Any idea about the PPC time limit at the VO stage??
PCC is valid for 1 year from the date issued.

u can submmit it along with ur app. to CIO or later at VO.

But if ur submitting it with app at CIO then it should have been issued no more than three months before you submit your application

And if VO think that they may not be able to process ur app. i.e., issue Visa before the PCC expires, then they wil request for fresh PCC.

I read the intsruction guide but it only mentions about the time limit at CIO stage. I tried to look up the relevant info at the VO stage but couldn't find anything.

I have May'11 issued PCCs but as I wasn't sure about the time limit at the VO stage (assuming the same 3 months) I applied for fresh PCCs just to be on the safer side. Looks like it wasn't needed.

I am also interested in this. I also need to know at what stage can we open the account. Do we need to have the Visa PR in place or can we do that in anticipation of the PR? I am worried about the ongoing fall in the value of the Euro against the $. I hope all our PoSF would not have been reduced to nothing by the time we are ready to head to Canada.

There's also a topic about this on a dutch forum I'm posting on, but knowing no one can read dutch I wil try to translate what I've read...

To open an account WITH PR try this link:http://www.rbc.com/canada/banking-packages/index.html

You can also open an account without PR, but you have to open it in person in Canada.
(That's what would like to do in my 2 week vacation over there)
I know you must have enough money to put into the account to get a CC.( I don't know the exact ammount)
You need that CC to build up your credit history to get a morgage or loan.
Not every bank will give you a CC, I know from other people that TD bank, CIBC, Capital One or Scotia Bank are willing to give non immigrants a CC.
It all depends on you credit history in your home country and if you can try to get a translated letter of recommendation from your bank you'll be fine...

This is what I read on a dutch forum, so please don't mind me if it will be different for other countries!

Kind regards,
Louise!

======BREAKING NEWS FROM LONDON VO.========

Wife's X-ray is not found!!!!!!!

In July, London VO lost my baby's applicationl and I have to resend another set of application to them. They later found it and sent the bank draft to me about 2 weeks ago.
I got an email from them today:

Dear Sir/Madam,

Please be advised that we have checked with our medical section and they have confirmed that the tracking number you have provided also contains the medical for the new baby and not the xray for your spouse. Could you please confirm that information with your Designated Medical Practitioner and give us the tracking number for your spouse's xray?

Sincerely,
XXX

I have just called the clinic and I was told to call back as the person in charge is in a meeting.

Sorry to learn of this delay. Hope it gets resolved soon. With a tracking number it then comes down to whether or not it reached CIC. The DMP should have checked that the results got to CHC.

Hope the results turn up!

Great info Louise, thanks for this. I will definitely explore the possibilities, if it is indeed possible to open the a/c prior to getting the PR. I also didn't realize it was possible for a Canadian bank to issue CCs to customers without SIN numbers, but it would be worth investigating. At the rate London VO is going, It is very likely I visit Canada again before they finalize our PR application. Need to get my friends and colleagues to do some background enquiries for me.

Seriously getting worried about Euro's decline...

Thanks all the same Louise

I gave them the tracking number and it was signed for by someone in London VO.
What they are saying is that the parcel only contains baby's medical and that wife's X-ray was not included.

Not again Shalom. WTH, is going on with you guys' medicals? First they lost your baby's, now your wife's. Who is messing things up your DMP or the VO? This is getting quite annoying.

I just spoke with the clinic and they are insisting that both X-ray and baby's medical were sent in the same envelop.
They have promised to contact London VO tomorrow and get back to me.
