Dear Applicants name,

The processing of your application for permanent residence in Canada is almost complete. You must complete the following steps within 30 days in order for our office to issue your Confirmation of Permanent Residence and if applicable, permanent residence visa. If for any reason you are not able to meet this deadline, please inform us immediately by email and include the details of your situation.

STEP 1: CHANGES IN YOUR APPLICATION

Has your family composition or personal circumstances changed? Changes include:

· Marriage or common-law union, divorce, annulment, legal separation or death of the sponsor, principal applicant or any accompanying family member;
· Birth or adoption of a child, including grandchildren born to dependent children;
· You or any of your family members being charged or convicted of a criminal offence.

If any of these conditions apply, you are required to inform our office immediately. If available, please include in your email the evidence that supports the change and send it to CPC-CTD-Ottawa @ cic.gc.ca

STEP 2: PASSPORTS AND PHOTOS
Please note that Confirmations of Permanent Residence and visas cannot be issued to holders of Diplomatic, Official or Military passports. You must have an ordinary passport.

2. A PHOTOCOPY of your passport(s)

· One photocopy for you and one for each accompanying family member.
· Photo page only & amendment pages, if any
· Passports must be valid for at least 6 months

DO NOT SEND YOUR ORIGINAL PASSPORT(S)
3. Two (2) photos for each accompanying family member
See our specifications at www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/guides/pdf/5445EB-e.pdf

*Please refer to the instructions in the table below.

Incorrect mailing addresses could result in your passport(s) being lost. Our office accepts no responsibility for documents lost in the mail.

2. Submit all documents by mail in a single package:

Hey guys! anyone knows anything about the AAIT approval letter. My spouse applied to Alberta Apprenticeship and Industry Training from here in Jamaica and have gotten his approval letter to work as a Millwright in Alberta. Trying to get a job offer but nothing up to now. I suspect it is easier to get through Express Entry if you are already on a work permit. Are all you guys applying from there in Canada?

Does he have a certificate of qualification?

Most of us in this thread are in Canada. I'm in Jamaica and I submitted my passport to the Canadian High Commission yesterday.

I didn't see anywhere that asked for date of birth on the pic. What it asked for was the date the picture was taken and the photographer's info.

The PR card photo specs asks for DOB, not the PPR photo specs.
