    PR card

    Send a webform but at that time you will have to admit that you are abroad so you technically can’t get the PR card. Your only option is to apply for the card when you permanently move to Canada

    Restoration to SOWP

    They want to accumulate more WP in the hopes that more work experience will allow them to qualify for PR like this case. In other cases people think they will receive an ITA very soon and want to have status and want to be able to apply for a BOWP. Either way the program is being abused. Many...

    Canadian PR Entry Concerns: Crossing Canada border with Family from Detroit USA without meeting Residency Obligation

    The issue is that it likely won’t give you information about whether IRCC will move forward with trying to repeal your PR applications. If your case was referred to IRCC there is a good chance it may just be sitting in a pile somewhere because of backlogged cases. These cases can move extremely...

    PR card

    That may be the issue. You may have to wait and apply for a PR card after you enter Canada. PR cards are only supposed to be issued to people within Canada.

    Overseas spouse and dependents of protected person and convention refugee timeline - Share here

    The pre-arrival letters are very confusing to people and I wish they would change the name. Pre-arrival letters have nothing to do with when you might actually get PR. It is a procedural step after eligibility.

    Super visa - may 2026

    Normal procedure and means nothing in terms of approval/refusal.

    PR card

    That may be due to the fact that you are not in Canada. Are you in Canada now?

    Visitor visa to Canada - hold U.S. multiple entry visa

    How long will they be visiting the US? Just processing a TRV and getting it stamped may take multiple months although could be shorter. There is a good chance they also may need their passport while in the US and would be risky to submit it to the Canadian embassy for stamping even if approved...

    PR (Permanent Resident) applied from Quebec in April 2023 as a Refugee (Protected Person) and now it’s 2026

    One webform. Multiple webforms does not help in a short period of time.

    Visitor visa for my wife's parents (we are seperated however)

    If you are no longer in a relationship and living separately you are no longer functioning as a family unit. You can certainly attempt to use your income but you must specify that you are separately and not living together. There is nothing forcing you to support her parents longterm if you...

    Super Visa first and the sponsorship second

    The supervisa may be refused out of concern he will claim asylum on arrival or not return home. You should certainly apply if you qualify. Realistically you should not count on being able to sponsor your parent. The program has been closed to new applications since 2020. There are hundreds of...

    2024 asylum claimants, Share timeline here

    Fairly common wait time these days as the backlog has grown. I am sure many will be waiting 3+ years for a hearing if they are not waiting that long already.

    My dad Applied for OAS/GIS application, got approved while overseas, what should we do?

    Pointless to argue. The government contacts you in advance of the 10 year anniversary to tell you that you now qualify for OAS based on you having indicated that you have lived in Canada for 10 years so not sure why there was a doubt that he would qualify and he did apply so he should have been...

    My dad Applied for OAS/GIS application, got approved while overseas, what should we do?

    Not quite since OP was still debating why they wouldn’t qualify after the information was posted. Given that being able to sponsor your parent is equivalent to winning the lottery most families seem to apply for every benefit available as soon as possible and sadly many do not follow the...

    Travelling while applying for family class living in Canada

    There is always a risk you will not be able to enter Canada as a visitor so up to you to decide your risk tolerance but in general if you can show the extra funds to be able to visit Canada without needing to work risk level is fairly low.
