Hey Sharrruu.. Another bouncer by cic here.
When i asked them for all the documents to add my spouse , I wasnt aware that i had to Tell my province abt me getting married and now they want me to provide an evidence that i have notified my province abt me getting married and that my spouse would be coming with me .
I have sent all the paperwork to the province , Would u know or anyone know how long it takes for the proinvce o send me another letter now?

I dont know anyone but you can ask around this thread.. Once you have notified the province then what is required? Another nomination certificate? I am unsure but you should give your provincial nominee program office a call and talk to them about it. Ask them what are the next steps that can be taken and an acknowledgement of you notifying this change.

Hi everybody,

I am a pnp secondary applicant while my husband is the main applicant. Does anyone know whether I am eligible to apply for open work permit as a "pnp applicant" or not? (My husband is not working right now so I can't apply depending on his job contract or employment confirmation letter).
Does your husband has work permit?

can we do our port of entry from any border?
I live in alberta but want to do my port of entry in Ontario.
Since, i will be in Toronto visiting family

you can do that, but i recommend to have an address in alberta to show, to proof your final destination.

Maybe this is new in CPP-O. When I got married last year, I wrote to the Nominating office in my province. They ask me to send my spouse's info to cic(then at Buffalo) directly. I did not get another nominating certificate.

Then based on this permit you can apply for dependent of foreign student, i did it for my wife. Spouses of foreign students are eligible for work permits. To be sure speak with CIC representative, they will let you know if you are eligible.

Hope it helps

Thanks for bringing that up ..The same happened in my case..I got married right after getting my AOR. At that time i spoke to both the province and Buffalo. The province said we should send Buffalo a request to add her up .which i did and a few months later Buffalo sent me her medical request.They never asked us for a wife's PNP certificate or anything.This seems to be something new they have brought in to avoid processing applications for spouse/child of a PNP nominated applicant.. ::)

Arora, did you get married before getting your PNP certificate or after that?

Hi "tank-boy"
I have been waiting almost as much as you have been. Have you received your GCMS notes lately? what are the group name, eligibility, security and criminality keys? Has CIC told you why you are being delayed?

Hi Nima,
I talked to my MP, and she said that CIC is showing "extra love" for Iranians about their background check, so I guess you should be patient (and all other fellow Iranians).

I know some fellow Iranians that received a PPR just after 14 months of submitting their applications to Buffalo (QSW). Perhaps I have been picked for extra screening; But Neither CIC nor my MP has told me that I am begin delayed due to my BG checks. btw, welcome to the forum McMont!
 
Same email got today. Hopefully soon.

Thats the difference here.. she is looking for an open permit based on her husbands work permit. I dont think that quite works. You should clarify with CIC
 
How do you guys put your timeline and a picture below your name? I've been trying to find this option for a while.
