Hi everyone! I'm very happy to say that I landed this morning in Montreal :D It took a little longer than I expected but we were walked through all of the PR rules by a very helpful gentleman named Alex, then we did the standard questions and left with our lives ahead of us. Thank you to each...

Hi Guanaquito, I applied in Oct 2013 and got DM this morning. They had made the same request to me (as well as a new medical) in early March.

I'm very happy to say that I finally received the DM email this morning! Just waiting on the Montreal office to send a landing date - does anyone have any experience with them?

I had a similar situation and I was furious too. My wife got SA on March 5th but I got nothing. I called a few weeks later only to find out they sent a request for additional documents on March 6th but put a typo in the email address so I never got it. I was given the same BS and requested it...

I recommend that you call CIC to check that they did not send you an AIP email. My wife received he SA on March 5 but I received nothing. When I called a couple of weeks later, they told me they had sent an email on March 6 but made a mistake in my email address so I didn't receive it. Then I...

I got a new one for you guys - I received AIP a couple of weeks ago but we only received a sponsor approval email. Turns out, the AIP email sent the next day was sent to my email address but with a typo, N instead of M! I called them this morning to check on things and they confirmed that they...

Nope, nothing else requested, not yet anyway. I had been going with the assumption that paying now would make no difference so why not wait until I have to. I also don't want to rely on CIC attaching the proof of payment to the application correctly. Did you already get DM?

Hi everyone! I got full AIP on March 5 but haven't heard anything since. The sponsor approval email requested that we pay ROPR fee as soon as possible to reduce the processing time of our application. Could this be delaying my DM? I know they have 8 months to play with but it seems like most...

Thanks to both of you for the help, one more step to go I guess. I hope it's a quick one, seems like DMs have come shortly after AIP recently. Hopefully no surprises for us in the letter!

Hi everyone! I just checked my ECAS and it says "decision made" under sponsorship application, but "processing" under application for PR. Unfortunately, clicking on decision made only tells me that they sent a letter which I haven't received yet. Is this AIP, DM, or are they probably asking to...

I would be downright shocked if that was true.

I've no idea but why does it matter? It exists to be checked.

For those of you looking for a sign of progress, my wife received the sponsor approval email last night - we're hoping for AIP today. I'm an October 2nd 2013 applicant.

I could not agree more. I'm expecting AIP any day and, if I'm lucky, maybe DM at the same time. I got an OWP last February through IEC and now have a pilot program OWP. My issues with this process dramatically decreased when that permit arrived. 17 months is not appropriate for stage one...

You have no idea how excited your very understated comment made me! You filed the day before me :)

Congrats!!! Very happy for you... and me, I'm an October 2nd applicant! Any day now...

Since we've been married we've never been apart.

Including the OWP app does give you implied status (as long as it gets to cic before Feb 10) but it's worth thinking about extended the visitor status. It could be seen as a waste of money but, to us, it was worth the piece of mind of knowing nothing can accidentally make you out of status.

Of course Blackdisc, you're correct being visa exempt doesn't guarantee anything. My experience is conditional on being a good little temporary resident for cic! I've never been out of status or broken any laws. And actually did experience difficulty entering as a visitor although it always...

In my time in Canada, I've had four study permits and I'm now on my third work permit (PGWP, IEC and Pilot). Every single one has said "does not permit re-entry". I've crossed to the US and flown home to the UK 20 or 30 times in total. If I was not from a visa exempt country, maybe I would be...
