Dude, welcome to immigrant life. My grandmom died and i wasn't even able to make to her funeral but what can you do that is life and you gotta move forward.

Now my application has been completed and i will be soon granted PR under spousal sponsorship and the letter that immigration sent me said that the Windsor office will contact me and that i should be ready to pay the $490 landing fee since i haven't paid it yet. Now does anybody know how long does it take for the windsor office to contact me to set up the Interview?

so sorry to hear! any idea why?
she explained on other thread, i dun remember the title now. they applied as common law. but her bf before landing didnt mention her in his PR papers though they were living together but not in a relationship or smthing like that. but to immigration it looked like they were common law cause when he landed they lived already together for a year. since he didnt mention Raccoon in his papers as a common law, he was not confirmed as her sponsor in this application. (correct me if im wrong!)

Congrats srcc!! :) mine was received on feb 9. waiting for my turn..

Getaround can you please share your timeline....

As well I have a question re Canadian Police Clearance. My husband is inland with me and we submitted his police clearance from his home country. At the time we got the fingerprints done in Canada the gentleman taking the prints indicated that if we requested a Canadian Police Clearance it would be invalid by the time Immigration asked ofr it. We sent our inland application in Sept of 09 (so very close to our AIP stage)

Question: Is a Canadian Police Clearance necessary and if so should I request one now and forward it into them.

Please let me know.

I did find this on the website

How to obtain a police certificate
Canada
Do I need to provide a police certificate when applying for permanent residence?

Only in certain cases. The Canadian visa office will tell you if you need a Canadian criminal record check while your application is being processed.



Just wondering if anyone has first hand experience.

Thanks

I was not requested for the Canadian criminal record check; you will be advised if you need them or not.
