I've been a long time silent spectator of this website. Thanks everyone for sharing their info. Here is my application timeline. I'm CEC inland with no dependents. I hope this helps. April 1 - AOR May 3 - Medicals completed and biometrics linked to CIC account May 23 - Background...

Hi Mackenzie, I am wondering if you figured out a way around providing/not providing proof of funds. I am also a postdoc at Canadian University, will be completing 2 years soon, but still have another year. Still, I cannot use any job offer. I also do not have enough funds of 13.000$ to show...

My application at cgi vancouver, so I sent email to the following two addresses! Good luck ppt.vancouver@mea.gov.in, cons.vancouver@mea.gov.in

Today, I sent email like around 9 AM saying that my PCC is clear and available for issuance, and asked them to print. Luckily, now, my application status shows that it has been printed. You guys can do the same too!

In a similar boat! Applied for PCC for myself on Dec 20th. On Jan 4, 2022, my status also updated to "Police Verification report is clear and PCC is available for issuance". No update after that. I would probably call CGI Vancouver if I don't see any update the next week.

Hi everyone, I am applying for PR. I am in the pool, mostly eligible for CEC. So, I thought of gathering documents if I get ITA. I have a query on getting pcc from India. I live in Vancouver, so I would be requesting pcc from bls nearby. My query concerns the address of my parents. It’s just...

Ya, this is like 4 times the usual price. I used to go to and from YVR to HYD with around 1300 CAD when there wasn't any pandemic.

I just checked this route via Abu Dhabi to Toronto. Naively speaking, isn't the ticket price insanely high, like 3-4 times the usual price? Perhaps that's expected cause of the covid.

I don't know mate! I stopped searching for options now. I am only going to travel once the travel ban is lifted.

Thanks a lot mate! I have seen similar alternate route videos too! Most of them are expensive (4-5 times the usual price accounting for the expensive tickets with full refund that needs to be booked & the occasional stay at hotel) which I cannot afford. I plan to wait for this travel ban to be...

Nope, UK isn't really an option. Although, they changed the status of Indian country to Amber list from the red list, they are still allowing travelers from India to go through airside, which means that they can't avail of the COVID testing in the airport, without which you can't really get on...

Ya, apparently most countries denied travelers from India to transit through them. It is also made difficult cause Canada wants a negative covid test result from this third country that is different from India and Canada. There are only few risky options mentioned in a different thread to go to...

Oh damn! Why does the flight booking websites miss this kind of important information. Thanks for the info!

Lol. I don't have any US visa. I am just transiting through US. I just realize that US also banned travel from India if I stayed in India for more than 14 days. Thanks for the reply though.

Hello everyone, I am currently in Canada on a work-permit + visa that expires on September 14, 2021. I do have a offer letter for the same job asking me to apply for the extension of the work-permit but I delayed doing it. I have a family emergency in India, my father is sick, so I need to...

Thanks man. I got the shipping label in email today. So, that's fine. Please let me know once you get your passport with visa stamp back.

I wrote generic reasons as my work is not related to covid. I will be a Postdoc in Canada. So, the reasons are like guiding PhD students, how Postdoc research is important to my university and hence to Canada etc. I also write in the letter that my university has 14-day quarantine plan and...

Hey, what exactly should I expect for shipping labels? Does someone from FedEx bring these labels? Or do VFS email me these shipping labels? Right now, I only got an email from FedEx showing the tracking number and the shipping label is created. But haven’t received shipping label.

I satisfy the requirements given in the following website, that’s why I fall in GSS category https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/work-canada/hire-temporary-foreign/global-skills-strategy/eligibility.html

Ya, I also got my work-permit accepted, biometric validity letter and passport request yesterday. The following is my timeline Application submitted (GSS): June 22, 2020 Biometrics given: July 21, 2020 (in USA) Request to expedite processing: August 24 and I sent another request on September...
