Glad you got your answer! Spreadsheet updated.

Thanks - a quick question....the times on the spreadsheet: are they in total from when the VO receive your application or the time from CIC receiving your application? Have read around, but can't find the answer sorry

Which times are you referring to? On the Home and Statistics tab these are for the date your application is received in Mississauga.

Got COPR today after returning from a week in the UK. It's dated 4th May so I estimate it arrived in the post on 7th (seeing as I was here until the morning of the 6th. Good look everyone else. I'm driving to US border tomorrow morning to finally land!

Hello all!

Just a small update to let you know that we've received COPR in the post this morning!

I think my flatmate thought I was a bit overexcited when the postman came It took 9 months almost to the day to complete the process, which is a lot less than some, but I'm very glad it's over.

My husband will be landing in Montreal on July 15th - we'll let you know how it goes.

Hello! I've had a look through the FAQ and can't quite find what I'm looking for so hopefully this isn't something that has been asked over and over...

I (principal applicant) just recieved an email from the High Commission of Canada in London requesting additional documents (new photos, another photocopy of my passport, and an 'updated information chart') - we hadn't ever recieved anything telling us we were passed stage 1 but I guess this is almost the same thing. What I'm wondering though is to do with where this email attachment was addressed to. I was living with my partner in Vancouver when I submitted my application but a few weeks later I moved back to the UK, and I used the online form to let CIC know that my address had changed and what was going on. I never heard anything back but that's apparently the norm, but this request for additional documents has my old address listed rather than the update.

Basically my question is is this normal(ish) and is this the reason they have sent me an 'updated information chart'? There is a section for my current mailing address on that form... I'm just wondering if this is something I need to chase up more aggressively, as there is a nice little segment of the email telling me I need to update Mississauaga in writing if anything like this changes. Does my initial action cover me?! Also can't do it online as I don't meet the stipulations they make on that web page

Very sorry if this has been covered before! Thanks

Got COPR in the mail this morning! Very very happy, still can't quite get my head around how quick this has been for us, we've been extremely lucky. I had a couple of concerns about the COPR though, related to the address stuff I talked about above.

It says "COR: Canada" under my details, which I assume means country of residence, but I'm currently not living in Canada and haven't been for the last couple of months. It also lists my sponsors address as being our old address, not his current one. I sent our updated info to CIC through the online form that said something like "Use this form if there is a change in your circumstances e.g status, address etc" as at that point our application hadn't got passed sponsor approval. Are these things that need to be fixed? Should I contact CIC Mississauga?

Thanks!

Congrats on such a quick COPR too!

I don't have any answers for that as I am nowhere near experienced enough to answer.

Spreadsheet updated. I am not sure about your question regarding the address but I know that they ask you to confirm where to send your PR card during the landing process, and obviously if they do not confirm the address you can bring up the issue with the person who deals with you.

Thanks! I've contacted the London office anyway as the letter accompanying the COPR says they should be told if anything is wrong. Better to be safe than sorry, I'll be panicking when I land otherwise. At least this way I can say I did what I could if anything comes of it.

Still no sign of our sponsor approval though my sponsors ecas stages say:
We started processing your application on April 21, 2015.
We sent you a letter on May 4, 2015 about the decision on your application. Please consider delays in mail delivery before contacting us.

If that helps for the spreadsheet at all?
