Inland Application 2011

[Valhalla]

Hello guys, hope you all are doing great.

i just have one question for those who are applying in canada that were born in mexico or have been in mexico for more than 6 months and have to provide police certificates from such country...

for what it says on cic web page under the police certificates, it states that I have to provide both FEDERAL POLICE CERTIFICATES and STATE POLICE CERTIFICATES which is a pain in the butt because i have to send two sets of fingerprints and 6 pictures front and right profile to mexico police offices in order to get the FEDERAL one and someone of my family has to travel to the capital of the state where i was born and get the STATE one, and then send it to me so i can send it to CPC-V... i would like if any of you have any experience with this matter can give me some tips, options, advice, something, i will try to do my best as they give me 90 days to send this documents to vegreville.

yesterday we received 2 letters, dated april 11 2012, one for the sponsor saying that she meets the requirements as a sponsor and the other letter was for me saying that i have met the requirements to be sponsored and need to submit police certificates...
Now, before i start assuming thing and start asking people to update my timeline, and because i am not to sure (i feel like it is but still im gonna ask)

IS THIS APPROVAL IN PRINCIPLE?? ?? :

Congrats for your AIP!! did you apply for an open work permit?
so now you have to provide the requested documents within 90 days so they can finalize your application for PR(second stage approval).
Good luck!

Hi,

I have a scheduled interview in a few days at the Etobicoke office... Can anyone share their past experiences? Tips maybe?

This is an interview with no AIP.

Thanks!

hello everyone, ive been contacting my immigration consultant and she is bad on answering emails

im going to get lmo this week and im confused where to send the application for a work permit, im holding a visitors record now and i called cic and asked the agent, and she advice me to send the work permit application outside Canada, cause im holding a visitors record right now, but when i look at the cic site it says i can apply for a work permit inside canada which the application will be sent to vegreville once i have already applied for pr. Just really confused where to send it and if i sent it to buffalo they might ask for an interview which i cant leave Canada cause there's no guarantee i can re enter. hope to hear from u guys and will really appreciate an answer, and just wonndering how can my status update will be added in the chart? i sent my application nov 2011 to vegreville , its been 5 mos since me and my common applied and another 5 mos or more to hear from immgration and to get an open work permit if were a approved. just frustrated to get a job and luckily i found an employer who can give me an lmo.

thanks!!

I think you would have to apply for a temporary work permit at this point, because the work permit application you send to Vegreville will only be processed once you get AIP and is for an open work permit, as opposed to a closed job/employer specific permit.

I just renewed my closed permit a couple of weeks ago- I applied online using the "extending your stay in Canada" thingy. I have the impression you might be able to use that as well, because it looked to me like you can switch from worker to student to visitor and vice versa.

May I ask what field of work you are in? I'm curious because I have found it close to impossible to find an employer who is willing to go through the LMO process- I was passed over repeatedly for that reason. I'm currently working in an LMO exempt position.

If you got your LMO already you can apply online.. You need to make a MyCIC online account and CIC will ask you to upload your LMO and work permit documents online.. Check this below :

hi Deutschbug thanks for replying and yes im going to apply for a temporary work permit. and it means i can apply it within canada? cause 2 agents told me to pass the application to buffalo, but it is risky that i might go there for interview, i was in a health field when i first came here in canada (tfw) then tfw to visitors record and now found an employer and im going to work in a warehouse.

I guess CIC has updated the processing time for last week. The average processing time remains the same - April 30. Speed up please...

 

[cililoca]

Oh dear, when are they going to change the bloody date? They can't still be in April 30th!

first congratulations on your baby! i hope the joy overwhelms the pain of delivery and bills. i had my baby delivered before i got my PR. luckily i was in school and it was mandatory to buy health insurance ourselves for $900/year. and that covers all of my tests, doctor's visits, delivery and hospital stay. my baby was born the end of may, and the insurance ended in august, just in time for me to recover because i did go back to see the OB for a few times. i hope both of you and the baby are doing well now, my hospital charges $3400 a day just to let you know. and for anyone else in the similar situation, do buy private insurance when you are waiting for PR, because it costs under $2000 but if you are going to give birth, it will save you a LOT!

tzing, can u tell us what insurance service you were using that covered birth delivery? If it sounds like advertising to everyone, I hope you can PM me pls. I always think that private insurance companies won't cover baby birth cause it's kind of "controllable" hospitality, not accident.

This is interesting question. I applied more than 200 companies and 10 of them interviewed me. However, all of them kicked me out when they knew they had to give me LMO ;D
