I totally understand your worrisome provoked by the terrible service of cic. Our family landed on May 12,2014. I and our son received our Pr card after 8 weeks, but not my wife who is the principal applicant. We called cic calling centre in the 8th week they put a note in my wife'file. But the processing centre did not update
her file after 3weeks! yesterday I called cic again, they told me my wife's file needs additional review. My wife had an urgent and short travel to China. The delayed PR card processing have postponed her flight schedule once. Obviously she have to modify her return schedule again. For the modifications of her schedule, we have lost almost 1000$.
I do not understand the cic issue policy for the new PR card. Since the CIC approve our PR application why they need to take so long time to issue a PR card, a proof of PR status. For the loss causes by the terrible cic service , I plan to file a lawsuit to fight my right as a legal PR to get a PR card and having the right to travel and return Canada.
We are the same victims of the stupid cic policy. We need work together to against the terrible cic service!
