Hey guys!

I'm planning on doing my landing this weekend. Here's the documents I'm going to take with me.

- Passport (obv)
- COPR
- Proof of current address
- 3 month Bank statements
- All study permits/work permit
- Pay stubs

Is there anything else that I have missed?

I have a similar situation as you. I am travelling on Dec 21st with tickets already purchased back in June. I landed on Sep 29 and it will be a month this 29th. I sent my ticket copy with the passports and got my passports back in 20 days.

During landing, I asked the officer if I can have urgent processing for PR card and he said that everyone wants urgent processing, in other words he said no...so I did not argue with him. Actually urgent processing is only available to those who are applying for renewal or have lost it as per CIC website. Anyways last week I sent a letter to PR card processing Center in Sydney, NS mentioning that I purchased my tickets even before getting PR status and requested them to consider my case.

Normal processing time as of 23rd October is 54 calendar days now (7 weeks and 5 days). At this pace, I should get it by November end but just for safe side I sent the letter. The processing time is decreasing weekly. The first time i saw it was 70 days, week later it was 63, then 61 and now 54.
I guess the end of strike has made all this processing speed possible.

I would suggest you to do the same thing and hope for the best. Land as soon as you get ur ppts. Don't waste even a single day.
I got my PR visa and my COPR on monday. Both have expired date on middle of next year so I have decided to do my trip on December and do landing when I come back to Canada in January. Thank you for the advise!!

Cheers!! 8)

Can we do the landing while being on implied status?
You can do the landing on any status or no status, that's what the Immigrant Visa is for.
