    Foreign Income and Visitor Status

    Yes I've been following the threads here and it would appear that it's taking longer than 6 months at present. I'm wondering am I eligible to renew my OHIP coverage once I've received my AoR based on the following: For applicants for permanent residence Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship...

    Foreign Income and Visitor Status

    OK yes I see now that I would not be considered a business visitor. I think that I could put forward a good argument that what I'm doing would be excluded from the definition of work as you have mentioned. It's work for an entity outside of Canada, renumeration is received from outside of...

    Are IRCC processing IEC applications in specific circumstances?

    When did you submit your application into the IEC pool? That sounds promising anyway that IRCC are actually processing the IEC applications, my concern was that the RO would submit the application and it could sit in the pool for months. I'm just looking at the dates for my first IEC visa and it...

    Are IRCC processing IEC applications in specific circumstances?

    I've just contacted GO to see if they can verify and I guess I could contact IRCC as well but I wouldn't be expecting a timely reply from them. Thanks for the reply.

    Are IRCC processing IEC applications in specific circumstances?

    It came from an organisation called Tamwood however they have GO also listed in their e-mail signature. It does sound a bit suspect alright and seems to contradicts everything online about the IRCC not processing IEC visas.

    Are IRCC processing IEC applications in specific circumstances?

    I know some RO's just charge the application fee plus a bit extra but I thought that some charge a couple of thousand as they are trying to sell an entire support package around the visa (accomodation on arrival, job support, etc.).

    Are IRCC processing IEC applications in specific circumstances?

    I'm Irish so I believe I should be able to obtain a second IEC visa via an RO. Yes it does state pretty clearly that applications are not being processed. I guess it could be an attempt at a money grab then by the RO.
