Asking for a friend and would appreciate any help. He has spent 1 out of the last 5 years outside of Canada. When he's filling out the physical presence forms it says that he has to fill out the residence outside of Canada form but that seems to be for public servants that want to count the...

I requested urgent processing about a month ago (after the Decision Made status was changed for my file). Today I received my first update since submitting it saying that "Please be advised that your request for urgent processing has been forwarded to the local IRCC office responsible for...

You should have parked at the mall for free and walked over:)

Yes you can keep the documents with you. Just put them on an empty seat or on the floor.

In Scarborough they didn't give exact oath date. They made it very clear that they haven 12 months from the date your application was received to invite you for oath.

Had my test recently at Scarborough and I was done in under 30 mins...but it depends on how fast you finish your test and how your interview goes. Arrive about 15 mins before your test time. No need to get there any earlier than that since there isn't alot of seating room. You will get a green...

Hi All I need some help answering Question # 9. Prior to getting PR I was a student and worked on a Post grad work permit. 1. Since the visas in my passport say student (during the time before PR) do I just put my status as student from 2012 onward or do I need to separate the times when I...

Hi All, I'm looking for some guidance with trying to apply for a TRV for my boyfriend. He has applied twice in the past and been denied so I want to make sure that the third application is successful. This will be the first time that I will be the one sponsoring him. Currently I work for...

I re sent mine Feb 26th, but I landed November 13th.

Has anyone received their PR card after re sending photos ? I really want to go on vacation for Easter but I need the card to leave the country. :'(

So If the Sponsor is unmarried but their brother or sister wants to immigrate would they still be able to sponsor them ?

You won't be able to do it with just a photo copy. The actual COPR is two carbon copy type pages. So when you sign on one copy it prints on to the second copy. Chances are your home photo copier doesn't have this type of paper. They also send a photo along with the document so they would need...

300 is a very low score and Ontario will not give you nomination unless you have 400.. no matter how much family you already have in Ontario. Try to improve you score.

Do we have to apply for initial PR card or does the process start automatically once we have landed?

The degree of difficulty associated with find a skilled job after graduation has remained unchanged since the new program started. The big cities are very competitive and you can't blame Canada for giving Canadians preference for jobs. There are many skilled jobs in smaller communities across...

You can't blame Canada for wanting the best immigrants. If you're here for 6 years ( 4 years undergrad and 2 years work experience) you should make an effort to improve your English or french and get it to at least CLB 9 if not perfect.

International students are not as screwed as everyone thinks. If you work two years and you are within the typical age of a recent graduate and you've got good English skills your score will be 469. With the express entry program we are seeing CEC applications processed in 2-3 months. When you...

This makes me really happy !!!! Very thankful that they are counting temporary residence days towards citizenship again. I'm also getting married next year so it will be great to have my husband living with me right away rather than waiting two years. If we had gotten married before my PR...

Its about 30 mins longer each way to go to the peace bridge instead of the rainbow bridge. It seems like unless you are gonna be waiting more than an hr at the rainbow bridge it may not be worth it.
