Anna and I have a long wait a head of us. We likely won't be finished until well into 2013. Anna's pregnancy delays the medical until late July, then who knows. So, we may be the last of the 2010 group.
I sent in my UK police certificate because I spent about a year there. I'm from the US. When I got my AIP, they didnt ask me for a Canadian police clearance. Is this abnormal?Mark_Anna said:Ocean_end.....................I am from June 2010 but only me & Theresa_Lynn left here all other May..June..July 2010 got their PR. I don't know why this back ground check took too much time & why they need back ground check when we already gave them police clearance from canada & native country?!
Yeah crazylcky,its pretty normal.....they will not ask you for Canadian police clearance that is why they do the background check on all applicant so with your uk police certificate and a FBI clearance you are good to go.....keep your finger cross for the second stage....good luck.CrazyLucy said:I sent in my UK police certificate because I spent about a year there.

Well I turned 18 in the UK but I am a US citizen. So I didnt have to do a FBI clearance.tozo said:Yeah crazylcky,its pretty normal.....they will not ask you for Canadian police clearance that is why they do the background check on all applicant so with your uk police certificate and a FBI clearance you are good to go.....keep your finger cross for the second stage....good luck.
anyone know if there were anyone left from 2009 still waiting? well I guess I'm the earliest left... submitted my app in April 2010, started processing in June, got AIP Dec and waiting ever since... guess we are all waiting for background checks while some other people two stages at once... how can someones multiple background checks be done in a day and ours take a year!??1Mark_Anna said:Ocean_end.....................I am from June 2010 but only me & Theresa_Lynn left here all other May..June..July 2010 got their PR.

how can they slow down after June 2010 when half the people that submitted in 2011 already got their AIP and DM?Mark_Anna said:Baba.....wow for you it's really a long time of 2 years now. In our cases we
Mark_Anna, Theresa_Lynn, CEC, GiGi, Ocean_end & Mmwaann are waiting more than 18 months total.
They (Phone agent) also told me no update but hopefully very soon. I heard that after June 2010 they are extremly slowing down. Someone was telling me that before March 2012 they have to finish all 2010 pending files.
That depends ...Mark_Anna said:Because you applied for PR and while waiting you are still legal in canada but can't go outside of canada & re enter. Yes job is a peoblem in Toronto that's why I am planning to go back to Vancouver from where I came here 2 years ago, atleast my friends there can help me to find a job.
I received my work permit after I graduated before I was a internaitonal student so I did not have to wait for AIP to get the WP. My orignal passport expired Feb 1st, 2012, so my WP/health card all expires on the same day. Just got my passport renewed, so I guess I need to hand in my extension before it expires to keep implied status? Don't you need to be currently employeed in order to get a extension on a WP?annabruce said:That depends ...
If she received her open work permit as a consequence of AIP, then she must get the extension application in before the work permit expires.
If you submit an open work permit application together with a PR application, you are on implied status until AIP and open work permit is awarded. However, If after being awarded that same OWP, you must continue to extend it before its expiry.
Actually, looking at her profile, she did receive her OWP as a consequence of AIP. She must extend it before it expires!
Ooooh what did the phone message say? That's really good news I hope u hear something.Mark_Anna said:Hi Inlanders 2010,
