Congrats Gemauru, lets keep the ball rolling :)


Thank you Ryan!!! Is good to see they're catching up. We might see a change on processing times... Will be nice to go back to the "7 to 8" months....

I'll keep you posted!!!
 
quick question guys....my "Permanent Residence Application Status" on the main page changed to "Decision Made" today even though in the details section, it still says it's approved for 1st stage. Does it mean that they have completed the second stage or is it just delayed change after the first stage approval?

Thanks for your help.

For those, who need to apply Open Work Permit after getting First Stage Approval.


I got my Approval letter on Feb. 17, 2012. I applied the work permit online on the same day.
And I got it today (Feb 27, 2012) Issue date: Feb, 23. Exp. Date is same as the exp. date of my passport.

So immigration guys can work very quick, if it is needed (10 days (5 business days) instead of 16 days...)
My study permit will be exp tomorrow :D

Ps: I did my medicals Dec 22, 2010. So it is exp. No need to do it again, if they do not ask to do!!!


Hi Hakri. I sent my PR application also without OWP application. What do you suggest? Should I:
1. Send it now before AIP or
2. APply online after AIP just like what you did

One more question:
1. Is online OWP application not difficult?
2. What papers did you submit? I understand that if you get an AIP, you dont need any LMO, job offer, etc. So what specific papers did you submit in your case?
3. How did they send you the OWP? via mail or did you print it online?

Many thanks.

"We received your application for permanent residence on March 29, 2011.

We started processing your application on April 18, 2011. "

For those who have had to re-do the medical (if there are any) how long did it take for it to attach to your file?

I've gotten AIP and I had to re-do my medicals. I already sent in my police report when my AIP arrived. On Feb 2nd I got a letter telling me I had to re-do my medicals. On Feb 24th I got them re-done. So anxious. I think I'll be landing finally then!

hey crazyLucy how expired was your medical? If you don't mind me asking :-).

but do you have "decision made" on the main e-cas page? I got my AIP over 10 days ago but the status remained "In Process" until this morning when it changed to "Decision Made". So I am just wondering if this means anything or is it just them updating to reflect AIP?

Thanks,

Ok! Just got off the phone to CIC.. Nice lady on the phone.. Went thru the normal question to verify who you say you are. Then she asked me for my expiry date on work visa. I said work visa I dont have one I'm on visitors visa. She put me on hold then came back and said work visa has been issued was posted this week along with letter of AIP. Said everything is going well.
