Thanks for the answer, Keden! That is surely re-assuring.
Ornob: No I have not yet. I was told by the person who assisted me through this application (his occupation gets marked as spam by the forum) that this second fee had to be paid at a later date. I think the first payment I did was of 550 CAD, and that the RPRF is around 750CAD, but no, I haven't, have you?
As I said, it is encouraging to see that several people here have gotten their PR in almost exactly a year. Another thing that has me going crazy is the fact that I hold a dual citizenship, which meant that I had to send documents from both countries (certificates of good conduct, passports, etc). Not only that, but in one of this countries I underwent a name change and used a temporary passport with a different name for about a year (long story short this other country's name laws didn't match my birth country's ones and they refused to accept my birth name when I was granted citizenship (through blood right) from them, so I had to go through a legal name change to have both passports with matching surnames). While I specified all the necessary information and sent certified translated copies of all the paperwork and certificates involved, I have convinced myself that this thing will add 6+ months of processing time to my PR
. Has anyone had any similar experiences?
