I am Sept 12th applicant and still waiting on COPR
Applied for GCMS 29 days ago so expecting them through in next day or so.
Hopefully nothing too troubling in the notes?
 
Done landing!

Very easy process. I had US Visa but border officer at US side told me I don't need to enter, she didn't even ring my passport in.
Just took details for name and DOB.

Canadian side was easy. Just asked me for any crime et al and had to sign on a couple places, and then bang!

I got my PR!!

Heartfelt thanks to everyone in the community, you made 2015 bearable! :)

Hello guys, my application was received September 30th but on my Gcms note it says October 7th when do I start counting cos I'm not sure if it's up to 19month yet but if I count from September 30th that shows up on my ECAS then it's 19month for sure..

I'm just confused on what month to count from

well at this point both dates are past 19 months. Btw how did things go with the NOC code issue you had. Were you able to clarify things with CIC?
 
You can not initiate extension of your closed work permit, your employer can do that. You must apply for BWOP ASAP . You are really late in the game :)


Here is sample explanation letter , write one for each applicant.

====================
Dear Sir / Madam,

[SUB: APPLICATION FOR BRIDGING OPEN WORK PERMIT]

I, <YOUR NAME>, am applying for a Bridge Open Work Permit as my current closed work permit is expiring on <DATE>. I have submitted Application for Permanent Residence in Canada under Canadian Experience Class (CEC) and received an AOR (Acknowledgement of Receipt) from centralized intake office on DATE.

I am the principal applicant and I am currently working in <PLACE NAME> as <YOUR ROLE>, on a closed work permit. My current work permit expires on <DATE>.

My wife, <SPOUSE NAME (IF APPLICABLE)> is also applying for <open work permit> and my son/daughter, <KID's NAME IF APPLICABLE> is applying for extension of his/her stay as visitor in Canada.

Our application details are:

YOUR DETAILS ( including name, DOB, application #, UCI etc)

Waiting for the good news IJN
 
Hey guys,

At last I got my COPR today :P :P :P
Planing to land at Pearson Airport in June!

Thanks a lot for all your help!! And who is still waiting,hopefully you will get your papers soon!
 
Just received GCMS notes. Eligibility and criminality is passed.
Medical is Passed - Expired.

I have done UPFRONT medicals for my wife on 11-Apr-2015 when i applied TRV for her in India. used the same for PR.
I have done my Upfront medicals on 17-Nov-2015.

Looks like my wife's medicals are expired, as it has been more than one year.
Will they send new medical request for my wife?
My wife is 24 weeks pregnant now, how should we go about X-ray test, if they ask for new medical tests?
Please advise

Also in GCMS at the end in Notes.
It has note saying RPRF send in batch on 04-March-2016.
But I never received the RPRF mail on that date.
I went ahead and paid RPRF on 17-Apr-2106.
could this have affected my Processing ? as I paid RPRF after 30 days from what they thought they have send a mail which i didn't received.

I can see the updated RPRF fees on GCMS notes.
 
since i missed RPRF mail, is there a chance of missing PPR email as well?
what should i do?
My email address was correctly updated.

Also had i received RPRF mail on 04-march, i would have paid it immediately any may be i might have got my PPR before my wife's medicals expired.

Lot of thoughts on what went wrong after seeing GCMS notes today.
But still keeping the hope up and smiling :) :).
