everything requested on the Document Checklist under "All Applicants" and "Work Permit"...

Black-berry: I feel like the people on this thread are like a little immigration family and like a family we care about eachother when things are good or bad so please don't feel like you should stop posting. I care and want to help and be there for you and know how things are going. Hugs to you!

I believe it was after

Always take what the agents say with a grain of salt. I called when my date had passed for AIP and was told the same thing (call in 30 days etc), I called a week later and was told my letter was in the mail. The agents will give you pat respones but may not know that your file is being looked at...

Black-berry, I feel stunned to read what you posted. I cannot believe it. I am so sorry. But like everyone has said, you are strong and tough and will be just fine. Your marriage is legitimate so think of this as a formality. Hopefully your local office will process you quickly. We are all here...

Gwaii, sounds like good news to me. I hope and really think it will be your AIP. Please come back and keep us posted. Congrats and best of luck! :)

We are totally in the same boat. I sent in my police certificate a couple weeks ago and now I am just going to try to be patient. I'll keep you posted on any progress. BTW, it took about 10 days for my FOSS notes to arrive, not the 30 days I was told.

I found the bring forward date on my FOSS notes. Looks like I can just sit back and not worry as I won't be hearing anything until after the end of December. It was worth ordering FOSS notes just for that. :)

Sorry to hear about the delay Janadian. I wish there was something more we could do than tell you we feel for you. Hugs

Love _Young, I think the police certificate must be received within three months from when the police certificate was issued. So for example, my police certificate was received at CPC on Oct 8, 2010 but it won't be attached to my file until around mid-December. Adzees, Thanks for the tip...
