Okay thanks! Cos we have almost the same timeline but I haven't heard back. I'm hopeful though
Pathway to permanent residency recognizes exceptional service of asylum claimants on front lines of COVID-19 pandemic
- Thread starter derin1010
- Start date
Criminality will continue running till the day you get COPR, so congratulations in advance
Hello everyone, may we all still waiting receive good news, Please I want to digress a bit and ask a question from anyone who can answer me..lol, Please how does Citizenship counts, especially for a refugee that later got PR. Thanks.
In general you are supposed to be in canada for three years after PR to apply for citizenship but if you were a refugee claimant you count the days before you get your PR upto 1year then you count 2years after you get your PR then apply for citizenship
When calculating your time in Canada:
- only the five (5) years immediately before the date of your application are taken into account;
- each day you were physically present in Canada as an authorized temporary resident or protected person before you became a permanent resident counts as half a day (up to a maximum of 365 days);
- each day you were physically present in Canada after you became a permanent resident counts as one day;
If you are claiming time as a Protected Person, the only time allowed is the time from when you received a positive Protected Person decision on your refugee claim or PRRA application until the day before you became a permanent resident.
Therefore, for everyone on this pathway, your time in Canada starts when you receive your PR.
Congratulation to all our members that have received COPR, AIP and AOR... I pray more COPR will come this week to our members in Jesus Name. Quick question for people that have received COPR , how does it take for someone to receive new SIN because I went inside Service Canada for my own but I was told it will take few weeks to receive it via mail although my SIN still valid from work permit, Secondly, how long does it take to receive response from CRA if you upload documents requested via online platform for child benefit. Thirdly, has anyone collected their PR card through this pathway and how long doses it take for them to process it because no email or message confirm from Niagara fall that confirm if our photo was received by them. Regards
I went to service Canada today to change my SIN and I got the new SIN immediately, the whole process wasn’t up to 15mins. For the child benefits , I was told it takes between 6-8weeks to get response. To get the PR card is from 2 months or so.
