Two weeks later my COPR was received today! Am now ready to head to immigration and get it officially. Thank you everyone here for all the help to my many questions, its been a LONG 11 month process that I am so relieved is over. Good luck to everyone!

AH I totally forgot to mention around three weeks ago they asked to re-send new passport photos. Does this change anything?

Logged into myCIC today and noticed under My Permanent Residence Application Status it now says Decision Made. However there is no sign of what that decision is as yet. When I click on the Decision Made link it just says what it has for the last 6 months which is '3.Medical results have been...

Hi guys, Quick question: I was just looking at the amazing spreadsheet you guys have and I just noticed processing times can range from 40 days to 280 days plus depending on whether your processing office was in Ottawa or London. Our application went through London so it's going to take a...

How long are the CIC approved medical results valid for? I got mine completed in September last year.

Thats great thank you. Just to clear some things up though, it is a Marriage application, not common law. And London is my current location. And lastly, the letter was from the case processing centre in Mississauga, but it says my application has been forwarded to the visa office in London...

OK so myself and my partner have changed our plans a little based on your help here. When I arrive in May, i will have an exiting flight to California booked for mid Sept - which will be four months after I land in Toronto. So hopefully that should help with entry into the country. I will also...

Great thank you. So December 23rd 2015, which would suggest an approval time of around late September early October 2016 if the average stays the same and there are no errors or missing information.

Thank you for the advice! Here are the details you requested to be added to the spreadsheet. DATE OF SPONSOR APPROVAL: 24th February 2016 (This was the date on the confirmation letter we received stating my partner had met the requirements for eligibility as a sponsor) OFFICE FOR APPLICATION...

Wow, thank you for the advice guys. I didn't realise they would know about the PR applications, glad I bought this up. Appreciate the comments. OKAY, so it looks like the best option is just to tell the truth. I will be visiting my husband for a few months whilst my PR goes through, and he will...

Thanks for all the help guys, much appreciated. Another issue I am slightly concerned about, i'm currently in the UK, and when I enter Canada in a few weeks, I don't currently have a return ticket booked. Does anyone think this could be an issue with me going in? I was planning on saying that I...

One last question in terms of processing times for my PR, when I log into CIC to check the process, it says this.... Permanent Residence We received blibblobblib's application for permanent residence on December 23, 2015. We started processing blibblobblib's application on March 4, 2016. Are...

Bugger. I knew that would be a reason I wouldn't be exempt. I *WISH* there was some way I could get work over there, my life would be so much easier haha. Living apart from my husband another 10 months isn't an option. Thank you for the help guys.

That is true, it's not as dire as it could be but still not a factor alone that allows me to stay in Canada. I may be able to extend my client base, this is something i'm looking into now as it looks like it may be my only source of income!

Thank you for all the advice guys. It does sound like applying for a work permit through LMIA is possible, but pointless as my PR may be approved before the work permit is. I have been reading through the options on the CIC site and here at this link regarding exemptions from LMIA [EDIT -...

Hello everyone. My story is I am 33 years old from the UK and I married my Canadian husband in London last year before he returned to Ontario and I remained in the UK. We immediately applied for the Outland Spousal Sponsorship, and we were notified it was received December 23, 2015. He has...

Thank you for the link. And thank you for the explanation regarding the OWP. I will have to attempt to find an employer willing to go the route of the LMIA process to hire me, but like you say I can imagine it is a difficult process. But if this is the only option I have it is the only route I...

Thank you so much for the quick reply Ponga. That's great news about the UK wait time, hopefully our case is not complicated and there are no delays. Do you have a link for the Outland UK thread? I can't find it when I search. That's unfortunate about the OWP, do you know why I do not...

Hello everyone. I'm sure these questions have been asked a hundred times before but any willing and knowledgable members who can help me with answers would be hugely appreciated. My story is i am 33 years old from the UK and I married my Canadian husband in London last year before he returned...

Hi, I have an urgent question and can see from previous posts on this forum that similar questions have been asked but have yet to see a query exactly as mine, so I apologise if the answer is the same but I wanted to be double sure before entering the country as I can't seem to find an answer...
