    Should I make an asylum application or a 'Humanitarian & Compassionate' application?

    The issue is it could be an issue for an H&C claim if you are not financially self-sufficient. It is incredibly dependent on the specifics but if able to work that is always preferable for H&C cases. There is no right to receive disability payments. Even if you are disabled you may not qualify...

    Visitor visa application timeline Sep 2025

    You either get relatively fast processing if AI is used or it will likely take months if a manual review is required. Really depends on the profile.

    Inland application would like to travel out of Canada.

    Are you currently working? That is different than have a WP. Is this 1 week course essential? Would be much safer to return with your partner and limit your travels to 3 weeks. There are no concrete rules about this but 1 month is tough to justify as a vacation based on Canadian standards...

    Skill Transferability Factor CRS Points- Foreign Work Experience While Enrolled as Student (Outside canada)

    Was this a paid internship? Did you declare this as work experience when applying for your previous permits?

    Residency Obligation not met

    Argument could be made whether 2020/21 vs now is worse. There were at least survival jobs to be found and some remote opportunities in 2020/2021. It has always been challenging for Indian professionals to transition to Canada which is why moving earlier on in life gives you more time to get back...

    H&C Humanitarian Ground with/or Without Failed refugee claim

    Sometimes medical is done before AIP. Sometimes it is related to potential health concerns of the applicant(s) but not always. Your file is moving forward.

    COPR deadline in two weeks, no PPR yet (Outland Spousal Sponsorship)

    Would disregard COPR expiry date. That can be changed. All you can do is wait for COPR to be sent to you if abroad.

    No updates on Super Visa application

    How old is he and has he done biometrics in the past 10 years? Has he done his medical? Processing can take months. All you can do is wait.

    2023 PR Applications Timeline (Protected Persons & Refugees)

    Ignore posted processing times they are backward looking. Compare yourself to others being processed in or outside Quebec to get the most realistic idea of current processing times. Processing times will continue to increase. There was a large number of asylum claimant (many who became...

    2023 PR Applications Timeline (Protected Persons & Refugees)

    You are essentially in a long queue. Canada received a large volume of asylum claimants (many who became protected people) and refugees in a short period of time under the Trudeau government for a variety of reasons. Now most are applying for PR all while Canada tries to decrease the volume of...

    Inland application would like to travel out of Canada.

    ETA and TRV all essentially the same thing. No a TRV would not let you remain outside longer. IRCC has typically overlooked short travels abroad while applying inland. They do realize that people may go on vacation or have to travel for a business. Most Canadians get 2-3 weeks of vacation a...

    Advice Needed: Veterinary Career

    The professional degree can’t be 5.5 yrs if you’re including the 1 year paid internship. You have to pick education or work experience. It would be 4-4.5 yrs depending on whether there is a break included in how you are counting.

    Study Permit Processing Delays 2025

    Would take the processing times with a grain of salt and prepare for longer ones. Hopefully you are attending a public university. If a top program and simple application some get processed faster but given level of funds can’t imagine you’re attending UofT, UBC, York, Western, McGill, Queens, etc.

    A visa doesn’t. Travel to the US does.

    Inland application would like to travel out of Canada.

    1 month may be pushing it. Would limit the trip to 2-3 weeks if possible. Do you have a valid TRV?

    Lost Job while permanent residence application in process

    Can’t tell you. You should just be aware that it is really tough to get a job in Canada for many people. Would also apply across Canada and not limit yourself to one location if possible.
