Thanks a lot for the clarification. He was not present 153/183 following the April date when he applied, he had to travel for work in July, August, and September. Thanks for the link. We took a look at https://www.ontario.ca/laws/regulation/r09133, in particular Would he be considered a...

Much better to wait for the full 730 physical presence in Canada I remember that only biopage is needed, but check the requirements when you apply not that I remember I did it in the summer, when the processing time was 71 days. It took nearly exactly that long - but I did it online, rather than...

a) Yes, I think "Other" is what applies to you. The other choices should be "Working for a Canadian company abroad", "Accompanying a citizen working for a Canadian company abroad", "Accompanying a PR working for a Canadian company abroad", which none applies to you. b) 3 days in that example is...

@rcincanada2019 Thanks a lot! His main doubt was that he satisfied the 153 out of 183 days rule during January-July 2023, instead of August 2022-January 2023 which were the 6 months immediately after he arrived in ON. So, if I understood correctly, this is not an issue?

Hello, A friend of mine got a job in ON, and arrived on Aug. 1st, 2022. His moved his primary residence to ON (rental, utilities, bank accounts, car plate, insurance, etc. are all at his ON address), and fully meant to stay 153 out the first 183 days. However, his job required him to travel...

Thanks!

Thanks for the clarification!

Thanks a lot @armoured and @Ponga for the information! Just to be extra careful, would the expired Canadian PR card pose any issue when entering the US (of course I have a valid US visa)?

Hello, I have an urgent work related travel to the US in mid April. My PR card will be expired by then, and in process of renewal (however I can't count on it to be completed by mid April). I plan thus to drive, using my car, to the US, and back to Canada. I was under the impression that...

Thanks a lot!

Hello, My mother will come in Canada in March. I'd have some questions about OHIP: When to apply? From what I understood one has to stay 153 in the first 183 days in Ontario. Can she apply, for example on day 1, if she plans 153 days in the next 183 days? What happens if one stays outside...

Hello, My mother's case has been approved (yay!). She has to send the relevant docs (passport, photos, IRCC letter, VAC Consent Form and fees, and Updated Client Information Chart). I'd like to ask if anyone has experience at VAC Rome (Italy), and whether it is possible to mail in the docs. On...

Hi, my "hukou registration at birth" ("出生登记") worked. IRCC has approved it.

Hello, I got an additional document request from IRCC. We collected the documents, and submitted by email (to IRCC.CPCMParentsandGrandparents-Parentsetgrands-parentsCTDM.IRCC@cic.gc.ca). Does anyone has experience submitting via email? Is it reliable, or should we also submit an additional copy...

Thanks!
