For those who are wondering, I called CIC to make an appointment the day after I got COPR. An email with the scheduled appointment came 2 business days after and the actual appointment was 2 weeks after I called CIC. So it takes roughly 2 weeks from calling CIC to landing at the Etobicoke...

Hi all, I'm planning to land at a CIC office. I called an agent today and he told me that the Etobicoke office will set an appointment date within 2 weeks. Has anyone had experience with how long it will actually take to receive the appointment date? And how long after that is the actual...

Hi Asivad, I have a question similar to this. For my home country, officially (by law) I have to apply for the PCC in person and cannot authorize other persons to apply on my behalf (it states on the CIC PCC site too). I'm living in Canada, so going back to my home country to get a PCC is...

Just to confirm - we should submit 35x45mm in the e-APR and then 50x70mm if CIC requests it for in PPR?

Hi Asivad, I'm a bit confused a bit. On the "intake-complete" website it says 50x70mm, but in the post-ITA upload field it says 35x45mm: Frame Size: The final frame size of the photo must be at least 35mm x 45mm. The photographs must show a full front view of the head and tops of shoulders...

It's 4 MB for each file/section according to http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/helpcentre/answer.asp?q=1123&t=23.

According to the first paragraph in http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/funds.asp, CEC applicants don't need to show proof of funds.

The instructions says the minimum is 420x540 - you should get your photo to that resolution.

Has anyone who did not list travels between country of origin and country of residence got their application approved? There's no harm in listing those trips though, but then it's kinda not good to not follow the instructions.

Yes, the detailed travel history is required for both PA and spouse. The full question is: "Has John Doe, and if applicable, John Doe's family members taken any trips outside their country of residence or of origin in the last 10 years (or since their 18th birthday if this was less than 10 years...

Thanks! In my address history period I will put my brother's address. The only concern is that I don't really have any proof that I stayed there.

Hi Asivad, I have a question on address history: Some context: I was a student in Canada in from 2008 to 2012. During the summer holidays in 2011 I didn't lease an apartment/house and stayed at my brother's place (another city in Canada) for a month and went to travel to my home country for...

How about taking the country of residence (which we mentioned in address history) to be the origin of travel?

Thanks for your reply, Asivad. Just another thought, could the question be asking to mention any trips where I had to cross the border of the country of origin or country of residence? In which case the travel from country of residence to country of origin should be mentioned.

Hi Asivad, please advise about Travel History section: My country of origin is X and my country of residence is Canada. For the last 10 years, I have only traveled between those 2 countries. So for the question "Provide details of any trips leonht has taken outside his/her country of origin or...

I'm in a similar situation. The question in that section is: "Provide details of any trips you have taken outside your country of origin or of residence in the last ten years". I think travels between A and B need not to be mentioned (since it's between country of residence and country of...

Just a thought... if an individual has got ITA under PNP but is eligible CEC, would he/she have to provide PoF?

Hi all, Are there any requirements for scan quality of supporting documents? As far as I know, the only requirement is for each file to be 4 MB or less. Some of my scans are at 100 dpi in order to fit in 4 MB. The quality is not ideal, but it's readable. Any thoughts on what is the...

Hi Asivad, I have a question about document organization: My bank letters are not exactly in the format that CIC requires. In addition to the bank letters, I'm planning to attach my bank statements for the last 6 months. Would it make more sense if I put them all in one file? Or should I put...

I'll follow the size on the checklist then. MrTee, did you end up sending scanned photo or a digital photo?
