Good question for the US embassy. everyone that i now apply for us visa gets 10 years..


and visa cannot be transferred you have to apply for a new one. LOL more money for them but its not expensive so its not a big deal.
so everytime we renew RTD we have to apply a new one. We cant use the expired RTD with a new one to show we have Valid US VISA

So with an RTD how did you get the schengen visa? Do you need an invitation? How long is your schengen visa valid for?

citizenship ceremony is different than PR . People are suffering bcoz they are missing their family. if don't have citizenship, cannot vote for election& get passport ,ect . these are not impotent in pandemic

Bro, we are the same situation but there's really nothing we can do to. It's a waiting game and it will be over someday.

I sleep every day on this hope maybe morning I will wake up and open my email and found some thing from IRCC that my PR improved and ready to get PR card

You have to try not to expect it and put your mind in something else. You have to try to put all your anxiety towards God because depression is the last thing you DON'T need now.

Most people here have families overseas. I have a different question. I applied for PR, and Only I am a protected person. My son has a study permit, and my wife has a work permit, and we always extended them until now. They are in my PR application. Does it mean if I survive this catastrophe and get PR, they will get their PR simultaneously?

Yes if you already added them to your application by sponsoring them

When renewing RTD, IRCC request the old travel document to cancel, and they ask if you need it back after cancellation or not, along with the new travel document

Effective today at 23:59 ET, foreign nationals who are immediate family members of Canadian citizens or permanent residents will be exempt from travel restrictions if they are entering to be with their immediate family member for a period of 15 days or more.

Does this concern our category?

Background consists of security and Criminality.... The reason for this delay is your security.... They couldn't verify your information.. Did you get the finger prints or did they asked you for a police clearance before?
