    Canadian Citizen with PR spouse - Critical Immigration Questions

    There is an extremely low chance that you will not have to pick up the cards in person. You don’t have a Canadian residential address so there shouldn’t be a valid address to send the cards if you are being honest. I would be planning on having to return to Canada both to apply for PR card...

    PR Residency Obligation Question - Short Trip outside of Canada Before Completing 730 Days

    As long as you are on track to meet the 730 days within 5 year you are fine. You have understood the RO requirement for the first 5 years correctly. The bigger issue is that birth and newborns are unpredictable so you may end up staying out of Canada for a much longer period of time.

    If that is the case your background checks are likely done. You are nearing the final stage of processing but there still could be a significant backlog ahead of you so that will determine how fast your application is completed. What will slow down processing is not the actual work needed to...

    I received Web form enquiry reply I wonder if my application rewinded since I completed everything required , From my side anyone else share with me

I am saying you if you have completed background checks you are likely in line for final decision and after they you will be in line for PPR. Nobody is going to...

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

    Prearrival means you have passed eligibility. The name is very confusing and does not mean that you are close to the end of processing. If not part of the pilot program and being processed in Accra which is known to be slow it may take years.

    I received Web form enquiry reply I wonder if my application rewinded since I completed everything required , From my side anyone else share with me

    Prearrival doesn’t actually mean anything it is purely procedural and happens after eligibility. Have you passed on the background checks? What office is processing your application? You are experiencing fairly normal processing. There are still many 2022 applicants who have not received a...
