    Update - and More Questions on PR Card Renewal and Situation B Previous Post

    Actually it's a bit vague... considering the original topic of this thread, the current OP might be claiming that PR card applications for spouses of Canadian citizens living overseas - who meet RO only by being with the citizen - are being handled by the same folks who handle H&C PR cards, the...

    PR card recalled and seized?

    If not for my personal experience, I'd be inclined to agree with this completely. As it is, I'd be happy to agree with it with one modification - either extra credit should be given for time spent after being approved in principle (e.g. when passport request is made) or else - with the sole...

    Canadian Citizen - H1B - Staying in US

    Usually if the visa is valid and the passport is expired then the visa is still good if you show both passports. Even if visa expired , the expired original is proof that you used to have that status

    Canadian Citizen - H1B - Staying in US

    This would be ideal but usually they can match it up even if the visa is e.g. in an old passport or something. Can you at least bring the sticker itself too in the old one?

    Study Permit related

    1. The law allows you to return. CBSA officers can always raise concerns, but my guess is the fact that you have a valid extension in process probably makes this easier - the permit expiry isn't when you're required to leave as the extension process would have pushed that back. 2. That should...

    Residency obligation

    Not sure if all of these reasons apply to OP (though likely the last one does), but definitely agreed - in general these seem like good reasons to consider a PRTD under H&C vs going through the land border. Agreed. Some do seem to luck out and get multi-entry PRTDs - which would be another way...

    Residency obligation

    I guess I'm wondering why you changed your mind. I'd still think that entering via land border is still safest. I have to disagree here. If the PRTD is rejected then the PR status is lost and other options (like trying the land border) are no longer possible. See...

    Query on PR card renewal

    To add to this good comment and the other good comments about PNP, I'd also like point out what's probably obvious - in addition to moving to Quebec after getting PR from elsewhere, those folks who somehow obtain PR via Express Entry while living in Quebec but promising to live elsewhere as PRs...

    Residency obligation

    I think it's not so much that OP wants it revoked, but is worried that even if a PRTD is successfully obtained, that going back to Canada and applying for a PR card may cause PR to still get flagged and eventually revoked. Normally, one would expect that if a PRTD were approved on H&C grounds...

    PR card renewal - incomplete

    I wonder if there is a difference between applying online vs paper (i.e. mailing the application in). But also, it makes sense that having all the extra secondary ID's is helpful. Even though I couldn't find it on the official guide for the PR card renewal, at...

    Language Proficiency Proof for citizenship

    My understanding is there is no difference. Note that the diploma doesn't even need to be earned from inside of Canada, if they'll accept something from outside of Canada I don't see why they'd refuse it from inside of Canada while it's private. The main thing is that the college should be...

    April 2025 - Citizenship Applications

    And I just got the tracker email a couple of days ago (after having already created the tracker). So if things are taking longer don't fret, sometimes they .. just take longer.

    PR Card and Extension with 1.5 years left for RO

    I don't see how you're at fault for having an ill family member in europe - it's often the case that real life gets in the way and such, leading folks to have to sometimes make difficult choices and give up things. Now - if you're the only person able to take care of that ill family member in...

    Closed WP & SOWP from outside Canada, Visa stamping?

    1. It seems a little unusual for the SOWP to get approved first but I don't think there's any reason to worry. 2. has been answered already by Anitdasak and I don't have much to add to it. For 3. it depends on when you get the work permit. What I've seen is that you usually get a copy with the...

    IME Deadline Passed for Super Visa Extension – Need Advice

    As per https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/medical-asked-again-what-to-do.479614/post-6123621 IRCC sometimes will ask for a new medical for various reasons, such as if an illness was found that they wish to monitor. Importantly, the language of...

    PR Card and Extension with 1.5 years left for RO

    No harm in trying. Odds are better than trying for a PRTD under H&C. Again, the sooner you can arrange to do this, the better. I can't find it now but in I read on this forum that in some cases the CBSA officer will just ask you to report to IRCC instead of writing a report up themselves. (As...

    If PRTD application under H&C considerations is rejected

    Is this still an option? I don't think IRCC is obligated to honour a withdrawal request, instead they can still go ahead and deny. Or even if they honour it, I think they can and may still decide to finish the process of revoking your PR. I've read that PFLs are issued for many other kinds of...

    Immediate Relative information - name misentered in the PR Application (after ITA)

    I don't think so. Did you even have to provide any documents as evidence that he's your father? I thought this was more of a self-report. It's not a material difference, so as long as you can explain why it's spelled differently in some places and demonstrate that despite the spelling, both...

    Forgot to add UCI to application

    What I'd try in this case is to upload the old receipt fee for the original biometrics plus a letter of explanation restating the mistake with the old and new UCI and asking to link them together. As per...
