Hi guys,

Just a little update, a few minutes ago I just spoke to someone from my MP's office and asked for more details about her conversation yesterday with someone from CPC-M (the actual Mississauga office, NOT the 1-888-242-2100 Montréal call centre).

Basically, the CIC rep looked for my package tracking number in their database, and she found my tracking number! Which means that my package IS at CPC-M, but for some odd reason the warehouse staff might've forgotten to bring my parcel to the appropriate processing agent...*sigh* annoying I know, but that's a relief!
And they're trying to find out why my application wasn't logged and entered into the system...

Hoping to hear from them soon...

*Fingers crossed*
I can't imagine what you are going through. Hope u hear some good news soon!

At least they:

- received it
- have it somewhere
- admit they made a boo-boo

Much better than having to re-do the whole thing! I'm really glad your MP could help you out!

Hi all,

I really need help..

I have submitted my application for PR under Spouse sponsorship and together with that, also an open work permit.
The Immigration call centre people told me that i do not need to apply for extension of my stay as visitor due to the fact that the open work permit is already enough to extend my stay.
Now that my visitors status has expired. An immigration consultant has told me that I need to renew my visitors permit.
What should I do? My visitors pass has already been expired almost 2 months now. should i really renew it? or i dont need to?

Additional info: My Visitor permit expires on 23rd January, I submitted my application for PR and OWP 22nd January and they received it on 24th January.
As for the Immigration call centre agent, as long as i "sent" the documents before my status expires, it is ok.

Please advise...

Thanks.
