Sorry for creating a new thread, I tried search but couldn't find my answer. My situation: American being sponsored by Canadian...American passport expires next September (2017)...I'll be ready to send my Outland application by November 1st. Should I be renewing my US passport before I send...

Wow. For such a long gruelling process the final step is the easiest. Got there at 1:30, in the office with the VO at 1:35, out of there at 1:45. Literally 15 minutes and that's all she wrote. Typical questions asked: commited any offense, asked to be removed from Canada, denied entry to...

Thanks :D. 2 more hours till Canada Place!

I land in Edmonton tomorrow!!! We can go between 9am-11am or 1pm-230pm, we're going to go at around 1pm. I'll let you guys know how it goes!

When we did our medical we just went to one of the immigration doctors listed on CIC's website and they had all the paper work ready to go and then they send it to CIC I believe. Good idea. I would definitely do the medicals and pay the other half in the new year and hopefully the medicals are...

Line.a, you should get on your medical stuff and send it in right away.With a straight forward case like yours there is a good chance you would get AIP/DM in the same day just like I did!

My condolences go out to you and your family. I would go home if I were you, the border patrol are real people with feelings too (can be strict though), They will undestand and show remorse. I guess it does depend if you're from a visa exempt country, but I would try and go home if I were you...

Also lets be clear here, getting married just so you can sponsor someone and so they can work is highly frowned upon. Yes I know you're in love with him, but after 6 months you will be under extreme scrutiny from CIC, for valid reasons.

Agree with Rob, if you fast track it and get married just to get him working, it won't look good. And the whole inland process is over 1 full year anyways.

Companies in Alberta these days won't bother doing LMO's and they won't get approved because their are so many jobs available and Canadians will get first shot, because any company won't have a hard time finding a worker especially over your boyfriend who has no trade or special skils. I don't...

@ Isthisoveryet, Yes I literally waited 2 days for landing letter and 3 days for OWP and I'm in Sherwood Park. So when your time comes hopefully you get the same time frames as me. Thanks again guys. I'll be sticking around and letting you guys know how the landing appointment goes and I'll...

Hi everyone...again. I don't even know if you guys are going to believe me anymore. I got my OWP in the mail today that was dated December 3rd, 2013. A quick recap of the last 7 days of my life. November 29th got engaged, partied after December 3rd got AIP/DM, partied that night December 4th...

Also this might be a silly questions but is COPR a document that I will get after I land on the 23rd?

Thanks Guri! And thanks for doing the spread sheet again, much appreciated. Yeah I can't believe in a matter of 3 days this whole process is complete for me.

Very cool niks! I will let you know how the landing visit goes and if you have any questions I can help you out for yours. Hopefully they don't make you re-do the medical. Ours cost us about $400 in Edmonton. I'm hoping they get going again and you hear some good news in January!

Hi guys, anyone in here land at Canada Place in downtown Edmonton recently? I land December 23rd and am just wondering if you were able to get your SIN # at the same time. And is there a special/different place I have to go in the building to get it? Thanks in adance.

thanks guys. It truley is unbelieavable that it happened so fast. Here I was thinking I would have to wait till the new year for all of this stuff. I really really really hope that they continue to give AIP/DM at the same time for the applicants that have submitted medicals and paid all fees up...

Hi everyone, Well it's been quite a week for me. AIP + DM on December 3rd, haven't heard anything about my OWP, BUT today I got my landing letter in the mail!!!! Unbelievable! 2 days after AIP/DM the letter got to us, that is unreal timing. I land in Edmonton on December 23rd. Can't believe...

you have to have more than 10 posts on this forum to be able to send private messages, so send a couple more and then the option should be available!

Thanks for the info Gina! And thanks again to the rest of you. I really really hope applications for the rest of January and February start to roll through.
