Tips for 2016 (Future) PGP Applicants

[Rossei]

I know there's a lot of information on the spreadsheet and I did spend a few minutes on it that's where I got the information about Ya61's package and asked him about his returned packages etc. I don't think I need to look at the spreadsheet again as I do not have further questions whatsoever

I was referring to the links given in 2016 SS. All relevant previous year's SS links are given in INTRO sheet. It frustrates me when I see someone (who is in the SS) asking a question which is straight given in the SS. Hence, I didn't want to be a part of 2016 paranoia, yet I'm here with you guys on people's request.

Anyway, good luck with CC charging! Mind you, if you haven't set up a mobile alert yet; it takes hours to show up in your online banking.

Fingers crossed

Same here! Whew ;D

I am just wondering, after CC has been charged, what will be the next step?

Thanks!

AOR and E-case

Thanks, ya61x!

AOR - Acknowledgement of Receipt?

What is e-case?

What is e-case?

Once you have AOR you will be able to check your status online with your file number which is called Ecase.

Cool. Thanks Pamma97!

I forgot to ask this previously.

I made a mistake in putting the postal code in the 'additional family information' form of my mother. I corrected it by putting a white marker and I wrote the correct one. Is that a deal breaker for my application?

Cool. Thanks Pamma97!

No Worries

Hi, Can you please clarify mobile alert for credit card? They send you an alert when such a transaction takes place?

Yes you can do it, call the bank, inform them that you need to be notified if there is any transaction above 500 cad or 100cad or 1000 cad, they will send alerts via sms or email based on your choice and it differs bank to bank; but since we are not sure what the transaction description, they cannot put the alert on that, only feasible is on the amount, which I have done that too.

Again technology, no one can gurantee; unless and until you receive an alert...

Just found out that I can't set up transaction alerts ion my BMO mastercard. Too bad. I guess I'll just check my statement daily for the next few weeks. Sigh.
