    DECISION MADE?!?

    Just FYI, I received DM before PPR Request. Being from the UK I'm visa-exempt but did have to mail off photos, additional information sheet and scan of passport ID page (believe these are used for the PR card). So you probably have one last thing to do! Congarats on your news though :)

    JULY 2014 OUTLAND APPLICATIONS!

    Pretty smoothly really! We went into secondary and quickly saw a CBSA guard. I handed over my passport and COPR, he looked over it and then asked me what my address was. I began to recite it but then he stopped me and asked, "Do you have a driver's licence or piece of ID with it on?" When I...

    Just landed at the Peach Arch. The mini Canadian flag from the CBSA guard was a nice touch! Thanks all and good luck! :)

    Thread for Outland LONDON, UK Applications!

    Just received my COPR :) Just the landing to go! It arrived in the second Xpresspost envelope I supplied to CPC-Ottawa. Thanks everyone for your help/support and good luck to everyone else waiting!

    Thread for Outland LONDON, UK Applications!

    Congrats! Was it in the inconspicuous brown envelope? Let's hope they send PR cards in the requested second xpresspost envelope - I will be pissed off if they've made us fork out for these only to throw them away.

    Immigration photos for PPR

    Strange as my letter specifically asked you to write your application number and name on the back of each. I'm sure the date stamps will be fine.

    Should we send a copy of passport to London UK or CPC-OTTAWA for final process

    Are we to assume that they will be sending our COPR's back in the second envelope then? Only I've read other people's letter arrives in a standard brown envelope usually. Or is this for a PR card? I guess it'll be nice to have our own tracking number so we can keep tabs on how it's coming.

    Thread for Outland LONDON, UK Applications!

    Quick update: Received request for the photos, updated info chart and photocopy of passport by email today. Have already mailed these off to Ottawa. Ecas had updated to 'decision made' over a week ago, so I had been hoping that COPR was already on its way but I guess not. If there's one thing...

    Should we send a copy of passport to London UK or CPC-OTTAWA for final process

    Hi Lina, I also received the same request this morning (and coincidentally am also in Van, BC). I'm going to send mine to Ottawa as I believe this will be much faster than sending it to London. In my experience, letters and cards I send back to the UK take a while to get there by Canadapost so...

    I'm not sure if it was late yesterday or this morning, but my ecas status has changed to DECISION MADE! Can't quite believe it! Hoping to see our COPR soon!

    JULY 2014 OUTLAND APPLICATIONS!

    Congrats, Antoinetee! You are the first of the July Outland group to get DM I believe. I went 'in process' over a month ago and had been hoping to hear by now given the quick turnaround in Mississauga but nothing yet. Fingers crossed for next week.

    Medical in Vancouver

    I went to Desmond P. Dwyer on W Broadway. I called around a few of them and he was the cheapest and had appointments readily available. Everything was really smooth on the day. They take your photos, there was a short wait for a couple of tests and the examination, then you go down the road to...

    Sorry to hear your news, Alexji. As a fellow July Outland applicant it has been really disappointing to read your updates today. I really hope you can find a way to resolve your situation and reunite your family in Canada. All the best.

    JULY 2014 OUTLAND APPLICATIONS!

    I don't think that table is particularly accurate. I believe most people will get "medical results received" first, whilst the status is "application received" - I certainly did. I guess it's when the details are pulled across from the e-medical system and linked with your file. The status will...

    Will being on a visitor visa effect applications

    I recently came back to YVR as a visitor whilst PR pending (waiting for stage 2) and I did get a bit of hassle from the border guard. I naively assumed he'd be able to pull up all that kind of info on the computer but instead he just asked tons and tons of questions. When I offered to show him...

    Yes, for SA it will only be the sponsor will receive an email/letter. Sounds like good news (finally) though if they have said your application has been forwarded on.
