it took 200 days from when they received the application to PPR for mine. You can see my timeline for more specific details. :)

congrats Dralon! I've kept checking back to see when you'd finally get PR! Now I think its only adetia9 that's left, no? Do you think the media attention did anything?

I know all the provinces do it differently, but I can explain how it works here in Quebec. After the very first year a person has been in the province they have to reapply for RAMQ (same thing as OHIP) to show that they are still in the province. After this first time of reapplying, it is not...

I think that they requested the FBI report simply out of habit since its a US office. I would send a fax or case-specific email to the office and try to get a response. But if its been that long and he hasn't heard from them, they are probably waiting for the FBI report to come in, so I would...

I was merely stating the difference in timelines, which is quite significant from 2 months to 8 months. :)

well that's if its inland. If its outland processing, you pay as soon as the sponsorship is approved and you send in your paperwork to MICC. You'll know that they've started working on your paperwork once the credit card gets charged. It can take around a month from the time they receive...

since you have your AOR and labels, go ahead and send it now. Write on the outside of the envelope that it contains additional proof along with the label and all your info on the outside as well as on the inside. A month after sending in more proof I received a letter stating that no...

you can file outland without leaving Canada, and this will give you the right to appeal.

well like QCsunshine says its depends on outland or inland. BUT there is another thing to remember; the classes only start about every few months and you have to go through a placement interview and wait for a place to become available. In the meantime there are often low cost places (45$ for...

I would suggest stopping by the Canadian side before crossing into the US and see if you can get any information out of them. There will be a place to stop for exporting goods outside of Canada, though it might be hard to see or nonexistent in small border crossings. If you bring along a...

I'm not sure where in Québec you are but there are other places that aren't through the government that have very very cheap classes that you can take in the meantime while you are waiting for your PR. I took/am taking classes at Centre du Phénix in Québec City for only 45$ There are several...

they charge you when you start being processed, you should be getting a letter soon (though in my case it was the whole file sent back to me since I forgot one little check mark)

you shouldn't need to send your CSQ to Singapore, because MICC is supposed to do that for you. The CSQ is what you use to sign up for healthcare and other provincial things. However, in very rare cases, like Dralon's, MICC never sends the ok to the outside CIC office. So if you want to be...

an entry stamp on your passport to a different country would also be fine, but I've never had them want anything more than a verbal answer. You're not in danger of losing your status, so I'm am sure that a verbal answer is all you'll need!

declare both and write a letter/note explaining each and why they were done. we were officially married with just the two of us and then had another ceremony for the family several months later (while the application was already in process). We just mailed in the extra evidence once our 2nd...

here's my PR card timeline: Landed 28th of September and received my card today, the 8th of November. However the card was issued on the 2nd. Hope that helps someone out :)

I landed on September 28th and just received my PR card today in the mail. The card is dated November 2nd though...

yes you run the risk of being denied entry, but the more important question is, will your wife regret it for the rest of her life if she's not there at her mother's deathbed? Applications can be refiled, but being there for a loved one at the time of death cannot...

you can't claim discrimination <<yet>> I know you're getting frustrated that there are people flying through the process, but not everyone gets processed at the same speed. I got my AOR in mid June and didn't get PPR until 3 months and 3 days later. You've only hit 2.5 months. Look at...

Moscow. What happens is the when it gets to Moscow, they'll send you a letter with barcode stickers to use on the outside of an envelope when mailing it in. This is your Acknowledgment of Receipt (AOR). The letter will have the proper address to send it in as well. You must wait until you...
