We've never changed our address and the address in ECAS is our California address. Our letter carriers are terrible though so I'm worried. I did try the call centre last week but was essentially told that they won't look in the file until 16 months. I'm going to try calling again to get...

We got our DM on June 2 - still nothing in the mail. Anyone else in California with an idea on how long it takes a COPR to get from Ottawa to California?

Probably not worth it unless the car is at least 15 years old, that's the cutoff for being subject to the Motor Vehicle Safety Act. Here's some more info: https://www.tc.gc.ca/eng/motorvehiclesafety/safevehicles-importation-1338.htm

I don't think that's what people are taking issue with - I think it's the way she stated that because of her "perfect" application and the fact that she has children made her application somehow better than everyone else's, especially since many others have similar applications and family...

We got DM this morning! :D

The OP removed it in his post but it still shows in your quote of his post - don't forget to edit it out. ;)

I wouldn't do it - I think you're asking for trouble. A better option might be to look into taking over someone's lease using a site like LeaseBusters. I just did a quick search on there and for example there's a '13 Mazda3 wagon with 12 months and 30,000km remaining on the lease for about...

Just checked ECAS: IN PROCESS!!!!!!!!!!!!! Says they started evaluating on May 26. Ottawa's been productive this week!!

Our additional documents were received in Ottawa on 4/20/15 according to FedEx, so we're hoping for positive news soon! We've already got a room full of packed boxes for the move. Less than 90 days until moving day now.

Another update! We got an email from Ottawa this morning asking for the following: Status Enquiry: Please provide a letter of admission/registration to the University of British Columbia Status Enquiry: Please provide additional proof of intent to resume residency in Canada: This includes but...

I'm a U.S./Canada dual citizen currently residing in the U.S. I opened a bank account with Vancity last year when we were up north for my cousin's wedding and getting all our medicals and such done for my common-law partner. For 2014 I earned $4.61 in interest on the accounts and I have no...

Our ECAS was just updated with "Medical Results Received" some time over the last three days. Exciting to see something happen, even if it's not an actual DM!

Were you notified about that or did you just check ECAS? Also, "In Process" as we know it here refers to the applicant's status going from App Received to In Process, correct?

Absolutely! Anything that shows you want to settle in Canada and contribute to the Canadian economy will improve your application. You should also investigate what you need to do in order to have your nursing credentials recognized in Canada and include any research you've done on that and/or...

I have a unique car that I want to bring with us to Canada. It is a second generation Toyota RAV4 EV, of which only 2600 have been made. Currently, I lease it, but I intend to purchase it out from Toyota Financial prior to moving. The car was manufactured in Woodstock, ON. Despite the fact...

Just to make you feel a little better, I am in a similar situation in that I am currently a full-time student sponsoring my common-law partner and I received sponsorship approval yesterday. I made sure to detail in my explanation sheet the circumstances of my being a full-time student and...

Just to update on this, I received SA today despite not having Option C or paystubs. My U.S. tax return, transcript, and explanation letter were apparently sufficient.

Thanks, everyone, for all the congratulations! Let's hope this marks the first of many swift SAs for us September folks! I got two emails from CIC at ~8AM PDT. The first one had a letter attached saying they were refunding me $75, I guess I had overpaid the fee. The second email, about 5...

We received SA this morning!!!! ;D

Some people don't have 12 months of paystubs. I have been a full time student for the entire year so I included my last year taxes, my transcript reflecting full time student status, and a letter explaining that being a full time student precludes you from receiving welfare in the State of...
