He can apply to the US once he lands and get it for 10 years, using the COPR, trust me on this one

Check again, I applied from UAE because you cant apply to USA unless you complete 1 year in Canada, only commonwealth passport can apply or something like this,
 
Guys,

Is it possible to get the PPR without having the status under eCas change from application received to under process or something ;D

sorry took long to reply , i am currently going all over the place figuring out stuff, preparing , researching etc.. where the hell is Shiva?, i could use the extra 6 hands hehe

alright i cant answer all your questions, but here is what i done, i found a local freight shipping company and reserved 1.5 cubic meters (might expand to 2m)
the price was very reasonable in comparison to air shipping (per KG) but what i found inconvenient was that I have to provide the box (hire a time sucking carpenter) and i will have to transport both box and the items destined for shipping (hire movers/breakers + pickup truck) since that company doesn provide those services.

-you can fit as much as you want furniture, of course at the price of how much the total volume reserved is, you can even rent an entire container for yourself only if needed but that would be around 4 digits worth of money.

-unless your furniture is Vintage or high quality or even handmade then it is really not worth shipping them, you can get great deals at Wallmart and the likes, or even pay a little extra and get self-put-together Ikea products a.k.a *vite-fait* and they will still be a whole lot cheaper than the local cheap quality products, same thing for clothing btw.

-as far as electric/electronic appliances go someone already answered about the voltages but i would like to add that it is the type of sockets that you should worry about and you can actually get cheap plug converters around Dora area, get a dozen of those will cost less than 10$

- (+) as far as this shipping company goes door-to-door is either an extra service or dealt with by a different company and i haven't looked into that because my friends will be using their cars to take care of port-to-door .

and please we do need people to add more questions on this thread and others to supply answers, thats the main purpose of why this thread was created :)

Lmastory how much the 1,5 meter costs?

We are in the same boat. I am afraid that because I have lived in 5 different countries in the past 6 years and submitted 5 police clearances,it will cause a delay in my file.Maybe for this reason it is not showing in process.

I'm leaving to lebanon on monday and i will arrive on tuesday, submit my docs on wednesday and wait for the passport so i come back immediately, all my belongings are already here. I hope it doesn't take more than a week. See you in Gatineau nshalla

csaade! you'll settle in Gatineau!? I'll be doing this for my first three months...!!!
 
I have lived in 7 countries and submitted seven police certificates. Any ways i do not believe that this is a reason to delay a file because when they apply for your security checks, it is done once at the same time through seven countries.
