I have received this letter and I want to know what it mean and what could be the next step and how long I have to finish this. My application has been 3 years already and it’s been stressful. Can someone plz help.


This letter refers to your Application for Permanent Residence under the Spouse or Common-Law
Partner in Canada Class.
It has been determined that you meet the eligibility requirements to apply for permanent residence as a member of the Spouse or Common-Law Partner in Canada class. Please note that a final decision will not be made until all remaining requirements for becoming a permanent resident have been met. These requirements include medical, security and background checks for you and, if applicable, all of your family members, both in Canada and abroad, even if they are not applying to join you in Canada at this time. You cannot become a permanent resident until you and all your family members have met these requirements. Please refer to the attached correspondence for further information on the additional requirements.
IMPORTANT: your application for permanent residence could be refused if:
 You and your family members do not meet all statutory requirements of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act.
 You receive a letter asking for a reply and fail to respond within the requested timeframe.
 You fail to advise Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) of any changes to your address. Changes to your contact information should be made through our online
service at www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/change-address.asp.
 You are not self-supporting. Persons in receipt of social assistance or welfare benefits,
either directly or indirectly, are defined in the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act as
inadmissible persons.
 You do not have a valid sponsorship. For example, if your sponsor withdraws his or her
support prior to you being determined to be a Permanent Resident.
If it appears you meet all requirements for permanent residence, you will receive an email inviting you to confirm your permanent residence through a secure online portal. For more information, please visit: https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees- citizenship/services/immigrate-canada/pr-confirmation-portal.html . It is important to keep your contact information current throughout your application process. If IRCC does not have curr

Congrats! This is the most important part of the process, since without an approved sponsor, you would not qualify!

Since it's been three years...do you still have legal status in Canada? If you do, you should be able to now apply for the Open Work Permit (if you did not include one when you applied for SCPLC sponsorship and now want/need one). As of last September, new Inland applicants can apply for the OWP once they receive the AOR email. Did you ever receive that email?

In any event, it shows that things are moving in the right direction for you!

Ok, that's even better news. The email that you recently received seems to the the all important AIP (Approval in Principle) email. With this, you can now apply for an OWP (Open Work Permit) if you did not include one with the PR application, and can probably obtain provincial health care now.

The first person that needs to be approved is the sponsor, because without an approved sponsor the primary applicant cannot qualify for sponsorship. Since you're now saying that your sponsor was approved more than a year ago, you may be getting close to reaching the finish line.

Is your daughter an approved protected person? You should already have an OWP if you are a protected person. Qualifying for provincial healthcare isn’t as straight forward as applying like everyone else. What province do you live in? Areyou currently working full-time?
