Dear seniors,

We have landed in April'16 and our visa expired on 7th oct 2016. My spouse needed to go back to home without PR card. We have not received our PR card yet. Our kids got it. My concern is will my spouse be able to enter canada with travel document. Will CIC issue travel document as my spouse's visa already expired?

Thanks .

Hi,

I am bit confused that why you are getting late to receive your PR card as you landed there on April'16. You are there more than 6 months time whereas PR card need to issue to your address with 41~45 day now.

However, for your question answer is your spouse can't travel to Canada without PR card if she exit without PR card. Either you need to send your spouse PR card by courier once you receive it in CA address.

COPR and visa issued for one time travel either it is valid or not.

Cheers!

So be patient and you are on to get your PPR soon.

I've not received a PF mail in particular upon raised a case specific en-query he replied that i failed to disclose that i have used a representative that is why my case is taking longer time to process. Thats it.

Hello,

Generally you may enter Canada at any point of entry when you have a Permanent Resident Visa. But if you are entering Canada for the first time, in the province of Quebec ( landing process) You must have a valid Quebec Certificate of Selection (CSQ) or prepare to document your clear intention to reside in different province.

Also, do some research on the prices of the domestic flights in Canada. Prices are not cheap in many cases, so if you plan you budget make sure you consider the price of your entire trip.

Keep in mind that the Government of Canada funds pre-arrival programs to help people like you with this type of information and much more. NextStopCanada.ca is one of them.

Best of luck and Welcome to Canada!

Thanks for the helpful advice, but I confess that after posting the query, my found the answer in the last page of the 4 page letter from CIC that came with my passport and COPR. There it clearly states that " You can present your permanent resident visa upon arrival from abroad at any Canadian border crossing or international airport. Please allow a few fours before any connecting flight or other travel to your final destination, as the immigration procedures are done at your initial place of arrival in Canada."

I hope my ticket to Ottawa from Montreal will prove my clear intention to live outside Quebec...and also thanks for referring to the YMCA pre arrival settlement site, I haven't used it before but it looks helpful.

Do you mind me asking how much the domestic flights are costing you? If it's not covered with your whole travel plan, each checked-in luggage may cost you $30.

FYI, it's only 2 hour drive from Montreal to Ottawa, so if you know someone from Ottawa, they should be able to pick you up.
Alternately, if you buy in advance,
- Train fare would be around $40/adult
- Bus fare would be around $20/adult

Hi,

Here some points would help you to understand about it.

Background Check by Visa Office


There are total 9 factors that can cause an applicant inadmissible to Canada during background check.

1. Criminality (have a criminal record in any country)
2. Organized Criminality (Org Crime in GCMS Note)
3. Security (failed background checks)
4. Human and International Rights Violation (HIRV in GCMS Note)
5. Health (failed medical exam)
6. Financial Reasons (have less then the minimum settlement funds)
7. Misrepresentation (failed to be truthful during the application or omitted information)
8. Non-compliance with Act (failed to provide any requested information/documents the immigration officer requested or failed to attend a Personal Selection Interview)
9. Inadmissible Family Members (the above reasons for any family member indicated as a dependent on the application form)


If you met all of above points then no need to worry and need to wait to finish there ground work.

Best of luck.

Hey thanks, for the great advice ( hit the good button :-)), yes domestic flights are quite expensive. As an alternative option, I'm considering taking the bus, do you have any recommendation on any particular bus service? Thanks
 
Congrats !

Dear Forum Mate,

All most after one year later I am able to let you know that SVGO finally got our file to notice us for MR with RPRF fee, PCC and new Background form update on Friday (14-Oct).

I found many of our old forum friend already settle down in Canada with their great life.
But who are still waiting and surviving in this race, definitely will get good news as we got ours.

After our office visit by Canadian High Commission Dhaka office on mid Feb'16 we were long waited to get MR and we thought there was no hope and by this time we planned to settle in USA and our flight is by this end NOV.

But now we need to change our flight itinerary for this news.

We still seeking your prayer to get reach the destination.

Cheers!

If you're considering bus, the only option you have is Greyhound which will cost you only ~$50 for 2 adults & 1 child (2-11 years). This is a web only price which you have to buy online (credit card) in advance and is also non-refundable. There are usually 5~6 schedules per day. Last time I hopped on to a bus was years back, so don't exactly know how many luggage you can take free. If it's 2 small/medium per person; then you're fine. But if you have tons of large suitcases; you may have to pay extra or the driver may not allow that many if it doesn't leave any room for others.

Here are the links:
- Montreal Trudeau Airport Ground Transportation
- Greyhound Coach/Bus
