Hi, Times to see the exam as completed in the tracker can vary a lot. My wife took the test on the 15th, her status was updated 2 days later. I took it on the 17 and didn’t see it updated until this morning (28). Hopefully you won’t have to wait too long

Hi Nigel, You are not in trouble as having an expired PR card doesn't mean you are out of status or illegal or anything like that. You should renew it though in case you need to travel out of the country as you'll need it to come back. Source...

Hi all, Has anyone here completed the test in the last couple of weeks? I'm starting to get angsty as I completed it on June 17 and the status on the tracker still shows "Waiting for you" (as of the 27th). The weird thing is, my wife took the test on the 15th and her status was updated less...

That is only for addresses where you lived, as per the instructions there is no need to include addresses where you stayed while on vacation.

Hi all, I have a quick question about first-time tax filing. I did my short landing in March 2018 and actually moved in June. Today, I was trying to submit my income taxes through SimpleTax but validation failed at the last step. I read the help section and it seems this happens because the...

I landed March 16 on Pearson Airport, my applications just changed to "Approved". Good luck everyone!

You're not doing anything wrong, it just takes longer for some people to be able to link the application to their profile than others. For instance, I landed March 16 and it wasn't until today that I was able to link the applications.

Hi friends! Last month I did a short landing and came back to the US. I've been tracking the status of my PR cards and think my friends will be receiving them soon. I'm planning for them to send them over via Fedex to the US, but I'm wondering if I have to fill any sort of document (like a...

Hi all! I completed my landing recently and I'm trying to find a way to check the address where they will send my PR cards. During landing, the immigration officer took the address from my disembarkment card, so I just want to double check it since my handwriting isn't the most legible. I...

Thanks!

Hi friends! I'm about to do my landing and am a little confused regarding the requirement of declaring money if it's more than $10,000. I'm not actually bringing in cash or other monetary instruments, I have a US TD account and plan to simply transfer my funds to a Canadian TD account once I...

Thanks to the both of you!

Hi friends! Sorry for the repost, but last time I didn't get a clear answer and I'm still wondering what to do. I recently got my PPR email. I'm the main applicant and need a visa to travel to Canada. My wife doesn't need a visa. Should we: a. Send both passports? b. Send only my passport and...

It's clear to me that families from countries that need visa must submit their passports, and families from visa-exempt countries submit photocopies. What the instructions fail to be clear about is what to do when one family includes both cases. Does the whole family go by the scenario...

clguy, I appreciate the reply but unfortunately, it doesn't answer my question. I'm aware of what the instructions say, the problem is that they are ambiguous and don't really explain whose passports to send when not every family member is a citizen of a visa-exempt country. Common sense tells...

Hi friends! I recently received the PPR email and am wondering whether I should send my wife's passport along with mine. She is from a visa-exempt country but I am not (I'm the applicant). The wording in the PPR makes it sound like everyone has to send in their passport if the main applicant is...

Got it, thanks!

Yes, that happens. My wife and I mailed the requests together (not in the same envelope, but at the same time in the same USPS location) on July 14. They delivered them both to the FBI on July 17, and here is what happened: CC Charged for my report: October 18 Received my report on October 23...

Hello friends! I'm currently at the NA1 stage and have 1 action required on my part: obtaining the Mexican PCC for my wife. Mexico is one of the countries where, if you live outside, you have to request a PCC through the Canadian embassy there who will send the results directly to the case...

Alright, thanks to you both. Looks like we'll have to request it through the embassy.
