Hello guys,

My landing experience!! I am officially a permanent resident of Canada!!! What a looong wait since 2013...

Anyway, for those who are going to be next.

I drove to Peace Arc Border crossing. (55 minutes from my place). I told american officer I wanted to do a flag pole, so he gave me a paper on my passports and told me to drive to the office. So I did, gave my documents inside and had to wait for about 5 minutes. (not very nice their attitude, but it´s normal with them).

So I drove back to Canadian offices and after a few questions I was told to drive in, park and go inside to line B. I gave my documents, answered only one question ´´where do you work?´´. He asked the same question to my girlfriend.

After that, we were told to wait and after 5 minutes he had all our documents ready. He went over the Permanent Resident information sheet and told us ´´congratulations´´ and gave us two flags of Canada.

So basically in 30 minutes everything was done.

Surprisingly he told us that because we are from Visa exempt country, we could fly to our countries without having to wait for PR cards. Honestly, I am not too sure about that.

Anyway, thank you everybody for the support and I really hope you guys get your PPR soon.

By the way, if you guys remember I made the mistake of sending my passport copies to the address for people who live in the USA....(I sent them again to the right address as per recommendation from CIC call Centre). Well, I also sent an email to cpc-ottawa. The replied 48 hours later saying that there was no need to resend my documents and they asked me for tracking number. On friday October 27th my application was approved and return tracking was activated. It arrived yesterday but I had to pick it up from office today.

Thank you guys.

Congrats!!!
You deserve it!!!
It was such a long journey.
I hope cic officers they really focus on our regular applicants!
Not only the refugees...
It is so shocking and sad to see there are still june applicants waiting for PPR.

it is actually confirmed that they are working on refugees over actual people who have been waiting for a long time through legal process.
Hopefully PR cards come soon so we can at least go out of country for few days.

Could you please elaborate as to what legal process was used to confirm they are working on refugees over other applications? Thanks.

Could you please elaborate as to what legal process was used to confirm they are working on refugees over other applications? Thanks.

it has been confirmed through border agents when we go for our landing process through many applicants here.

It was also confirmed when the agent told me that all applications including PR cards are going through delays because of the resources allocated towards refugees.

PR cards are also being delayed?? In their website shows 41 days.....I really hope is that and not longer....I wanna go on Christmas to Spain and considering I did my landing on November 1st, I expect to get my PR card by December 12th...... Otherwise I will have to travel without it....

A friend of mine, Australian citizen, did his landing a few weeks ago and he had to travel to New York without his PR card.....he is coming back today.....Let's see if he has any problem boarding the plane. I'll keep you posted.

 

[PNPONTARIO2016]

one can travel back and forth to USA without PR card but not to any other country from Canada. That's what border agent told us.
Work around would be in your case (if you have USA visa) to travel via USA land border when coming back to Canada...

travel back and forth to USA without PR card VIA LAND ONLY! not through airport. For any other entry to canada, if we dont have a PR card, we will need a PR Travel Document, which can only be obtained from a visa office outside Canada.

@87arq: the border agent specifically told me "expect delays in your PR card".
