Guys, Please help.
The last communication I had with CIC was to send the Schedule A and new PCC in May. No emails after that.
Last week I moved to Helsinki (Finland) for next 6 months from India. Should I send the email to CIC asking to update the address and Embassy location?
I am sure some of us must have faced similar situation. Please advise what should I do.

I would. Otherwise, you will have to travel back, wait for the stamping to complete and then return. I am guessing you are there for work so it will help overall.

I decided to book an appointment with local CIC office. It didn't take that long and I didn't have to travel all the way to the US border. Got my documents and a new SIN on the spot. Took less than 30 minutes overall.

I called CIC call centre on June 2nd to initiate the booking process. I received the appointment email from CIC Etobicoke on June 9th for a June 17th appointment. Just take your passport, previous work permit, COPR and printout of CIC Etobicoke's appointment email with you. And your SIN card too, they will give you a new SIN number right there.

Hi Guys,

Does anyone know what is the next step after all required steps are passed? My criminality and security, medical and eligibility are all passed, however, I don't know why CIC does not send me PPR? :'( :'(
Does anyone have the same status as me?

where should i updated the address. Is it in
1. ECAS or
2. report changes in your address via the web form: https://secure.cic.gc.ca/enquiries-renseignements/canada-case-cas-eng.aspx.

or is anything fine?

I had my notes sometime back with application due date, cic agent told me that it's the date your file will be picked/looked at for further actions.
