    US Visitor Visa as a Protected Person in Canada

    I'm not an expert in this area, but I think there's two parts here; 1 - Do they issue the visa on an RTD that has less than 6 months of validity during the visa appointment? 2 - If yes, then assuming that you're travelling on the same day you get back the visa on RTD, then that might not be...

    2024 PR Application timeline

    Yes, I filled it in the PR portal as part of the online PR application back in 2024. I applied and got an RTD in 2024 and travelled to Germany this year. You're correct, maybe they ask for updated travel history for that reason.

    2024 PR Application timeline

    We are on similar timelines - I too applied in August 2024. Just called IRCC and checked the last notes on the file. They confirmed the last note on my file was from Nov 2024, when the biometrics were updated. No updates/officer notes since then. Hopefully, we are close to getting an update soon.

    2023 PR Applications Timeline (Protected Persons & Refugees)

    I think more like we just have to wait 1 more month for the next IRCC processing times update - hoping this timeline from Jan 14 update is accurate and it keeps reducing for all of us and not a one-off gimmick!

    RTD travel - Which nationality to select while booking a ticket

    Unsure about airside transits in Doha or Dubai. I checked with Etihad and the UAE embassy about international-to-international transit at Abu Dhabi for the Toronto > Abu Dhabi > Chiang Mai return flights. They confirmed that if the connecting flight is within 24 hours, we can do it with RTD...

    Protected person Family Applying for B1/B2 USA visa on their Refugee Travel Documents

    No, the US does not have airside transit for international-to-international flights. So all passengers arriving from outside the US must go through US Customs and Immigration, collect their bags, clear Customs, and then re-check their bags before getting their connecting flight. So in your case...

    Protected Person - Open work permit renewal

    I wouldn't recommend applying quite yet. Even though it feels good to be prepared, applying too early can actually cause some problems. When you submit your renewal, IRCC sends you an automated letter (IMM 0127) that lets you keep working for 180 days while they process your application. So if...

    Visit Qatar on RTD

    I’m not entirely sure of the current rules, but I’ve read in this forum that some members have successfully transited - for example, one person mentioned a trip to the Maldives from Toronto with a transit in Abu Dhabi via Etihad. That said, I personally wouldn’t recommend transiting through Gulf...

    PR card

    If she leaves Canada without a PR card, she'll be unable to come back to Canada via air. She'll need a PRTD to return by air as canuck78 mentioned before.
