@Chiyakam what is the best way to look for a job while you are outside Canada? Do they encourage Skype interviews?
Yeah, some of them do. I'm on the lookout and will post more information once I have gone through that.

Thanks mate. Yeah - it seems that it's on the way to me. Since I'm out of Delhi until Sunday - I'll have to ask Blue Dart guys to attempt delivery on Monday.

Yes, few employers do encourage Skype/telephonic interviews (personal experience), but if you do it without visa then final answer would mostly be- we are looking for someone to join with in 3 months if not ASAP and total time for arranging work visa for you would be around 6+ months so your profile cant be taken forward.

Thank you for your reply r_mittal86. Good luck with your job hunt! :)

You may also try downloading the FONGO app.
It gives you a local canadian number and operates on data/wifi.
 
By the blessing of the Almighty, my Application got approved and closed. Does this mean my passport has been stamped and is on the way back home? How long can it take to get my passports back now?

Indeed this means the passport is stamped and is on way back, time would depend on the courier service (if opted) if not Monday then by Tuesday you should have your COPR.

Good morning folks!! I'm happy to announce my PPR :):):):):):)post a wait of 7 months, 1 week and 6 days!! My application was approved on 6th April and as per CIC RFV was sent then only, however it wasn't received either by me or by my lawyer. Thanks to this forum and specially adin.blr, who posted his details here and I could follow the same steps to snatch my PPR from CIC :P!!

To my fellow waitlisters - Please get in touch with CIC if you haven't done already, I wish you also announce the news soon and that we celebrate together in Canada! Cheers!!

Congrats chiyakam!!!
 
Guys, I got our COPRs!!! It took us a total of 28 days to change the VO from London to Moscow and get the COPRs. Any of you guys experienced photos not glued properly to COPR? One of my daughter's photo was detached from the COPR right when I opened the envelope. I guess I can simply re-glue it with a better glue, there are no stamps or anything...

I wish all the best to everybody else still waiting from October group here.

Hi,

Do you mean there's no Visa stamp in the passport ??
 
Got off the phone after talking to the agent. Decision on my file was made on 1st June. Next step is to wait for visa office to get in touch with me. (Dint share the decision with me due to confidentiality)
