Was surprised to see a message from me quoted after all this time. It's been 2 years now wow. Hope everyone else got what they wished for too. Good luck to all those still in the process :)

Nard, Last post on this thread was a year ago!! Feb 2016. Why are you replying an old thread like this?! Create a new post with your question or reply to a newer more relevant one. And your AOR was in Feb 2017. Are you seriously asking when you will get your PR? You've still got ages to go...

Didnt the previous person say thats only in Canada?

Can you post the links to the podcasts as I feel it could be valuable to others. Theres no much information no YouTube, it will help to highlight out some of the useful ones.

This a great post, well done. I know its been more than 60 days for last post, but its worth commenting just to say thank you, and more importantly, to raise awareness so it can help people. CAVEAT, I have no kids, or a wife, so my opinion below is purely my opinion and guesswork. I moved to...

I know this is an old topic, but it appears in google none the less. I found this site, but I do not know how legit it is, use at own risk: http://www.iom.int/concession-fares They seem to give big discounts for immigrants. Discounted fares, extra baggage etc. As a side note, when I...

;DLANDED! :-D Not doing soft landing, this is permanent. 3 x 23kg suitcases with 90% clothes, hand luggage, and a 3D printer DIY kit 8) It was a few days ago (Sunday 10th July) but thought I would still update you. But most of you know via the WhatsApp group already anyway. My timelines...

I don't want to move it all out of the UK until the UK Pound is stronger. Right now it's quite weak due to all the Brexit stuff. Value has dropped by 10%. At this rate, its better to take out a Canadian Loan / Personal Line of Credit, and use that until my salary comes in. If I can get a rate at...

ok thanks. And when they come asking about the source, I presume they will then also ask about the interest that that money/source may have been earning abroad. So from the day of PR, I'll have to keep track of this for all savings accounts, loans, shares, dividends etc correct? OR, just move...

Ahhhhhh. Phewwww. More sigh of relief. So did I just read the below wrong?

Ah perfect! Thanks pfse, for that super super fast reply. So just "income" on the savings will be taxed. Good. With Brexit, I dont exactly want to convert my pounds into anything else right now, as the value has gone down. As for your note about declaring it, I only know about the goods...

Hi all, Just attended the CIIP session, and Im CONFUSED. People in the session (Attendees) were saying that money you take with you when you land in Canada you can bring tax free, but then anything after that is liable for tax. Is that correct?? This in one way makes sense, as its "income"...

Quick update, COPR received in the post today! :) My timelines: FSW Outland, applying from UK. Single sole applicant. AOR 25 Jan Medicals passed a few days after Then BG change on ~approx 14 May. Now PPR on 7 June. Delivery receipt of documents at London VO: 9 June. Application approved 24...

In the supposed COPR letter shown in MyCIC, my name is listed twice in the table, once for IMM5785 and then underneath for IMM5688. Any ideas why twice? Also, why do I get this letter, as I thought COPR was two letters, one with photo and one without, which I need to take to the Port of Entry...

Hi all, received a "confirmation" of COPR a few days ago, but waiting to get the actual COPR in the post. London VO seems to take a while doing this. I have delivery confirmation from 9th June at Canada House, so its been 2 weeks. Others going to Canada House have reported 7-10 days. Either...

For transferring check out https://transferwise.com/u/fab5 I have used TransferWise to beat the crazy high bank fees, and its been really fast. Love it. Hope it helps you too. And yes, the link above is a referral link, so if you sign up, I get a thank you of some kind. but I do just want to...

Hey all, For the London VO, how long does it take for PPR/Ready for Visa and submitting those docs, to actually getting those docs and COPR back? I have special delivery confirmation that London VO received the docs on 9 June, and my flight is booked 10 July and job starts 18 July. Slight...

Hey all, is there a WhatsApp group for landing? Post PPR/Post COPR? Either a General group or one for BC (British Columbia). Please let me know as I really want to join one to join in on the chat on relocating and getting ready. I cant really post my number on the forum so publicly, but please...

No you don't have PR until you get COPR. Have you sent the photos and copy of passport and copy of letter ? Just read the Ready for Visa letter very carefully. It explains everthing
