    Correct. The official processing time for PR card is 42 days though. We might also request an emergency processing considering my spouse is going back for medical reasons.

    For the ETA, it has been confirmed - you can't apply for ETA as a PR, it simply will deny your application every time. I am going to try to get my PR card on time and if it fails, I'll travel to New York and drive to Canada. I can't cancel my trips, too much money involved, and I am going to...

    I am a Belgian citizen, she is Spanish. My understanding is that no eTA will be issued for Permanent Residents that have already landed, so I'll be left with dealing with a PRTD, which might be complicated since we both travelling in different country, and I personally will be in Georgia... I...

    I will answer in English since most of the people on this forum speaks English (and that my keyboard has no accents!). I understand that once I landed, I am a Permanent Resident in the eyes of Canadian immigration, but I was repeatedly told, and I could read it online, that if I was to leave...

    OK so we won't have the COPR until at least March 1st (we waiting on her passport to be renewed because expiring soon). Then we have a trip outside of Canada booked in April. Should I wait until then to activate my COPR or I do it earlier but then am I able to travel while I waiting for my PR...

    Same for me!!! Ready for Visa! But I am wondering what are the next steps. They are asking me to send copies of our passports, but then what? How long does it take to get the card? Anybody knows. We are currently in Canada.

    I just got this answer to my most recent Case Specific Enquiry: "We verified the information you provided and can confirm that a decision has been made on the application. Rest assured that the responsible office will contact you by mail or email to provide you with that decision. We hope the...

    My fiance and I had the same problem: we traveled extensively, including Middle-East, China, etc. I have been asking around and talking to lawyers, consultants and folks in the government where I work. The answer I got is that, yes, that type of travel can raise some flags, and if you reach a...

    Still waiting... Got a ghost update a few days ago. Since then, nothing. I got a one-year BOWP so I am less stressed, but I wonder that the hell is going on there.

    It says that there is a NOC code that matches my work experience better, but that "it does not affect my eligibility" so I have no clue what the review is for. I suspect the delay is caused by my spouse (I can't see her notes they were all blacked out since I ordered it under my name) because...

    I am afraid nobody knows. I have been waiting 10 months, and nothing has happened. We are just the unlucky ones. Don't get too annoyed by it, it will come eventually.

    Still waiting. Applied for BOWP on September 19th, still no answer. I must leave the country on December 16 to go home for the holidays, and it stresses me a lot. For the PR, I am going crazy, as we applied January 27th... I raised two CSE, I ordered my notes (not helpful), I asked my boss (I...

    I am in the exact same situation. 10 months in, applied through FSW for myself and my spouse. Currently both working in Canada (for government!), did CSE (formatted answer "please continue waiting") and requested my GMCS note, which still states "Eligibility: Review Required" (I think it's...

    Thank you. I have sent a Case Specific Enquiry last week, and if by the end of the month I do not get additional info, I will request GCMS notes.
