    Seeking Input: Simplify Your Residency Tracking with an App

    Hello everyone! I’m excited to share an idea that I believe could significantly simplify life for those counting citizenship days or PR days. I’m considering developing a simple application designed to track your residency days, tailored to meet the specific eligibility conditions of various...

    Citizenship Application - Immigration Status Section - Pakistan Origin Card (POC)

    Hi Everyone, So I've begun making some citizenship applications - I'm really glad that the online application exists, it's been a relatively smooth process so far. Too smooth to be honest, I'm hoping there's no hiccups up ahead but I guess I won't know till after the AoR. I'm really only...

    Receipt Expiry

    Hey guys, just wondering if the receipt we use for any applications (renewals in my case) ever expire? I had an application returned by IRCC last year which I haven't yet mailed back in and it's essentially requiring a re-do of everything since it's been so long. I'll still send the original...

    Expired PR currently overseas taking Continuing Education Courses at a college

    Hi Everyone, thanks for the responses.. haven't been on here in a while. So just to be clear, the H&C grounds are related to the PR Renewal application and not the educational courses. I understand that COVID alone isn't a good enough reason for renewal, there's a whole backstory to the...

    Expired PR currently overseas taking Continuing Education Courses at a college

    Hey everyone, I just wanted to ask what the legality of taking Continuing Education Courses at a college are with an expired PR card. The card only expired this year and COVID is the reason the person couldn't enter Canada again before the card expired. The card will be attempted to be renewed...

    September 2020 PR Renewal Applicants

    I am a little concerned that I still haven't seen the card has been shipped out, how long do you guys think I should give it before expecting a response. Based on the stuff I've read here, I feel like it should have updated by now :-/

    September 2020 PR Renewal Applicants

    I think you'd be better off maybe calling an immigration lawyer for this one, or maybe check some other sub-forums related to employment here. The IRCC site only goes as far as mentioning a job opportunity for urgent processing. I don't think it matters whether the company is Canadian or...

    Will do, I’ve actually been on DECISION MADE since yesterday (Monday) I think, maybe even Sunday. I’m hoping it changes to COMPLETE sometime this week.

    Days Tracking Spreadsheet + Letter of Explanation Templates

    Sure thing! I agree to a certain extent, in my case I’m more wary of storing sensitive-ish data online but to each their own in that regard. Just trying to have some fun while making these templates haha, converting the spreadsheet and laying out its instructions wasn’t as easy as I imagined :oops:

    Days Tracking Spreadsheet + Letter of Explanation Templates

    Hi everyone, so I'm not sure if this is everyone's cup of tea but I've been keeping track of my days spent in Canada on a spreadsheet I made a couple of years ago. It's much easier for me personally to have the file on my local computer instead of having to login to Canada's government site...

    PR Card (New/Renewal) Processing Timeline 2020

    Yeah, the form can be a pain especially with compatibility. Perfectly alright to write it in pen later, I mean you have to mail in a signed physical application so combining typing and pen isn't an issue. You can try to format it like this: - UCI is ####-#### - Phone is (###) ###-#### *I...

    PR Card (New/Renewal) Processing Timeline 2020

    1. You can leave it empty 2. Just the extra section needs to be filled out 3. I think (and what I do personally) is that they only care about your exiting and entering Canada, so you can group everything as one for when you left and when you next returned. The specifics for traveling don't...

    September 2020 PR Renewal Applicants

    I'm hoping that on your newer urgent application you mentioned that you sent one in September so as to avoid any confusion. As a future reference, I'm not 100% about this but I'm quite sure that you can let the IRCC know that you'd like to make an application you've mailed in already, don't know...

    PR Card (New/Renewal) Processing Timeline 2020

    Good question, I think in your case in work history you can put just the one title and the length you've been doing it (the start being the day your counting days began and end being PRESENT) and for the work address you can probably say Freelance - Based at Home Addresses (see above).. to refer...

    September 2020 PR Renewal Applicants

    Not yet, like I said, 1-2 weeks is when I expect it to show up. That's based on what you're saying, people from the first weeks of September have been getting their AoRs. Personally, I've never gotten a confirmation e-mail from the IRCC, not even in my junk mail. So I usually just follow the...
