Thank you so much @ Misscanada!

So from your reply I understand that you did tell them that you applied for PR?
What does AOR and AIP mean? I am very new at this, we never considered moving from my country until 2 months ago and I am fairly lost.
What are the documents that they might ask me for?

Thanks again @ Darwinwap!
Since my relationship can be proved over and over, I am hoping not to need and interview. In case I apply from outside Canada, but am staying with our kids in Canada, where will I be required to do my medical exams?

Thanks everyone for your fast answers! wish I had found this forum earlier!!!
Sorry for the late reply. Had some family health issues but now they are better.
I did said that I was applying for PR and I showed them first time the AOR, the email or letter that CiC send you that they had received your application. And the other times AIP, the email or letter that CIC sends you that the sponsor meets the requirements to apply for PR.
I did not need to include them in my application since there are already Canadian Citizens.

Best of luck,

@ VanSquirrel - thanks for the helpful signature. It is awesome to be able to get answers.

@ MissCanada - in the 5 times you went back to Canada did the immigration officers ask you about your application for PR? Did you tell them before they asked? or did you just got in as a visitor?

You are all super generous, as I realize I should be in a 2013 forum thread and not here, since we will apply next month only.

Wish you all the best of luck.

Hi, usually it's their first question.
Where do you live? In Toronto.
What is your status in Canada? I am applying for my PR.
Do you any documents? Than the first time only had the email from CIC stating that they had received my application. The other times I already had AIP, the email that says that you meet the requirements to apply for PR.
All this time had my multiple entry visitor visa.

Also didn't do medical for the kids since they are Canadian Citizens and didn't need to be sponsor.

Hope that helps.

Hi Sunsun,

No you can apply OHIP after AIP in ontario. I had applied in december and received today..
Actually they will give you OHIP coverage starting on 3 months after the date you received AIP.

You are welcome. Don't hesitate to ask if you have any doubts.

In case you are applying for OWP (Open Work Permit) send it together with your application for PR. Since they usually give 6 months stay with the visitor visa and the process takes longer than that.
I didn't with mine so I could only apply for after AIP and it takes around 60 days more.

Take care and all the best.

So out of disbelief my friend called back CIC and they told him yes he's been approved to immigrate to Canada and the last step is for his landing interview to be held in Etobicoke. The agent told him there's like a 4-6 week waiting period for that office. His entire application was done in just 5 months

Wow!-5 months?it just goes to show it can be done in the shortest amount of time possible!!!-Then why oh why do they make people wait for so long even when their case is so straight forward?-Here is to hoping that we all get some progress on ours soon!!!!!

Thanks Rusty53, what does that mean 38 days to landing? Is that from now or the letter from Scarborough advising of my appointment? Also, do you or anybody else know what docs they ask for? Just passport I assume?

I couldn't believe it when I got the email, an amazing way to start the day :)

Argh. So our medical results will expire about now. We're only 1.5 months after AIP. Will they automatically give us a 3 month extension, or should we just redo them?
