    PRTD (R-1 instead of RC-1), Entry to Canada, and PR Status

    Still strange you got approved at your age. Think the 4 year processing had something to do with it. That is much longer than the up to 1 year we typically see.

    PRTD (R-1 instead of RC-1), Entry to Canada, and PR Status

    Up to the province for health card. Not sure if ordering VOS will trigger RO.

    PR under Ukraine Family Reunification Public Policy

    Would suggest asking if anyone with AOR in December, January, etc. AOR is likely more important than when you sent in your application to determine where you are in the queue.

    PR under Ukraine Family Reunification Public Policy

    Any movement is a good sign but it really depends on how many people are in front of you in the queue because processing times for this program can be up to decades depending on when you applied and how many people are ahead of you.

    PRTD (R-1 instead of RC-1), Entry to Canada, and PR Status

    Were you 17 in 2015 or 2022? Either way you got extremely lucky getting a PRTD given your limited establishment in Canada. You essentially visited Canada with your family and left. The other big issue is getting a health card. You will likely be unable to apply for a health card in your...

    Super Visa: Include Parent’s Financials & Property or Not?

    Would post under the visitor section. Generally it would be best to include proof of ties to a home country like a home and savings because visitors are expected to return home. Proof that parent(s) have ties to their home country and savings will always be helpful.

    2026 PR application timeline

    You’re right there will be a certain group of protected people and refugees that will hit a sweet spot and get processed faster than the previous years before processing times start increasing again. Time to receive AOR has very little to do with overall processing time.

    How long will background check take? I’m from Pakistan.

    Extremely variable although applicants from Pakistan tend to have longer than average processing times.

    London transit with RTD

    Will you remain in the same terminal? Travel booked under one trip? How long is the transit? Overnight?

    2026 PR application timeline

    That wouldn’t impact time to AOR. The one time policy only just started so shouldn’t have major impact on 2026 applications. Will have an impact on overall processing time at least for those who are already in the queue but the processing times will likely increase again after due to the volume...

    US B1/B2 Visa Questions

    Since Trump has come back into office securing a visa as a protected person or refugee has become much harder. This may change under another administration.

    Case ineligible due to bill C-12

    An H&C does not prevent removal. In the past removals were often put on hold when an active H&C application had been made but that is no longer the case. Once you apply for H&C it will still be processed while outside Canada. Processing is decades so unless a decision is imminent H&C is no...

    Iranian on visitor visa, stuck in Canada because of war. Options?

    Only good option on your list is visitor record. Do they have a US visa? They can’t flagpole. As long as they apply for a visitor record before their current stay expires they have implied status. Make sure to also extend their travel medical insurance or if you haven’t purchased any you should.

    Visitor record never arrived. Re entry options

    If they stayed past their authorized stay they likely need to do another medical. How long did they stay their last visit?

    Employment Letter format for visit visa

    Any letter of employment should be consistent and expect IRCC to reference employment letter from TRV for PR. Unless you know French or work in a few select professions (mainly healthcare) it will be very difficult to secure PR from abroad without Canadian work experience. For your TRV it is...
