Dear @legalfalcon - I really appreciate your input on my sister's express entry application from Iran which has started in Nov 2016, and is still under process!

@legalfalcon
I want to use a one way ticket from Toronto back home. I will show my COPRS on the US Canadian borders since I dont have my PR card with me. When I landed I did not give out a list of the things (including money and so on) I need to bring with me when I settle in Canada. Since it was a soft landing. How should I go about this now? I'd like to prepare this list now for my upcoming trip from Toronto. Any tips please? Also if this is risky in any way do you think it would be better to just fly out from the US instead of Canada? I'd waste a ticket but taking a risk with immigration is much worse.
Please advise. Many Thanks

Hi.

Got my ppr last March 27, 2019. AOR June 1, 2018. RR for work exp and pof.

I need to extend passport submission to my vo. They only gave me 5 days to submit my passport but my passport is with korean embassy. I will not be able to meet the deadline to submit passport. Medical will expire on June 6.

Anyone here familiar with requesting to extend the deadline for passport submission? after how many days did you receive response from them?

Do you think they will give me extension? :(

So worried right now.

Thanks

Dear @legalfalcon,
please find time to check this huge amount of text (but I think it provides a context) regarding my partner's and mine situation (EE FSW inlend application, AOR Sep. 2018). Any insight, or suggestion, reading of this GCMS notes will be greatly, tremendously appreciated!

FYI, the PA submitted a request for Visitor Record Extension prior to submitting the EE-PR app - we were thinking about going back to our home country and applying from there, but hoped for a quick processing being in Canada - lol/sobbing -, and made a decision to apply inland after the extension request was submitted.
So, the EE-FSW inland app was submitted while PA had his VR extension app processing, and while dependent was on valid VR.
Due to a 5+ months processing time for the VR extension, PA submitted an Additional document (Letter of Explenation) via on-line form to additionally acknowledge dual intent (having PR app processing), and ask for a date specific extension based on the official estimated app decision date (which was 25th March 2019).
Then, 2 days after the document was received by the responsible agent, PA's request was refused with no specific reason (copy-paste of all possible reasons).
Dependent did the same for her VR extension (meaning presented the same text with same reasons as an additional info in regard to the VR extension) and was granted the extension.
Afraid that PA would be refused again if he was to apply for the restoration (which would then most definitely be a red flag), and having the estimated finalization of PR date so near (+ our lawyer said to just wait it out for that little while) we stayed until now. We are going back to our home country (within the 90 day of possible restoration period) by the end of this week, and will wait for our, hopefully positive, decision to be made there.
We are planning to make a change of address, and then send additional Letter of explanation to address the issues stated in the Notes.
I would love to hear your suggestions how to tackle this situation, so do check this loooooong, loong post. Please and thank you!

So here we go:

One more thing, @legalfalcon, bare with me, please.
In addition to the previous post,
we plan to:
1.) Inform CIC of the change of address once we return to home country
2.) Address the refusals and previous applications history stated in notes, chronologically and attaching documents (confirmation letters, correspondence letters etc.):
- clearly stating that we answered "yes" to form questions regarding previous refusals;
- 1st refusal was PA's Visitor Record when he applied for the latter on the last day of his valid Working Permit but the app was processed with the next day date, hence lost his status; which was restored afterwards;
- 2nd refusal was PA's second IEC app, due to the submission within the necessary 3 months discontinuation period between two working permits;
- 3rd refusal was PA's VR extension request submitted after the EE profile was created, but before we actually decided to apply within Canada, therefore the reason for the extension was genuinely tourism, and we did not mention EE because we weren't sure we'll go ahead and do it. After the 5+ months of processing the extension request, the PA sent the Additional doc stating dual intent because we thought it might be understood as an omission of info, and then was promptly refused the extension while dependant was granted extension on the exact same grounds.
3.) The information in notes is not correct, PA never had a previous Express Entry application, he had Work Permit application which was refused due to discontinuation rule (no. matches the work permit).
4.) Dependent has a second IEC permit in process. There is no explicit rule that forbids having multiple applications in process, and obligation to inform and somehow connect to the PR processing application/ VO in regard to informing the CIC of the already visible additional post-PR-submission applications (whether those are visitor, study etc.) is nowhere to be find. We were explicit and upfront with all the applications and refusals that happened at the time of the PR app submission, and what happened later we assumed and were right that it shows on our file;
5.) Address the inability to verify the employer due to inconclusive web-search: We shall provide official translation of the copy of the State's Register of the Medical Practices; we'll provide additional links where the medical practice can be find; copies of practician's recent participation in various international professional conferences.

Hopefully that will be a successful strategy to tackle any doubts CIC might have.
And, I do apologize for a take-over, and huuuge amount of text - it's obvious, we are terrified and we have so much at stake.

Let us know what you think.
Thanks a tone!

Send a CSE and request, also provide the reason for the extension.

There is nothing known as soft landing. People make up terms which get stuck. If you landed in Canada as a PR, you get an opportunity to show a list to the CBSA officer and have it stamped, which is your goods to follow list. If you id not get it signed then, then it is very unlikely that you will be exempted from getting goods later.

Info Sharing: Complete


Got Ghost Update / ADR Letter on 19th Feb 2019: They requested Supplementary Information Request for Students (SIRS) Form along with Resume. I really don't understand why they requested SIRS since I have not applied for student visa nor I am currently studying.

Also Background status changed to IP2 ( We are processing your background.......) on 19th Feb 2019

Uploaded the Additional documents on 21st Feb 2019, status as of now is " Not Applicable"

Called them on 18th March, agent told the below:
Eligibility: Still reviewing whether you meet the eligibility
Security: Background verification's are currently in process
Criminality: Completed

With the above timeline, am I under Security Screening?
@legalfalcon

Thank you so much for your reply @legalfalcon! Do you think we should send her pay stubs... now as they never asked for it and every time that we asked for an update they said the file is under review and they will let us know if they need additional information. Also, do you think it is normal for it to take two years to pass the eligibility?? Thank you so much for your time!

There is nothing known as soft landing. People make up terms which get stuck. If you landed in Canada as a PR, you get an opportunity to show a list to the CBSA officer and have it stamped, which is your goods to follow list. If you id not get it signed then, then it is very unlikely that you will be exempted from getting goods later.
I did show a list but the officer told us we need specific numbers and prices and that we can submit a list during our next trip. Does that mean its over for our list of goods to follow?
