Update: spouse landed Sep 7, and we got the PR card in the mail today. A little earlier than expected.

They asked for my driver’s licence and that was about it. They didn’t even ask me to sign anything - just the applicant.

I feel the same. :D Let us know how the interview goes, we are scheduled on the 7th :)

Thanks, everyone! Here's our timeline: App Received: April 29, 2016 AOR: June 1, 2016 (sponsor) ; June 29, 2016 (applicant) Medical Request: May 31, 2017 AIP: June 8, 2017 SA: June 9, 2017 Landing Letter Received: August 28, 2017 Landing Date: September 7, 2017 No DM letter yet.. MyCIC says...

my spouse just received a letter via email.. "Dear Client(s), Your final determination for permanent residence interview has been scheduled at the above address on 7th September, 2017 at 9:00-10:00AM" Is this for landing interview?

Finally an update (App submitted Apr 29): Online account says medical passed.. took them 2 months and a week after medical was done. hoping for a DM soon.

That's my concern.. applicant side only shows one line: "We received your application..." There used to be a line for when they started processing the app. We applied in April 2016 and it seems like this is just dragging *sighs*

hey guys, does anybody know why ECAS is not showing more details than just "We received your application blah blah blah" (applicant). Sponsor side has more info, "We started processing your app blah" We have received DM for sponsor, AIP, medical request (done a month ago, submitted proof as...

Thanks to everyone who responded! I guess we'll have to pay $400 for the entire thing, then. CIC's wording wasn't very clear stating that x-ray and blood work are required. I was hoping we would be able to skip that part and save $$$ :p

Hello everyone, Quick question for people who have submitted/gone through medical: Are chest x-rays, lab tests, etc. required? According to CIC's website: "They may refer you for chest x-rays and laboratory tests." Did everyone submit everything? The clinic in our city will do everything for...

Did anyone here request GCMS notes around end of October last year? We never received ours and we're thinking of requesting again.

Passport and the actual OWP, at least that's what we provided last Sunday. But we only visited the U.S.

Hello, fellow Albertan! Don't worry about the $100 - not sure if somebody informed you already but that $100 is a payment from Alberta government that's supposed to offset the extra cost of the new carbon tax. I was surprised to see that as well that's why I did some research.

great news from CIC today :D NOW.. if only the FBI can finally mail my spouse's police check, it'd be great so CIC can continue their work on our file. ::)

Yes, Canadian. Sorry for not being more specific there and thanks for the prompt response. Follow up question, I read that airline staff check if a person has the appropriate documents to travel to Canada, when does this happen? I'm just worried that we wouldn't have enough time to catch our...

Hello everyone! My spouse and I are planning to visit U.S next month. She has a valid OWP but expired TRV. I have read that she can still enter Canada provided that we only visit the U.S. My question is, when and where does she clear customs and immigration? Is it before we board the plane to...

Super! Thank you, polarvocano!

Hey guys. My spouse's sister is inviting us to spend Chritsmas in the U.S. Her OWP is valid until 2018 BUT her single entry visa has been used and expired months ago. I read that if you are only going to the U.S, you don't need a valid visa to come back to Canada. Now, if I understand...

thank you!

How did you notify CIC? Through CSE? We got the PCC request Aug 10 as well and we haven't heard back from FBI. Deadline is coming up :-[
