IRCC will never stop to surprise me, while waiting for PR process I had a visitor visa and work permit in process for my spouse and surprisingly they approved my spouse work permit after our PR had already been approved. Lol , I guess that’s their way of saying we can’t refund your money. Lol
When did you apply for spouse open work permit

Hello guys,I have a question
How do you think
When the IRCC sent a letter “in order to make a decision complete the sons biometric in 30 days”
We did it two days ago
Is this a good sign after long silence?

Kinda! Even I have recieved a request on gc key saying inorder to make a decision on your file please confirm your employers adress as they couldn't see office on Google Street view(because my boss operates from home office) and I confirmed on 16th October. On October 26th I recieved my gcms notes saying final decision* approved* on 21st. I am exited and waiting for that to be updated on gc key

I applied CEC class and added my spouse after AOR , as the application process going on this time they just request for spouse (dependent) exactly


"This is in reference to your application for permanent residence in Canada. In order for us to continue the processing of your application, we require the following documents:

> Passport photos: Passport size photographs (photographs must conform to the specifications outlined in the Guide to Immigrating IMM 3999 and Appendix B Photo Specifications) This must be received at this office by: 2021/11/07"

Any idea regarding this ?


as there is only one upload box available on portal .

is it good sign to the PR ?

Two days back I landing in Canada on work permit and I was about to update my change of address through webform. Today I got passport request for myself and my wife. Now I will be updating IRCC that I am in Canada. What will happen next? Should we wait till I get some reply or we can go ahead with passport submission for my dependent wife who is India. Appreciate your help here. Thanks in advance
