Hi, QuebecOkie. I'm not surprised that you received the letter to send your documents. But, I guess only applicants who will land in Montreal office are asked it. Maybe, I will be asked it in future. :P

I wish your photo for PR card is nice one! :D

Haha, thanks! The photos I did for my medical are AWFUL. It looks like a mugshot of a felon. We're hoping the base photo shop (husband is military) can do photos per the specifications in the CIC packet. That would make it easy to do them tomorrow after I get out of class and hubby gets off work. We're carpooling a lot these days, which I enjoy. :) Life is pretty good. Ready to get this landing thing over with, but just thrilled to be so far along in the process at this point!
 
would you say it is common that its been 3 weeks since I got an email from the Vegreville office saying that a decision had been made and that the vancouver office would contact me? thanks for your time!

Yes it is common to wait this long. You can be waiting up to 6-7 weeks before you hear anything from the Vancouver office. You can call CIC and asked them what's the lead time in getting a letter from Vancouver office. They usually will tell you.

Thanks for your reply!. Then, depending on the case I would be waiting for an interview? or is it possible to receive only the CORP without an interview?. How about sending them the passport or going to the border? thanks again! :)

Doesn't work that way with inland sponsorship. They will send you a snail mail letter to come in for your final interview with details on what to bring, including a valid passport. At the interview, they ask you some simple questions, and you sign the COPR document there. Then you become a landed PR. You won't need to leave Canada and re-enter to change status to PR.

Hi there,

I have some good news to everybody and a question for Screech too.. :) Finally CIC is moving now. My accompanying dependent received a document request yesterday through mail. They are asking her to re-do her medical and there was something on the letter that confused me a lot where I need Screech to enlighten me. They also requesting us to submit some forms which we already did and submitted along with our application.

To Screech, would you mind if I send you the letter on your inbox and pls tell me if I really need to send it again to them. Thank you in advance!

Congrats,Kabayan! I hope Manila will forward the info that CIC has been waiting to receive. On my end,I called CIC yesterday and the agent was useless.. she said they are still working on my background/security checks and waiting for Manila to forward the info with regards to my non-accompanying dependent. I am just confused bcoz my MP contacted CIC and Manila twice but CIC never mentioned that they are not done with my beackground/securtiy checks yet. They are only waiting for Manila.. I dont know if who was telling the truth now. I am tired of waiting and the worst is if couldnt get my pr before march 2014,I'll miss my daughter's graduation.she has been looking forward to it since we havent seen each other for almost 5 years now.:( :( :(
 
wow. still october. this is so frustrating and infuriating. i am daydreaming about working, never thought that would happen.
