    Spousal sponsorship

    Your MP's staff are poorly informed (probably new staff, quite possibly stupid). Pick a place where your family live or where you expect to settle, contact them. Tell them the other MP refused - this works best if it's a different party. When you get help from one, write a short note to that MP...

    Language Skills passed, Physical Presence and Prohibitions still in Progress - Feb 2025 AOR, no document or interview requests

    So when you wrote "I got my Physical Presence updated to complete on 7 June 2025", you meant something else? ;)

    Language Skills passed, Physical Presence and Prohibitions still in Progress - Feb 2025 AOR, no document or interview requests

    Since they updated to complete, it may be that. Or even one set of eyes, and they require it for all with less than [x] days - and that person looked and it was straightforward and nothing more to do.

    Language Skills passed, Physical Presence and Prohibitions still in Progress - Feb 2025 AOR, no document or interview requests

    They updated yours to complete. They were satisfied. Don't overthink it.

    PR Renewal applications April 2025

    PR renewals don't seem to provide useful updates for a month or so - by which many applicants already got their cards in the mail. You submitted less than ten days ag0 - I'd just leave it and not look at the tracker until July, needless stress for little return. (I know, easy to say, harder to do)

    Because you're sampling from more recent months, you're biasing the data by including only faster files (excluding all that haven't made it this far). To compare to a sample including slower files, you should go into files further back, ideally including ones that are past the estimated...

    Language Skills passed, Physical Presence and Prohibitions still in Progress - Feb 2025 AOR, no document or interview requests

    My spouse had more days (not very many though) and complicated travel, and had interview. Physical presence was cleared shortly thereafter, others not (we were told about the background etc taking a while from the date of interview). So it's my guess that the manual check can result in PP...

    PR Holder - Soft Landing Done, Child birth outside Canada post soft landing– Next Steps for Moving to Canada

    VERY IMPORTANT: from the day you became a PR, how many days outside Canada? (In other words, compliant with residency obligation or not?) Answers to subsequent questions will be partly dependent on this. Yes. Not clear whether they will grant it. Does the child hold a US passport? You can...

    Residency obligation

    You should expect that it won't be fast.

    Spousal sponsorship

    To avoid any issues, strongly suggest you make sure to give biometrics for the spousal app - otherwise may have to give twice. Usually that comes not long after the AOR (that you just got). You could decide to wait for that before applying for TRV or not. Personally I'd give it a week or two...

    Urgent Help Required – Unable to Apply for New eTA with Valid Work Permit

    Did the lawyer tell you what you do need? Again, simple deduction: if you can't get on the plane (you need to clarify this), then you need something for that - and if you can't apply for an ETA, you need a TRV. No, I don't know number for CBSA, apart from internet.

    That would be pretty quick, given it's already June 11 - the invites seem to usually be for ceremonies two weeks + into future.

    It could be the part 'we might not understand' is that Vancouver seems to do the BG/prohibitions for all. https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/march-2025-citizenship-applications.867956/post-11059935

    I understand IRCC eventually provides the correspondence needed to let you apply for the PCC in [country.] Don't follow specifically for Singapore though.

    Reposting - pls help

    Errata correction above: I wrote 'waiting and getting it stamped in Canada' - that should have read 'outside Canada'.

    Reposting - pls help

    Yes. And timelines might be long for that. I've heard four months plus, but I do not follow closely.

    For countries where it's known that authorities won't issue PCC without IRCC request, it's normal to submit without.
