    The "2 years in 5 obligation".

    Thanks guys, that is a great explanation. Totally my misunderstanding of the validity/obligation, thinking I had two years left to meet the obligation. I would be prepared to go with the PRC as is and discuss it if reported. I am travelling on my own, though have family there (citizens), so...

    The "2 years in 5 obligation".

    Ok thank you. So if I arrive as a PR now I may be refused entry as I cannot meet the obligations anymore?

    The "2 years in 5 obligation".

    My PR is "active", since 25 May '15. I returned to the UK for work/personal obligations a few weeks later. Now looking to return to Canada 'permanently' on 1st Feb 2019. The card took 9 months to arrive and so my PRC has an expiry date 16th Feb 2021. It was fwd to me by family as I had...

    Scam. http://grandrockytechconstructions.com website is hosted in the United Arab Emirates. Why would a legit Canadian firm host in the UAE? Also, your HR Director James Millar is actually this guy, Michael Eskew, from UPS.... https://www.lilly.com/who-we-are/governance/board-of-directors...

    PR Card Photo Specification - which one is correct?

    Hi guys, I have been granted PR and landed etc., but have received a letter that my PR card cannot be issued because "the photograph provided does not meet the required specifications". So, I need to provide more photos. The letter included a copy of the "Appendix B: Photo specifications"...

    New PR card

    Card finally received after I had to telephone CIC to chase it. Took 2 weeks since my phone call for it to turn up. If your card hasn't arrived beyond the estimated dates, phone them. I was going to SK so don't know if it's only that regional office that was stretched.

    As per my prior posts, nothing arrived since May 25th, for an application with a representative in Canada, with a Canadian mailing address (I'm currently back in my home country). From outside the Canada I called the +1 613 944 4000 number (the menu system has changed a bit). They did not ask...

    New PR card

    Landed May 25th... as of Sept 15th, still no PR card delivered to my Canada address. I have returned to my home country to complete packing up, and now considering applying for a PR Travel Document instead of calling CIC from the UK and maybe complicating the process. Luckily I did get my...

    Add common-law spouse after COPR letter, but prior to Landing.

    Further to this, I have contacted my visa lawyer, and they have recommended that I land in Canada before myself and my girlfriend meet the one year co-habitation requirement for common law status. Once I am a landed immigrant, I can sponsor her to join me in Canada. It is important that I land...

    Add common-law spouse after COPR letter, but prior to Landing.

    Thank you Scylla. Do you happen to know if the common law is not proven, whether my 'single' COPR would be revoked?

    Add common-law spouse after COPR letter, but prior to Landing.

    When I started the FSW process, I considered myself single. However, now since I have been issued my COPR letter (but prior to landing!) I have been living with my long-term girlfriend. The expiry date of the COPR is in November 2015. It shows my marital status as Single. There was some...

    Passport requested by Visa Office - but vacation in 5 weeks :(

    I like your optimism! :) Thanks Have reached out to representative for further advice. With Xmas and New Year too I do not expect they will be quicker than 5 weeks. I know the loss of a vacation is only money, though Japan is kind of once in a lifetime. Appreciate your response.

    Passport requested by Visa Office - but vacation in 5 weeks :(

    Any advice from applicants who have already progressed their 2014 application please. Just been requested to send my passport to the Visa Office, and failure to do so by 9th of January may result in high risk of refusal of application. Unfortunately I'm going on a 'once in a lifetime' trip to...

    Reference: Prove 10 years continuous employ, but via three entities.

    Thanks for reading this. Briefly, I have 10 years continuous service with CCompany, because they have bought out my previous employer(s). But they are unable to fill in some information for a period of joint venture where there are no distinctive records - should I not consider a joint...
