Hi guys I got this by email yesterday. What does exactly it means

Dear XXXX
This refers to the Application for Permanent Residence you made under the Spouse or
Common-Law Partner in Canada Class.
We are pleased to advise you that processing of your application has been completed. The
Canada Immigration Centre in Etobicoke IRCC will contact you to arrange an appointment for
the finalization of your permanent resident application.
IMPORTANT: You and your family members, if any, will be required to present original
identification document(s) to the Canada Immigration Centre at your appointment. A final
decision concerning the granting of permanent residence status will be made at that time. If
permanent residence is granted, the name that will appear on the confirmation of permanent
resident document is your name as it appears on your passport or identity documents.
Passport / Travel Document
The passport / travel document that we have on record for you bears the number XXX
 If you are in possession of this passport / travel document, you must bring it with you to
your appointment at the Canada Immigration Centre.
 If this passport / travel document was seized by CBSA, it will be sent to the Canada
Immigration Centre directly and will be returned to you at your appointment. Do not
contact CBSA to retrieve it as it will not be released to you until your appointment at the
Canada Immigration Centre.
 If you are in possession of a new passport / travel document, you must contact this office
immediately.
Right of Permanent Residence Fee (RPRF)
The Right of Permanent Residence Fee in the amount of $490.00 is required before you can
become a permanent resident in Canada. The Confirmation of Permanent Residence document
will not be issued to you until this payment is made. If you have not already made this payment,
you must submit proof of this payment to this office as soon as possible via e-mail, facsimile or

This is how it gets to the 12 months average that CIC wants, you get DM in 5 months, my wife gets it in 19 months, we average 12!

That right there, sounds like profiler talk! :)

True though...

I was wondering when they'd cut 2016 in half and start working on parallel to clear older and newer side by each. At the 13.5

HI how everyone doing hate Chang

hi how are you congratulations on missus landing interview it feels different when every thing is done
Thanks Carol... She was drunk an hour after it was all done....and over the weekend too... She considers it "Canadian citizenship". She doesn't do politics (Russia: woting isn't real). She doesn't want a high sec job, so the theory is, the rest is formality....

She was nervous up until the exact questions I told her would be asked, in the very same order, were asked... She broke out laughing at the window when he asked about crimes....

I did pass around a pre and post pic... I am not sure if you can see relief on her face or not...

Browning: what would you say?

Can some of your 2016 applicants tell me what your timeline was like? I'm a March 2017 applicant, after the AORs in April, there hasn't been any other changes, except the Schedule A request. When do they ask for Medical etc and how long on average for Sonsor Approval?
Thank you!

5 months to DM ! Congrats !!!

So just linked the OWP extension...looks like it was approved on the 3rd of May..so might be in the mail this week...so much for landing quickly and then cancelling that before it was approved so we can get our $250 back, lol


Still no landing invite from Kitch....contacted the MP's office...hoping to hear back from them soon for a timeline or something...

2016 will mostly be over 13mos. Because the system changed. So it's not really an accurate compare..

They say 12mos. As of late, nearly all of that is waiting for inactivity. Lately, people can go from AOR to DM in an afternoon...

The missus is gorgeous, and was beaming !

The profiler was also beaming ..

I'm actually surprised at the crowd you noted. From the spreadsheet it looks like Kitch likes to do inland landings on Fridays.. maybe i'll get called in next friday .. #hereshoping ;)
