To all members and @stirredo @wonderbly @dankboi @ElvisRamaj @scylla.

I posted a few days ago regarding my medical situation. I had an idea and wanted your input. Quick recap. Did upfront two months ago. no reply to webforms and medical not processed. Received request from IRCC for new medicals. Went to clinic and they said they can't link medicals. also declined to do new medicals until current ones are valid.

Now I have also received adr for pcc and schedule A. Do you think if it would be a good idea to take advantage of this opportunity and also add my upfront medicals with pcc and add an LOE explaining why I am doing that?

I will have all my documents ready by tomorrow and planning to do that. If you guys think it is a bad idea please let me know now. Thankyou!
I don't think its a good idea to add you upfront medicals witht he PCC.

Shouldn't the IRCC send you an IMEI that the clinic can link the new medicals ?

I just finished my remeds. Do I need to upload anything to my portal or will the medical provider do it? This is not upfront. It's a medical remed that ircc asked for

If the deadline is far away you will be fine. But if the deadline is near, it won't hurt to send the e-medical sheet to IRCC through webform and let them know that you are done with your part of the deal.

Hi everyone
Do you know why IRCC has stopped processing 2019 applications?
They kept sending PPR to Dec and Nov 2020 and seem to have reached to Jan 2021 now!!!

@ElvisRamaj They just sent the IME number two weeks back and I have sent upfront medical sheets through webform at that time and also two months ago. I have received no reply and its been two months but no one has processed medicals. I am planning to attach upfronts with medical to bypass this whole process. My thinking is at least this way someone who is looking at my documents will look at them and might process them with my adr.

@stirredo Thank you for your reply. I know you must be busy planning for your next steps. deadline is still 20 days away but my aor is July 2020 and I am so done with the process. IRCC has not replied to my webforms sent 2 months ago to process upfronts. I am thinking this way it will directly go to my VO and an officer will see my upfronts and might decide to process them asap rather than waiting in the medical queue

@wonderbly thank you so much for your reply. You have been kind enough to reply to my posts before too

I have a question,
Is it possible that a tie-breaker will be applied for draw.
Also how good a 479 score.
Thank you

I am coming to your province :D

I am planning to land in 4-5 months so the plans could change but for now, Saskatoon is the plan.




My stress of whether or not I will get the PR has been replaced by "Holy shit. It's actually happening. I have so many things to plan and to do!"

But the stress of moving/planning is nowhere near the stress of the PR wait. I can't wait to finally land and get that anti-climax feeling that you are talking about. Here's hoping the situation at Service Canada will be resolved by the time I land. I read their reviews on Google and it doesn't seem promising though.

Although nothing is set in concrete, I have been looking into working as an IT contractor in Canada. It seems like something that will suit my lifestyle more.

I spent all day yesterday finding the details of sending the passport for stamping. It still feels a little surreal.

I have been told the stress will last for a year even after moving. Hopefully, after that things will fall into place.
Snow could be bad but I have and have been surviving harsh winters for the last 6 years. Snow could get you depressed if you are new to living in those conditions. Just keep yourself engaged with something. Mingle with local community. If you are coming as a couple, definitely make more friends.
On getting a job in IT, reach out to VanHack, Randstad, and many other IT recruiters in Canada and let them know you have a PR. Don't fall into the hands of desi consultancy because they will ruin your life.

You will do great. Have fun. Welcome to North America-The land of dreamers.

This is the exact scenario I want to avoid.

Is he working as a contractor too?

I have been told to register a business in my name and find work that way. I have also been told to get a high-level AWS certification that should help to find work over there, which isn't easy but worth it in my field.
They are all about certifications here so definitely do as many as you can (relevant ones of course). AWS and TOGAF are high on the list. He is not a contractor, though we are also looking into the option of registering our own business as well (that's what we've done for the past 15 years or so as IT consultants) but just waiting to understand the terrain first especially the things like tax implications etc...

It's my turn guys.

Finally :)


My almost 2 years of agony is over.

Thank you to each and every one of you who has been part of this thread, especially during the lull period where there was no "ray of hope". I loved waking up and checking this thread for the discussions.

@tapperb @Hokage @Rkb94 @ImpatientAlligator @dankboi @PRANIT01 @RSub @wonderbly @ImpatientKangaroo @GandiBaat @dxdroid (yes, you too) @Pasha1 @OneStepAtATime @AbsoluteZero (ty for your advice for the medicals) @Vidnomenon @WPGBound


.....I am probably forgetting quite a few names but thank you to everyone who was part of this journey.

Do join the Whatsapp and Telegram FSW Worldwide groups in my signature if you'd like to keep in touch.



You were right, mate <3
Congrats! Feels like I just watched you step through a portal. Hope to see you on the other side.

Yes, your letters must be recent if you are still working with the employer.
No currently I work as self employed, so do you think there is no need to refresh my previous job reference letter( full time 3 years)? And about my current job should I explain what am I doing now, because I will not claim points for this job.
