It took me about 20 days to get surrender certificate. Applied 10th August at BLS Vancouver. Was available for pickup on 31st August at a Purolator pickup store.

Hi, I spoke just now with a BLS call center agent using contact numbers on their website. The call center agent said - if you are working with Government organizations, you are not be eligible. But if you are working for private companies, you are eligible to apply. Also he mentioned that for...

Hi, I will be going to BLS Vancouver or Surrey. But I will call them on phone also try to ask them. I have sent an email to OCI helpdesk . Also I found below in official OCI 2021 circular - Page 15 point 33(4) - from their website FAQ section: "Children and spouse of foreign military/police...

Thank you forw.jane, I agree. But I think here - security and intelligence is national security and intelligence. Security guard for private corporations shouldn’t be a problem . Maybe the office might ask for my job details or so, because here in Canada lot of Indian students and PRs work as...

Hi, I have been working as a security guard for a private security company in Canada since about 2018. There is a question in OCI application as - "Whether the applicant (other than minor child/children) has worked / is working in Armed Forces/Para-military/Police/Security/Intelligence...

Hi, I have been working as a security guard for a private security company in Canada since about 2018. Then, for the the below question in OCI application, would I have to answer 'Yes' ? Whether the applicant (other than minor child/children) has worked / is working in Armed...

My Citizenship Oath - online via. Zoom was scheduled today - 20th April. I received email yesterday around 3 pm that it has been cancelled due to strike. and they will reschedule it later.

Mine too... has been stuck and spinning that way for more than 2 weeks now.

Yes! Very long time especially for an inland candidate. But I have read of candidates just like me who are still waiting even after 2 years. Sad. But mostly they are outland candidates. I wish the best for them.

Yes, definitely!

Yes, from what I am seeing everyone has got that update and email. Its generic to all. A facebook group Ask Kubeir - Express Entry, I have found very useful, and you may too. Lot of questions get raised and answered reliably there. Thanks!

There is no portal I know of. The email of the MP has to be found via internet or government's website. You can even call them and ask for email, guidance or assistance. But if you are an outland candidate, you might try to reach out to your embassy, or local MP, or something that way to see if...

No I could not find for Edmonton.

As written in above post, I believe no one has to wait for PR card now to avail any eligible Govt. facilities if the new Confirmation letter has been received. The letter is an official doc. and it clearly states so. It is only that staff in offices are not enough informed which is causing an...

That letter is not just ordinary letter. It is an official document. It is an " an official document issued by the Department of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada. ...... to prove that you are a permanent resident..... and to apply for government benefits ...... until you receive...

Yes for sure. I had patience because I had work permit, and so was earning. But the anxiety and stress was surely there due to uncertainty. Last year my WP extension almost took 6 months to come. I even took pvt. medical insurance for safety because MSP was not active in implied status. My local...

I am in Williams Lake, BC. MP is Todd D.

I will say make a phone call to IRCC call center first and see what they say. Then, sending a polite request to that email won't hurt I think.

Hi, my case was very similar to your. Landing for 27th Mar in Vancouver was cancelled. WP was expiring 5-Aug 2020. I did the same - sent web form on 8-May saying Wp is expiring and requested for telephonic interview. Received generic reply on 12-May saying to just wait. Received PR confirmation...
