PNP- PR ( CIC applicants SEPTEMBER and OCTOBER 2015)

[Rizmo]

Hi just landed 2 days ago at Coutts Alberta/ Sweetgrass border.. Everything went well! Had a smooth landing.. it was so quiet and not busy at all..

Canadian officer was so nice to me, asked me about my status and i said it just got expired like last week ( it didn't seem's to be a problem to him at all about my status) I gave all my expired work permits as well as my passport and COPR he checked it, asked some questions about my copr then he told me to have a seat and wait till he call my name (though I'm just the only one there who's doing immigration landing) then he called my name and sign the paper and that's about it.. it took just 10 mins.

Oh btw he still mentioned about booking your appointments to IRCC so you don't need to drive to the border though I'm already there infront of him so.. (I just want to tell him that: I am here cuz I had enough of waiting lol ) it was a long drive from Edmonton 6hrs I guess it's​ not bad but it's all worth it! I was really nervous but I'm glad everything went well..

And I'm actually surprised that we've got a bunch of questions at the US side than Canada.. My bf (Canadian citizen) who was the driver got all the questions and I got only few.. they're seems more interested with my bf than to the person who's doing the flagpole.. and my bf said I don't really care as I'm not interested to go to the US and im just here as a driver and to support you..

That's all for my experience.. Goodluck to you all!

Happy everything went well for you, Rizmo. Thanks for also sharing your experience, am sure it will go a long way to help others with similar unique experience.

I landed at North Portal near Estevan, and I think I spent more time in the US border office than in Canada border office. The CBSA officer even asked me if I wanted to keep my old work permit as souvenir lol

 

[Rizmo]

Lucky you.. I wanted to keep all my work permits as well as a souvenir five of them.. but because I was so nervous that time because my work permit expired already I didn't bother to ask if I can keep it I just gave all my papers to the officer..

I don't think they allow keeping expired permits. The office took the first ever study permit from me...

[Moneey90]

I got asked same info back in Nov 2016. still waiting

hey bud did you inquire cic about your file if yes then what they said ?

 

[alexatam]

Hi guys. Do you know if we can do landing at any Canada US border, or some will have limited services without landing possibilities? Our closest crossing is 270 km from us, but it's small one, not sure how it works. Thanks

Could not reply you back through your inbox, since your inbox is full

Hi Jennyan,

My boyfriend and I are also in the same boat (We have separate applications with almost the same timelines).

We are both Oct 21 , 2105 applicants and on mid November we were both asked for additional information (CV, publications,...). Our background check changed into "in process" in mid December. No updates since then!

I called CIC today and the agent said because of the additional documents that I have been requested, my application has been sent to a different department for further reviews! and that now they are waiting for that department to review my documents! He said he cannot give me any time frames and I just have to wait.

Hello everybody,

I am new to this forum although I've been "silent follower" for a long time now. This forum and people going through the same (or similar) situations was huge help to me so far. We all know how stressful it can be but at the same time you want to be patient and grateful...anyway, I would like to share my timeline with you:

I am an inland, got my provincial nomination in 2015 and applied (paper based) for PR at the beginning of October:
got AOR 11th of January 2016
got Medical requests 6th of September, did it 7th of September
In between they asked for additional documents (updated schedule A and such during June and July)
My husband is included in the application: he got an email at the end of January, saying they are requesting new medical exam for him. He did it the next day and following Monday on my online cic account it said: medical exam passed. That is the only thing that ever changed...that being said and 16 months being passed, I decided to give CIC a call and (after numerous times of trials) I was able to talk to the agent today. To make it short, she told me that 16 months is only approximate and that they just opened my file now in January. They will start working on the background check and that will take several months. She said to give them a call in May to follow up if I want but it will not be any time soon....now, I know I am not the only one who was asked to resend certain documents or even to repeat the medical exam but it makes me so upset that after having to wait year and a half to get provincial nomination and now waiting almost as much to (hopefully) get pr...the only thing I can do is wait more. As reading all the people sharing their happiness for receiving PPR requests and finalizing their PR's -it makes me very happy but I was wondering if anyone was in similar situation and had to wait way longer then average processing time? And why and for how long?
Thank you!

I just wanted to give an update, hoping that others that are in the same boat will get their PPR soon!
On Friday I opened my email with the idea to clean up my promotions & junk mail in general: I almost deleted THE email: I got Final Request and it went into Promotions instead of my regular inbox!
I hope others that have been waiting got their PPR soon or are about to get it any day now.

i think that happened to many people that PPR email goes into Promotion by Gmail Inbox. so everyone who got DM should go check right now

I set a special folder for any email from gc.ca so I won't miss it. I encourage everyone on gmail to do that too

Hello everyone!
I just want to ask help about my current situation.

10-28-2016: submitted application to cic
11-02-2016: application received
01-13-2017: AOR
02-03-2017: Medical request received
02-10-2017: cic requested for additional documents via email

My problem is, I cannot upload the requested documents at mycic. I cannot find the "upload" tab. I tried using different browsers but still cannot find where I should upload the documents. In profile at mycic it says that there is no required documents. I really don't know what to do and I am worried because I was only given 30 days to submit the requested documents. I hope someone can help me.
Thank you!
