    Thread for Outland LONDON, UK Applications!

    Hey fellow Londoners, I got my COPR today. I applied on Feb 26th and it all came through today, so to give you an idea of timings, it took just over 10 months for me. I've got 1 year to land, but we're planning on moving end of January. We just want to get out there! :D ;D :P

    I got COPR today! Woo hop! Applied Feb 26th and today was the day it all came through. I have exactly 1 full year to land, but my wife and I have decided to move end of January. So happy! Thanks to everyone on this board who has helped me with answers over the last few months. ;D ;D

    Recieved decision made. Now what?

    Thanks for the reply. The part about passport says: A photocopy of the photo and personal information pages of your passport and of the passport(s) of your accompanying spouse and dependent children to our office in London. So I just have to provide a photocopy of my passport photo...

    Recieved decision made. Now what?

    I received an email from CIC today saying that my application in the final stages and ready for COPR. I have also checked on ecas and it now says "Decision made". However, the email has said that to issue my permanent visa, I now need to submit my photographs, copies of passport and complete an...

    RPRF to COPR? How long?

    Was "invited" to pay RPRF a few weeks ago, and did so promptly. Is this an indication that I may be getting closer to COPR? I assume they don't ask applicants to pay RPRF unless they are close to making a final decision right? My app is at CIC Ottawa and has been processing since May 5th...

    Send additional docs by email or post or both?

    Thank you for your advice. I will send all additional documents to the email address and not by post. It's good to know that someone else got the email yesterday too. Nice to know I'm not alone!

    Send additional docs by email or post or both?

    Received an email from CIC Ottawa yesterday. They have asked us to send some more documents to prove my sponsors intent to reside in Canada. Should we send these docs on email to CPC-CTD-Ottawa@cic.gc.ca or should we send them in the post? or should we do both? Just don't want to send...

    How will CIC confirm COPR?

    Thanks. Do they send a confirmation by email first? That's how they confirmed my wife as my sponsor. Do they do the same for COPR?

    How will CIC confirm COPR?

    The first stage of my application was approved on 30 April (wife was approved as my sponsor). My application has been at Ottawa ever since, and based on current processing times for this office, I estimate I may get COPR in October. My questions is, how do CIC contact you confirm PR? Will they...

    Thread for Outland LONDON, UK Applications!

    Hi everyone. My Canadian wife got SA on April 30th and my application was sent to Ottawa for processing. We were advised by CIC that it would take up to 16 months but "could be sooner". Anyone got any experience or knowledge of average/actual processing times for immigration forms at Ottawa...

    Spoke to CIC-M today. My wife has got SA!!! Actually, turns out she got approved at the end of April, we just didn't get the email. Either way, she is now approved as my sponsor and my application is now being processed in Ottawa! Been waiting for this news for a long time! Next stop - COPR...

    Landing in Canada...

    Am I right in assuming that once you get COPR, you only need to LAND in Canada by the deadline date but you don't need to necessarily STAY in Canada from the deadline date? I have read that people land in Canada, check in with the PR people and then fly back out to their home country to continue...

    CIC received our immigration on Feb 24th. Still haven't heard a thing from them. No AOR, no SA...processing times now say they are working on April 1st applications. I've tried calling CIC, but they never answer. I've sent an email, but no reply. God, this waiting is just awful. The worse part...

    Did you call the CIC from outside of Canada?

    Outside processing time. ECAS still not working.

    I only use Skype. Doesn't make any difference. Still can't get through.

    Outside processing time. ECAS still not working.

    My Canadian wife lives with me here in the UK. Neither of us have ever had any correspondence from CIC, so we don't have UCI numbers or file numbers. The only number I have that I can use for ECAS search is the receipt number from the money we paid to file the application. But that yields...

    I still don't have AOR or SA. We sent our application on Feb 16 and they received it on Feb 24. Surely we should have received AOR and SA by now? We are technically outside of the processing time now, by about 2 weeks. My wife is my sponsor. Will the AOR and SA go to her email address or mine...

    Outside processing time. ECAS still not working.

    So, CIC received my application on Feb 24th. I still have not heard anything - no AOR or SA yet. I am checking the ECAS system almost every day. I enter our receipt number, family name and date of birth. I have tried my date of birth and my wife's date of birth. I have also tried my wife's...
