Your help is highly appreciated.


I got work experience points from my previous company. However, this company had closed few years ago.

Received a mail from IRCC, asking me to provide with an up-dated letter of employment and pay-stubs for all the years i have worked in that company.

1. Can I just contact my previous manager and ask him for the reference letter?
2. Should I have to provide all pay stubs or just a few from each quarter year should be sufficient ?



Thank you very much.
Any idea why would they ask again for those stuffs?

Well, it used to happen in the past that passport is required for all inland. Nowadays, it seems IRCC randomly select inland applications that will land at a local office. They termed this "Pilot Program" as they are testing out the benefits of an applicant landing at the nearest local IRCC rather than having to travel to a boarder which they think is more demanding. However, it turns out that going to the boarder might be more beneficial as it expedites the landing process unlike having to wait for 6 weeks (in some cases up to 8 weeks as some centers claim to be very busy).

Seems everything about Canada is associated with "WAIT"..................Crazy!!!
Oh yeah i heard about the same, was not clear how exactly it works. Sorry about it

Depends
Again depends on what is bad luck according to you.

If you would have read just 2-3 pages back you would know what to expect. Other way is to click the link in my signature which will take you the list of Montreal cases we know on this forum.

Okay what I got from looking 2-3 pages back is that those who r lucky ..gets it in 5.5 months!
bad luck to me...is a real delay, i mean beyond 6 months
my eligibility is "in progress" security and criminality haven't started yet, seems no AD would be required.... as the CIC agent said, I also ordered GCMs on October 5th, and yet to receive!

Not at all. If it felt that way .. sorry for that.

So yes now knowing this .. if 6 months is your target than Montreal may not be unlucky. You need to wait till Jan though given current trend.

Eligibility is in progress till COPR is printed so that is not an indication of progress. If agent said eligibility is in progress than it may mean many things. Montreal doesn't update online accounts so best way of knowing what is happening is GCMS notes. So wait till your notes arrive.

Welcome to the forum. We are looking at late Jan or early February for July AOR based on trends. But who knows, there may be a miracle in the next few weeks. Fingers crossed.
Did you use getgcms or gcmsbuddy for ordering of notes?

I don't know anyone who used them so I am not sure how long it takes for them. I know people who used getgcms and got between the 30th-35th day. I have also seen some people who used the other one being delayed.
I am not sure if it has to do with Montreal itself or just backlogs. Expecting mine this week,lets see what happens

Hi Guys,

Just wanted to check if anyone has experience on how much time it takes for a Canada Post Standard Delivery from Canada ( Ottawa ) to US ( New York) . I had ordered my RCMP verification and it seems like it will be dispatched tomorrow morning. Wanted to know what to expect in terms of time take. ( I understand Canadapost Strike changes the game for the worse). Any general experience would be helpful.

Breaking news...........So I was writing a letter to request for urgent processing of my landing interview since my spouse medical will be expiring in 2 months. On doing so, my colleague asked me to help check for our seminar time. Upon trying to check that, behold the interview appointment email from my local IRCC office.

Guys, I will be landing next week Wednesday............I can't express how delighted I am to just get this done. I will be sharing my landing experience with you all!

I wish everyone waiting for Montreal VO the quickest of positive response, Amen!

It will all end with praise!!!!!
