Hi members,

I have nominated by manitoba. I want to ask two questions regarding preparation of application to cic
1- do I need to notarize letter of approval from Manitoba by my local notary public?
2- do I arrange my application whether according to checklist or by person e.g. principal applicant and each dependent?
3- do I include copies of educational and professional documents, although not asked by cic.....not mentioned anywhere and in check list too.

Thanks..... waiting for response
1. No need to notarize nomination certificate. Just print it out and submit with the application to cic. They can check the authenticity and validity via the nomination certificate number.
2. Arrange according to checklist.
3. NO. Only submit documents listed in the checklist

I am also a MPNP nominee

The answer to first question is:

1. No
2. I arranged according to the checklist. For example, travel documents of all applicants, educational history of all applicants etc.
3. The opinion can vary, however, I had included the in my application, although it was not asked specifically.

Hope this helps.
 
Someone created an online petition complaining about how long it takes inland applicants to be issued a PR status. Anyone know how far with the signatures collected?
 
Silly mistake. That time I didn't know this rule.. my paper app delivered at Sydney on 24 june and my ielts expired on 21 june. Although I have sufficient time time to send application after getting nomination on 1 June.

I have applied for June 12 SINP OID and my ielts is going to expire on 24th Oct 2017. It means if I nominated, my application to CIC- Sydney must be delivered on or before 24th Oct 2017, otherwise I have to give new IELTS exam. Pl correct me if I am Wrong.

Yes. Many January - February SINP guys still waiting for Nomination. So without thinking of any, take the IELTS again.
 
Hi @klivon how is Manitoba, and so far can you share what your experiences have been like from point of entry till today?
Thanks
So sorry for the late response. I am just seeing this now.

Well landing was easy and smooth.
I flew into Winnipeg from Chicago O'hare (USA). So Winnipeg was my first port of entry into Canada.
The first Immigration officer was the same officer everybody (including visitors) will encounter. He asked if we were landing or just visiting. I told him we were landing. He asked if I'll be bringing in any other house hold item(s). He then directed me to another officer in a closed office
The 2nd officer requested for passport and the CoPR, asked if I have any other dependent not captured on the CoPR. Asked me to sign my initials when I said no. He spent some 20 minutes or more computing something on his workstation. Asked me to sign off and he gave me the copies of CoPC (without the passport photo). He then gave me a directory of where to apply for the social insurance number and the health card.
the 3rd officer was the custom person. Asked if i have monetary instrument totaling CAD10,000 or more. If I will be shipping in items and what the value of the item(s) will be. All this took between 35 to 45 minutes. Then they said WELCOME TO CANADA
Rested for 2 days before applying for the social insurance which I got within 30 minutes. I then traveled to Regina (Saskatchewan) and Calgary (Alberta) to visit and for site seeing. Came back to Winnipeg. Applied for the Health card online. Applied for a bank account as well. Now I'm back home to plan for the permanent movement.
