As per new clarifications, if you are stuck outside Canada and can't get back to work, you're eligible for CERB. Please go to Canada.ca.

And if I am paying rent, bills, car insurance, tenant insurance in Canada for past three months, I am sure it counts as residing.

In Feb. My employer told me he would be temporarily laying me off since business is suspended when I called him in march. I called the CERB help line and lady couldn't help me but did make a comment that it says residing in Canada not physically present. I have to call CRA helpline and wait...

I am stuck abroad due to suspension of flights and therefore lost my income. However, still paying rent and bills on my apartment. I did lose my income due to Covid. My flight was cancelled four times and since I am a PR I couldn't get a seat on repatriation flight. I hope I am eligible even...

We will probably be flag poling through Regway border next week. My wife doesn't have US visa but I do and have entered US through same border. Will they create any issue ? Have any of you flag poled with the US visa ?

Yup

I had called a 6 weeks ago and it was recommended pass then. Yesterday, she said it's all passed.

I got the ghost update in my application yesterday so I called. I guess all assessments passed yesterday.

AOR Nov 05, 2019. I called IRCC yesterday and was told that all assessments are done and passed. When can I expect PPR ? Have there been cases where they delay PPR for months after passing everything ?

Called IRCC and was told eligibility is still under review and recommended pass. I guess that means initial review of eligibility is done and has been passed. Any cases where it went to RR from this recommended pass ? My AOR dste is Nov 6th

ITA: Oct 30 AOR: Nov 6th GU: Nov 29 (BG check status change) MEP: Dec 04

My AOR date is Nov 6. I got first ghost update on Nov 29 and BG changed to "App in progress...."; however, I haven't got MEP yet. It still says "Do not need medical". Usually you get MEP before BG change.

Nope!!! Just submit masters degree, transcript and letter of completion

You can study as long as you have a VALID study permit. Having the PGWP does not render your study permit invalid. I called the IRCC and confirmed it with an agent. You can exercise both permits at the same time.

In my opinion, as long as you are a fulltime student, your work experience won't count. During submitting the profile, you are explicitly asked if you were a fulltime student during the work experience you mention. You would have to answer yes and then that work experience won't count. So...

Border agent handed me back my study permit after issuing me PGWP saying that "since your study permit is valid is for 1 more year, I am giving it back to you". He would have kept it if it was not valid anymore.

I know of a situation where a spouse of an international student held a open work permit and applied for study permit. She was asked to surrender the open work permit to get the study permit. Unless you are asked to surrender the permit, you can exercise it

Oh well!! I don't know what to say then. My friend spoke with an IRCC agent and was told the same thing that as long as you have both valid permits, you can excercise them both.

Why would an IRCC agent give me wrong information ? And where did you get your information? From an immigration lawyer or a border agent or VO ?
