Hi everyone, I wanted to provide this group an update and advise that I received my COPR on February 16.
Timeline as follows:
- We received your application for permanent residence on September 15, 2015.
- We started processing your application on November 26, 2015.
- Medical results have been received.
- We sent you correspondence on January 11, 2016. If you have not yet provided the information or the requested documents, please do so as soon as possible. Please wait until you receive the correspondence before sending us additional information, as the correspondence will outline all information that is required.
To help provide perspective, I am a US Citizen applying outland (although have remained in Canada the entire time), have been married once before, and my current spouse was living with me in the US for the last 9 years [hence was relocating back to Canada and had not worked nor is working], no kids.
The correspondence from CIC referenced above in the timeline was a request for additional information to support our relationship and specifically called out another copy of my previous marriage divorce certificate. In response, we submitted ~30 emails spanning 9 years, another copy of divorce certificate, and a mixture of legal papers showing both of us listed (mortgage, home insurance, car titles, etc.). We responded on January 13 via email and honestly was shocked they turned it around in a month. We are off to the border on Monday -
The information on this board was priceless and we used no attorney or other consultants. Good luck all!
That's great to hear!! Congrats. Seems that US applicants are being processed faster so far this year. Thank you for the update and wishing you both the best with your new life in Canada together
