    Need advice on PRTD possibility

    Would speak to a lawyer because this is a fairly risky move. The majority of the time was spent in the US not in India caring for your father. You also have very little time spent in Canada since landing as a PR. You would need to be in Canada to apply for a PR card and would need to pick it...

    Standard processing time only is for 80% of cases. There have always been cases with longer processing times.

    Are You Facing Delays at Abu Dhabi office? Join Us!

    It isn’t necessarily sitting it is either in line for a background check or is waiting for other parties to respond to Canada’s request for information. There are files from certain countries which almost always have longer background checks. If there is concern about your relationship or you...

    Inquiry Regarding CEC Immigration and Employment Verification

    IRCC typically wants to see ties to Quebec severed because once he gets PR he would likely be tempted to go back to QC if required to go into the office twice a week. Where exactly is the job and where will he be moving to? If the job is in Hull/Gatineau/etc. and he is living in greater Ottawa...

    CEC work experience for Canada-based cross-border truck drivers

    Yes IRCC typically counts the whole trip as Canadian work experience but just for cases like long haul truck drivers. You may want to consult an immigration lawyer to verify.

    Does full-time AZ truck driving school affect CEC work experience?

    There are multiple potential issues. You were studying full-time without a study permit after spending time in Canada not right after entering Canada. Yes work while you were studying full-time may be an issue if you are attempting to count time working towards CEC. I would recommend you speak...

    Applying for pr card renewal for my mother online

    She should have her own email address even if you apply as her representative. Assume she is currently in Canada if she is applying.

    Working Holiday (IEC) + Open Work Permit for spouse

    Would add you and your son will have to try to enter as visitors and your entry is not guaranteed especially if it appears as though you are trying to move to Canada. Your wife should really come to Canada and see if she can find a job that would make you eligible for an SOWP and that you have...

    The one-time 2-year initiative regarding 115,000 protected persons

    Whether inside or outside Canada it doesn’t matter when you have a target for the number of PRs/yr. When IRCC exceeds that 380k target that they keep mentioned when they say they have decreased the number of PRs it will certainly matter to many Canadians. Your claim that there will be more than...

    H&C 2025 SHARE - AIP, Letters, PR, Refused or Approved

    Will wait for a response but not most from 2024 have not received AIP approval/refusal. H&C is no longer a functional program and IRCC seems to be hoping that people will leave or get removed while waiting because processing is decades.

    Parents & Grandparents Program(PGP) 2024

    There is a long list of people who have received FD but are waiting for P1 or COPR. Not sure how long this list is but it. could take up to many months.

    Parents & Grandparents Program(PGP) 2024

    There is no FD until her passes his completes his background checks.

    Physical Presence & Previous Valid Status Question

    If you weren’t actively studying and not meeting the conditions of your study permit I would be more concerned that you were in Canada without status in 2021/22. IRCC was fairly lax going after people for not meeting the condition of their permits then but that is no longer the case.

    Regd 5 year eligibility period

    Given the current relationship between Canada and the US and the anti-immigrant sentiment from the current US administration Canadian permanent residents should probably revisit their plans/strategy when it comes to when they apply for Canadian citizenship and also have a back-up plan if they...
