I have received an ITA on an EE profile created while living in the UAE, using an authorized representative. Now, even before the visa is stamped, I might be moving to Canada to study as I have received a scholarship from a top tier university there. I know I can proceed to apply for a study permit under dual intent.

My question is this: What happens once the Visa Office in UAE issues a request for my passport to approve my EE case? If I am already in Canada by the time the VO approves my file, can my case be transferred to Canada?

Yep, you have an opportunity to email and let them know.

Send a CSE with the new address.

You can use the same medical.

Does that mean it's normal to move to another country before getting a PPR, then only when you get a PPR you let them know of the change of address? If that's possible, will they normally carry on and ask for your passport and send it back to wherever you live in the new country (Canada in your case)?

I don't understand your question. I have been admitted to university in Canada and I will proceed for university when term begins, on a study permit, without waiting for the PPR.

My case is similar (but not equivalent). I will most likely move from US to Europe after I file my e-APR. So all that would be required is a simple CSE?

I am in the same boat, well the other way around. I will be moving to US after I file my eAPR in Europe. I would like to know if I can use the CSE to change my address.

I plan on moving to US for a fellowship. It is for a year or so. I am hoping I can continue my FSW process during that time and then move to Canada.
