    Photos for landing interview

    I received an appointment letter for my landing interview the other day, and it requests that along with my COPR, I bring 2 photos for my PR card. When I called IRCC, the agent stated that because I had supplied 2 photos with the PPR, that I don't need to bring any photos to the interview (one...

    Avoid Rainbow Bridge

    Hi all. I just traveled to Rainbow Bridge from Toronto (arrived 11am) and was told they cut off PR landings for the day. The officer said it was cut off at 8:45am. I'm currently in a cab to Queenstown Bridge and the driver said Rainbow Bridge only accept 12 PR landings a day. Don't know if...

    Activating PR at Niagara Falls

    Hi. I've read that CBSA at Niagara Falls aren't processing PR/Work Visas via flagpole on Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays, and Mondays. Just wondering if anyone has actually entered the US via Rainbow Bridge (instead of just flagpolling), and returned immediately, and if they'll process your PR that way?

    Activating COPR & traveling soon

    Hi all. I just received my COPR in the mail, and called to make an appointment to activate it. They told me that I would receive an email in about 2 weeks with the appointment time. The problem is, I'm traveling overseas for a wedding in about 60 days, and the agent said that I probably wouldn't...

    PPR questions

    Thanks! Does the COPR arrive in the mail? On the CIC website it says "Your application was approved. Check your messages below for details." but there are no new messages.

    PPR questions

    Hello everyone. I just received the glorious PPR email and have a few questions. 1. "... you will need to submit one photocopy of the photo page and any pages containing amendments of the passport for you and for each accompanying family member". I presume this means that I do not send them a...

    Is 'Get GCMS' legit?

    I'm filling out their consent form right now to access my GCMS notes, but I'm a little concerned that they are legit, because their consent form is full of spelling errors. Should I be worried? Also, does this consent form make them a representative on my file/allow them to change things? Many...

    Does being asked for a RCMP check indicate that the previous documents/criteria have been approved?

    Just wondering if being asked for a RCMP check indicates that the previous documents/criteria such as education, work experience etc have been approved? Or do they ask for a RCMP check immediately, regardless of whether you'll end up being accepted? Thanks.

    Is there an order CIC assess documents?

    I was just asked to provide a RCMP police check, and am wondering if that indicates what documents they have assessed and approved, or if the order is completely random. Thanks.

    Will my NOC be accepted based on my reference letter?

    I won't be able to get another reference letter from the company. Do you think if I got a reference letter from my old boss, who no longer works there, they'd consider it?

    Will my NOC be accepted based on my reference letter?

    Hi, I'm a little worried that my reference letter is not as strong as the NOC's description. My employer wasn't happy when I left, and wouldn't let my boss write the reference. Instead, someone in HR did, and they downplayed my duties a bit. Can anyone tell me how strict IRCC are in this...

    Do I list all my Canadian work experience under 'Work History' or only NOC 0/A/B jobs?

    Under the 'Personal Activities' section I have listed every job I've had since turning 18. Under the 'Work History' section, do I only list my Canadian work experience that falls under a NOC skill type of 0/A/B? Or should I include all of my Canadian work experience regardless. Thanks.

I've copied the NOC description below, as well as the section of my job reference letter that relates to it. Do you think IRCC will accept it? Thanks in advance! Main duties Legal administrative...
