Hi,

I finished my landing formalities on October 31st 2010. I have given my friends address in the CORP to send my PR cards. My friend has still not recieved them. It is almost 3 months now and I have still not recieved my PR. Let me know if anyone of you who landed after me have got your PR card.

Also can anyone please let me know whome we need to contact to get the status of my PR. Please provide me the email and phone numbers.

Hi All,
Just a simple question about filling up the PR Card Application. I am currently preparing these documents for my family before we land in March. My questions are:

1. What date should I put in question number 2. Date you become a permanent resident of Canada"?
2. Do I need to fill-up section B-Your Immigration History? Not sure what to put in this field "Place you became a permanent resident of Canada"
3. Are my children required to fill these forms as well?

Thank you.

Thank you.

a. The cost of the 1st PRC is 'included' in our RPRF.
b. It is filed 'online' by the BSO@the POE while 'landing'.
c. IMM5445 isn't required... unless we do not have a Canadian address upfront.

Thanks a lot Qorax!
Would you know what date should I put for the field that says "Date you become a permanent resident of canada"? Is this my arrival date in Canada?

So that means I will not worry about the supplementary form as I have canadian address to use upon my landing?

Thanks again.

Best way/mode : 'By Hand' - thru a friend/relative.
Alternate mode : 'By Courier' - if u do not have a choise.

Hi Qorax,

as you know I have got PR visa as Provincial Nominee. At the time of nomination, my uncle showed funds on my behalf.

In the COPR document there is no mention of any funds requirement. I want to ask

1) Does any funds requirement is mentioned in COPR for FSW applicants or the format is same for all?
2) Is there any minimum fund requirement for me (the funds showed at time of AINP was 14,000 -- which my uncle showed)
3) what will happen if I have less funds than required at time of immigration.
4) is it possible that I show my uncle latest statement too at time of landing.

thanks much for your help. You have been great help throughout.

Hi Qorax,

Is it ok to make your first landing a permanent one? I mean unlike that others mostly do to land and then just come back to canada to live permanently. Coz I don't want to waste time and would like to live in Canada ASAP. Is there a lot of risk? coz we have to leave our jobs and start a new life with our daughter who is now going to school.

Please enlighten me.

Thanks

Unless you have a job lined up, it is always a bit risky to move and most people who land and move later do not have a job lined up when they come either. They do it because they are not ready to move yet, must complete job contract, sell house etc. but must land before their PR visa expires so no matter how you do it, you can always expect having a bit of down time.

Thanks Leon.
I'm actually prepared to leave my job by that time and aware that it will be a new start for our family.
I want to move as I want us to start a new life immediately, start a new job, get a professional license and eventually become a citizen and bring the rest of my family.
My main concern is, is there a lot of risk that after you land there will be problem like they did not finalize your PR status?

 

[Leon]

No, there is no risk that they do not finalize your PR status. Once you land, you are a PR. You can go right away and get your SIN number and apply for jobs. You will get the SIN card in the mail in a couple of weeks. The PR card usually in 4 to 8 weeks

Thanks a lot Leon! I'm a bit relieved now
