I submitted my passport on 12/10/15 and got my passport back today. Was amazed at the speed it was issued. A great lesson to the aspirants yet to start CIC process is that I was disappointed to have a CoPR expiring in 5 months because of my spouse's passport. It was stated in my PPR that if you want to have a 1 year maximum valid visa from your medical date, all your families' passport validity must be at least 1 year, hence I acted by renewing my spouse's passport, which expires in 5 months time, before submitting them for visa stamping.
Unfortunately, my smartness or effort was too late as her old passport, which started the process, was used to determine the whole family's visa validity, which has changed my plan completely. I intended travelling alone early next year and my family joins me later in mid 2016 in order to prepare well for their coming (getting accommodations, jobs and other stuffs) but I do not have any other option than to plan and travel with them within this short period.
An enquiry to all members who know about this; does SK immigration request for POF( Bank Statements) during landing? That fund have been tied down too long in that account. Need to be invested Cheesy
;D. My personal opinion about this is that I do not think they will ask or be strict about it because from my experience of travelling across country's borders all through the past years with influx of people crossing, I do not think they would have the whole time checking our bank statements or be strict if they don't see one
