Sorry the the delayed response and confusion. Both PR applicant and sponsor have had their applications approved, and I imagine got COPR. I believe they were only waiting for their landing appointment... Hope that makes sense.

Hi all, been a while since I was here. I'm hoping someone here has an answer for a question a friend of mine has. Since COVID-19 is a big issue in the U.S., my friend, a U.S. citizen who has already had their outland spousal application approved, travelled up to Canada with their Canadian...

To echo @k.h.p. , it all kind of depends. The provincial stuff alone might not be enough, so try to get the PA's name on anything and everything. That includes a bank account. Ask around and see if any banks don't need, or are willing to work around, a SIN. Best bet (and a good idea anyway) is...

Are you looking for advice? If yes, my only advice is to not show up until shortly before your scheduled time. Having done my landing there, I can tell you that the actual waiting area is quite small and so the odds of you being let in beforehand are not that great. Once you are in, expect to...

If you two are in fact okay with your partner not working for several months AND you want to be together, apply inland. It's a bit of a longer waiting game, and traveling abroad can be nervy for your partner prior to attaining an OWP, but it might be the best route for what you two want. As far...

Agreed. Even then, OP shouldn't be surprised if the TRV is denied.

There should have been two receipts...

My Canadian wife was a full-time grad student (worked minimally) when we applied and waited for a decision. Besides filling out the forms of past/current income, she wrote a very brief letter noting that she was a full-time student, had some bursaries/financial aid, and would likely find a job...

I have a similar question. I believe my old passport has my original entry date, but my new passport definitely doesn't have my most recent entry into Canada (CBSA didn't stamp passport at the airport). What can I do to substantiate most recent entry into Canada? I don't have my airline tickets...

At this point there's really no timeline for anything. You could receive a letter stating your app is complete as soon as any minute now, to weeks down the line. So just wait some more and keep in mind that all is well. More good news will come down the line. (FYI, I got DM both sides weeks ago...

Landing interview. Congrats!!!

I wouldn't worry too much, if at all. At this stage, it's all about if someone picks up your file, plus the PA's background/country of origin. You very well could get some news in the not-too-distant future. The PA links the application to their GCKey.

The PA has 30 days from the date of the letter to complete the medical. CIC will see that your husband completed his exams within the timeframe. No need to worry.

Congrats, and hope you get at least a partial refund! Thanks for all the info. you've provided me and others on this forum. Much appreciated. You're owed many beverages of your choice.

Hi all. I finally received AIP very early Friday morning. The following morning I logged in to my sponsor's ECAS and saw that DM had been made for both. Sponsor has yet to receive SA notification, but we're assuming this is just a classic example of IRCC skipping steps. So happy this process is...

This refers to the OWP application, not the PR application. Did you pay the full $255 for the OWP? It's $100 for OWP holder fee and $155 for work permit fee.

Not sure if I'm missing something, but... there are no restrictions for what you're describing.

I would be shocked if CBSA came after you, but I honestly am not too familiar with this type of situation here. Perhaps someone more familiar with this can give you more peace of mind than I'm capable of.

Does it say that on your GCKey? I see why he's asking... That additional line doesn't appear on mine either! (But I wouldn't be shocked if they did ask me for more docs later.)

1. Yes, the OWP gives one status. 2. If visitor status expiration date comes and goes while an OWP application is processed (meaning it hasn't been returned, awaiting decision), the applicant will go on implied status. If the OWP is approved, no worries. If the OWP is not approved (rare) and...
