So I got my PR status today..
Interview was in Barrie. Walked into office. Was met by a pleasent woman she asked for Passport, Photographs, Sponsors ID and then $490 dollars.
After finishing paying and getting receipt for payment. We were both called into room. Another very pleasent woman introduced herself and then went thru a print out and got me to verify all the information was correct (Few adjustments had to be made passport No. had changed, and a typo error). Once the new printout was checked she got me to sign, she stamped passport and said congratulations your a Permanent Resident of Canada.
Copy of the paperwork(Confirmation of Permanent Residence) was given to me (The copy you are given you must keep even when you get your PR card. That paper is required when you apply for a pension. So keep it safe.) . Then she talked to us about what you can and cannot do as a PR.
After that we went to the first counter outside and got my SIN number.
It all took less then 35mins.
So for all those that are stressing about the Landing Interview its nothing to worry about.
Funny thing I wore a shirt & tie. 3 other couples doing the same thing were just in jeans t-shirts, shorts & t-shirts.
What have other people worn to the Landing Interview ? Its a question I never asked here.
Around 20 ppl are landing today at Barrie office.
