Hi All

Have been reading for 2 years, so much information. Question, hubby got an email from Kingston on Saturday asking for a new police check - ours expired on Saturday and also to pay the RPRF. I paid that with my application. So, hubby is going to Kingston in the morning to get the police check - told her to do the 1 day cuz its so far to drive and I emailed Kingston to tell them that we already paid that fee. Whole reason I paid it was to avoid this processing delay of 60 days! Anyone had that happen before? Do you know how long it will take for PPR after we send in required info? I am assuming they have extended our medicals as they expired on Saturday as well and they didn't ask for that. Any thoughts on the timeline and the RPRF issue would be greatly appreciated!

For everyone'e info....my timeline

Hello and welcome to the forum. Congrats on hearing something from Kingston. Emailing them and telling them you paid the fee was the correct thing to do and they will get the mix up fixed on their end. I would think you should hear back from them approx about a month after you submit the police check but the timelines always vary so we can't really say for sure. I have added you to the spreadsheet. Welcome again and blessings!

There is NOTHING easy about this process is there?

I'm sorry to hear about your experience and it's very sad that your hubby couldn't get his health card. Can you call your provincial health office and ask them what is required? You can always try Blue Cross and pay for coverage until he can get his health card.

I am in Manitoba and my hubby got his health card just after he landed with his COPR, passport, and SIN as proof. And we're fortunate because the benefits kicked in right away.

Are there any provincial programs that can assist your hubby with finding a job? I found some links on the CIC website when I was looking for places in MB so try looking there.

Hang in there and good luck!!!! You will get through this transition!!!
Jamnic, are you in ON?

No worries my Dear! You must be super busy getting ready and dolled up for hubby.

That is a beautiful song by the way. 13 days of Sun basking and Love making you must be super excited to get out of here.

Have a wonderful and safe trip.
