    My husband (from a non visa country) did his medical Aug. 19 (no upfront) and we received his PR October 20. The date approved stamped on the PR document is September 30. Hope that helps with a time line for you.

    I would write a note explaining that you realized that their are some mistakes on the document and sent them a full corrected document. I wouldn't wait for them to ask for it. This is my opinion, see what others suggest.

    It's not a refusal until they send you a refusal. ;) Don't get ahead of yourself with worry. His medical is still valid.

    Wait for the VO to request a new one Marlg. This is why they are changing the steps with the new system. No more medical upfront. I think too many have had to redo them. I'm sure you'll hear something soon. Chin up girl ::)

    LANDING IN CANADA ??? -All You Need To Know.

    I think that's why they are changing this with the new Application Kit, too many were having to redo their medicals. With the new system there will be no more upfront medicals, they will request it later. My husband applied with the soon to be old system but he didn't do his medical upfront and...

    LANDING IN CANADA ??? -All You Need To Know.

    If you don't enter by the date specified on the COPR then you forfeit your PR and will have to reapply and start from zero. You'll have to pay all the fees again as well.

    CIC's official answer is no, you don't need an eTA as a holder of COPR but I wonder how we can convince the airline with the COPR that says "Not valid for travel". I also see at the bottom of this link a new advisory, that he indeed does need it (I think...) I guess because he doesn't yet have...

    Wonder if anyone has any insight into this.... We are set to arrive in Canada Dec. 16th and my husband will do his landing when we arrive in Calgary (he's from a visa exempt country). From what I understand he only needs to show his COPR confirmation papers we received from VO Paris to board...

    I would call CIC Mississauga. With your case number they have to have some kind of information. Your lawyer should have been more direct and told them that your application has been in Paris since May and demand answers. Always better for you to call though, no one has more initiative and...

    We put photos in word documents by year. In each document, we selected photos in order of the months (4 or 6 to a page) and commented below of who, what, where etc. We also did a separate word document with photos of our wedding and reception. Then we color printed all the documents. It seemed...
