Guys I need your advise,

Since it will take me some time to get PCC I went ahead and sent cic a letter explaining why I should be exempted while waiting for PCC.

1) provided stamped page of passport when I entered canada, proving that I'm younger than 18 yrs, 6 months old when I entered.
2) provided study permit, study permit extension, PGWP to show I have status here for the past 6 yrs. should I include my transcript as well to proof that I'm herephysically?

I had several vacations outside of canada during my summer break, none of which lasted more than 2 months. Since cbsa doesn't stamp when exit, I don't know how to proof this. I included itineraries with my application though as I traveled with my now husband every time

What do you guys think? Is this enough??

I read about your dilemma on an earlier post. You SHOULD be exempted from needing a PCC, but they might just figure that since you were like 18 years 5 months and 2 1/2 weeks old when you entered it is close enough to 18 years and 6 months so they want you to get one.

Yeah my MP said I might or might not get exempted she said it really depends on how much the officer like my letter . Just frustrating I would have gotten it from the very beginning to save time but the instructions clearly said otherwise

Technically you are suppose to be exempted from PCC but due to you cutting it very close by a couple of weeks, it will be hard to see how it really go. Will the agent stick to the letter of the law down to the actual days or just figured what's the difference between 5.5 and 6 months, nawwww no difference and ask for your police check.

Hi everybody,
please advise when usually after DM you can begin to travel abroad?
And what does DAYS FROM DM TO LANDING mean? From Decision made till PR card arriving?
Are any ways to make the process faster?
May be some cool lawers exist or anything else? I really need to visit my country soon, and the process is unbelievably slow....

Assuming you applied inland, you are not suppose to leave Canada until you officially land as PR. DM only means Decision Made. If you leave Canada before landing and get denied back in, your application will still be cancelled.

Even if you managed to land as PR before your planned trip, you will not be able to fly back to Canada without your PR card, unless you are visa exempt. You would be required to apply for PRTD in your native country to be able to get back on the plane back to Canada.

Days to DM to Landing means how much days has passed since a DM was issued to the official landing date of becoming PR.

thank you a lot for reply. But what is Landing in this case mean? I thought Landing is when you receive your PR card!
Really it's unbelievable... So long and unfriendly to people process...
My family (Canadian husband and 3 Canadian children) is also suffering, having no vacations at the sea, and children can't see their grandparents

After your second phase is complete (they finish looking at all of the applicant's information) you'll then get a notice of DM (decision made). That pretty much just means that the reviewing of your application is complete, and then you have to wait for another notice of where you'll land at your local office. You're not officially "landed" until you go to that interview. After that, you are technically PR, then you just have to wait for your PR card.

Yeah very frustrating. Perhaps cic website should say "countries you reside in AROUND 6 months or more since 18" Oh well looking at the bright side it only takes my country 2 weeks to issue one. And it's not too expensive

Doesn't this seem fast? :

"We received your application for permanent residence on September 25, 2013.

We started processing your application on May 21, 2014.

Medical results have been received.

A decision has been made on your application. The office will contact you concerning this decision."

This includes a 6 week delay while we scrambled to get police clearance letters from two countries in Asia.
My husband (the applicant) is a US citizen.

Okay- I've tried to come up with a clear answer. "The office will contact you..." Will they phone, email or send a letter? How long can I expect to wait. My husband will be landing in Vancouver. Also, can he apply for a SIN once "landing" or does he have to wait for the PR card?

Congratulations!
