Salamat sa reply at info.ragluf said:Wala naman "grace period" officially, but usually merong few months in between receiving back the PPs with the visa and the visa validity/expiry date. Yun yung masasabing "grace period". Kailangan nasa Canada ka na at nag-land ka na before the expiry ng visa otherwise, paso na ang visa mo at di ka papayagang mag-enter ng Canada.
Pwede mo naman estimate ang time ng validity ng visa mo - usually it is 1 year from when medicals were received at the CEM/VO. So if your medicals received is for example on 12 Dec 2013, then following the "usual trend" the visa expiry date expected to be granted is 13 Dec 2013. Most visas are issued and returned before that expiry date and the applicant does have a few months in between to tend to the preparations for relocation/immigration to Canada.
To ensure your visa expiry date is granted up to the validity of the medicals - make sure your passport validity does not expire before the medicals (see example above). So if your PP is nearing expiry, better renew as soon as possible before PPR comes.

Pinadala ko ang visa application from SG on 3 Dec 2013. Another waiting game for me.
