Quick question guys, if anybody is acquainted with NEXUS program, do you know if I can apply for it with COPR document or do I have to wait for PR card?

Probably could try with COPR, but I'd wait and just try with PR Card...

Hello All,

I would require your advise on the below questions:

1) I hold Canada PR and I recently got married. I live in Montreal. I got my wife to Canada on a visitor visa.I now want to apply for Inland PR and Work Permit together. Could you please let me know what could be the timeline to get the Work permit and the PR?
2) My wife does not have work experience, So will the WP get approved?
3) In the work permit application, what should I fill in the previous work experience section as it is compulsory to fill that section?
4) Also to get the open work permit, Do I need to apply for CSQ/CAQ?

Thanks for your advise.

Regards,
Karthik

Thanks Sam, it definitely helps, wish I am as lucky:)

Hi Utopia,
No I did not get any SA or AIP, on June 6 my mycic eligibility check changed to under review and next day I got an email from directly landing office while all other things were under process. Hope that helps :)

~4 mos for Work Permit. ~12mos for PR.

It's not really required, but if the form is demanding it, and she has no work history, you can just put general labour ?

As to the CSQ, no I think that's only to settle (PR).

IRCC is processing applications received before Monday, April 25 2016.
They moved up 4 days in the last 12 days, it seems like they have been slowed down.
It used to move up by a week every week or so.
Wow, that's true. Used to be a week at a time. They slowed down then. I suppose the webform backlog could've caused this? It seems like they're 1.5 months delayed on the webform. Based off personal experience

It may be true. If they are waiting for submitted documents. That said, it's the same department, I think, that is also handling the digitizing the docs being sent via courier.

So, it might be fair to say, there is a tremendous amount of document requests?

I have got sponsor approval today , CIC received my spouse application on 6th June 2016, almost an year.

Also my wife received medical exam request, we submitted upfront medical though, not sure if it is not valid after an year or it was system generated email sent to all the people, if anyone have clue please suggest.
