Hmm... I was pretty sure I was told to wait until I get my PR card before getting a new SIN. You had no issues getting a permanent SIN with just the COPR?

Well, I ended up applying to change my conditions on paper in early September. Never heard back on that, but ended up becoming a PR on Dec. 3rd, so I don’t really need to remove that restriction anymore anyways:-)

Well, I don’t think you can actually get approved before the interview. So just hang in there - you’ll probably get more info soon :-)

Yes, you definitely do. You neeed to update CIC with any major changes to your situation - and having a baby is definitely a pretty major life event. If you have a representative, you should probably reach out to them and they will know what to do. Otherwise I believe you would do it through...

I just got an e-mail from the local IRCC office for an interview on December 12th! :D Looks like things are moving along nicely. Application received: Feb 8th, 2018 AOR received: March 6th, 2018 OWP approved: May 18th, 2018 Medical request received: N/A (did it upfront) Medical done: July 13th...

Woke up to DM on both sides on ecas! However, if I click on the DMs the statuses are the same as before, except one of them now says that they started processing the application on Nov. 27th

I logged into my GC account and there was an update - they started reviewing my eligibility! :D

Okay, thanks! No wonder it can take a while for the cards to get there since they’re all essentially being issued at the same place!

Does anybody know if the PR card gets sent from your local IRCC office or the CPC where your PR application was processed?

DM stands for “Decision Made” :) It seems like it’s different case to case, but I believe the review of eligibility is the step before that.

Nice - congratulations! Looks like you will be a PR by Christmas! ;)

Mine could be in anytime now :eek: lol I’m Feb. 8th... fingers crossed for some sort of correspondence this week :p

Not to bring anybody’s hopes down, since everybody’s case is different, but I’ve been trying to get those restrictions removed from my OWP since I passed my medical in July. I went to the airport, border, tried calling CBSA and IRCC and it all came down to me only having the option of applying...

You can definitely apply inland on a visitor visa - just make sure you also apply for the OWP and that your visitor status does not expire before you get your OWP. But once you get your OWP you will be of status as a temporary resident until your PR application is complete. Unless your passport...

Feb 8th here. Nothing since medical passed - still just processing the background check. I’m curious... since you had to submit additional documents, what does it say in your background check? Is it still processing, or is that where it says they’re reviewing additional documents?
