Hello, My husband is planning to land soon. He will be arriving by air to Pearson. Is it recommended to bring expensive items such as jewelry, laptops etc during his first entry? Or should he just bring a list of items? Please advise. Thanks

We sent a Canada Post pre-paid envelope, but they still mailed it to us by Regular mail. They sent it by regular mail on Feb 28th, and we received the passport on Mar 12th, so 8-9 business days. You should hopefully receive by March 20th.

Can someone please advise on the process of things you need to do after receiving CoPR to land in Ontario. My husband is flying to Toronto. He will be here for a few days and then return to US. We will officially move in a few weeks after wrapping up apartment, job etc. We will be moving our car...

Does anyone know how the COPR expiry date is calculated? Is it linked to the medical date or the application submission date? Thanks!

We got Medical received mid October (18th I think). We applied on April 5, 2013. But since we are not from a visa exempt country, our timelines may not align with others.

Just checked my ECAS. They started processing our application on Feb 20th and we got PPR on Feb 20th as well. Also says decision made. Will send our passport on Monday (not from visa exempt country). Please update the file. Thanks! Permanent Residence We received your application for permanent...

Here is the directions we got in the PPR email. Can someone please advise on passport mailing procedure? Thanks so much for your help. If you have a mailing address in the United States: To allow you to track your passports through the mail, we strongly recommend that you purchase a pre-paid...

Thanks NicAnn. Our situation is a bit different as my husband is not a US Citizen, hence the long PPR wait time. We are just relieved to receive PPR. Will start worrying about COPR after we mail our passport, LOL!

We received our PPR today - such a relief. Can see the light at the end of the tunnel now. Can someone please update on the spreadsheet? Thanks!

It is really hard to try and be patient. We applied in April and received sponsor approval in April end. Our status online says application received. In October they updated the medical results. Anxiously awaiting for even a passport request. Our GCMS notes don't have any red flags and they...

I am an April applicant, and we have still not received a passport request. We received GCMS notes in early December and there were no red flags. Ordered another set of notes last week. ECAS still says Application received; medical results were added; ECAS was last updated Oct 18th. Really...

Thanks for clarifying. We applied on April 5, 2013. Unfortunately have not received a Passport request yet. GCMS notes look good, but it seems that they just havent started our Security/Criminal piece. So wasn't sure how the "In Process" ties to the Passport Request. Btw, did you send them a...

Congratulations timelady! Question - What does it mean that they started processing on December 6th? If they already sent you PPR in Oct, doesn't this mean that they started the process back in October?

We received sponsorship approval on April 25th. It has been almost 7 months now, but we have not heard anything from them. Most people have received their COPR by now. We are really worried but don't want to bug them. Even if they contact us with anything, it will be a sense of relief that our...

Can someone please add us to the spreadsheet - Application Submitted: April 3, 2013 Application Received: April 5, 2013 Sponsorship Approval: April 25, 2013 Medical Results Received: October 21, 2013

Congratulations Nexus2013..!!!

Sorry for not articulating my thoughts correctly. You are right that US H1 Visa has no relation to the Canadian PR.

That's amazing! Thanks for clarifying. My husband is on H1 work permit and will have to get his H1 stamped once he enters Canada as a PR. Waiting for our PR so we can see each other again.

I have a really stupid question. How could you cross the border after getting PPR? I thought PPR meant - PassPort Request. So once you submitted your passport, how could you travel across the border?
