    First PR card issue timeline

    You are still well within normal range when it comes to receiving your PR card. There is a fairly wide range of processing time when it comes to getting your first PR card from 1-2 months to multiple months for some people. There is not a good tracking system for the process the card...

    Question regarding multiple PR stream file

    The processing time for the various H&C programs are incredibly long (can be decades depending on when they applied and what H&C program). If she qualifies for spousal sponsorship she should definitely apply processing will be significantly faster. She will be asked as a certain point to...

    Second marriage in canada while 1st spouse's sponsor file is in process

    That would be bigamy and is against the law in Canada. If the relationship has broken down the Canadian spouse is required to withdraw their sponsorship.

    PR Residency Obligation: COPR June 2024, PR Card Jan 2025

    Agree it is very lenient. Meant to say in my previous post that there seems to be more enforcement of RO than in previous years. 3 years to get citizenship also is too short and devalues Canadian citizenship and should be reassessed as it has been in many other countries where time to receive...

    Why is CEC Express Entry Permanent Residency Portal asking for my Non-accompanying Canadian common law partner's information?

    Did you declare you had a Canadian common law partner from the beginning? If so some of these questions should not have been prompted to be asked.

    Has anyone been through a similar situation after receiving a 44(1) report? URGENT ‼️

    Based on my recollection of the past few 44(1) cases processing seems to be taking around a year if not longer.

    Second marriage in canada while 1st spouse's sponsor file is in process

    A spouse visa doesn’t exist. Do you mean a visitor visa or spousal sponsorship.? Why do you want to get married again in Canada? To the same person?

    Is eTA while Renouncing PR in progress possible?

    PR doesn’t expire do you mean PR card? If so yes that could be a big problem. As a PR you aren’t entitled to an ETA. You either need to renounce your PR like your spouse or apply for a PRTD.

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

    Which is exactly why the program is not functional. We’ll wait and see how many hot AIP in 2026 but I think it will be much lower given how big the backlog already is.

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

    Not sure I would consider this reform. As you correctly point out given the backlog IRCC seems to be depending on people being removed or given up on H&C versus actually reforming a program. Denying applications and then overwhelming the courts seems to be another strategy.

    Why is CEC Express Entry Permanent Residency Portal asking for my Non-accompanying Canadian common law partner's information?

    Too many people were declaring their spouse as non-accompanying while they were accompanying. This allows IRCC to determine if actually non-accompanying.

    Has anyone been through a similar situation after receiving a 44(1) report? URGENT ‼️

    The outcome of you 44(1) has to be resolved before determining whether you may get another 1 year card or a 5 year card. Processing is around a year so you should hear somewhat soon. I would not leave Canada until you get a response regarding the 44(1).

    PR Residency Obligation: COPR June 2024, PR Card Jan 2025

    We see this time and time again on this forum. People have a plan that allows them zero flexibility and then life happens and they have to delay their travel to Canada or have to leave for longer than their planned vacation time. Always leave a significant buffer. Anecdotally it appears there...

    Queer from an islamic country

    Would personally worry about documenting your persecution and trying to find a way to enter Canada. Without entering Canada you can’t claim asylum. Asylum if you have no funds is not easy. Many are living in homeless shelters or even on the street due to capacity or just safety. The money the...

    IRPA 28(2)(a)(ii) Calculation: Soft Landing Only + Co-habitation with Citizen Spouse Prior to Divorce

    You had landed in Canada as well as the person you sponsored before getting COPR which could have been the reason more information wasn’t said. That said your spouse may end not being able to count RO for PR having never actually settled in Canada. At least the Canadian citizen is the one who...

    Haven't met RO and want to apply for spousal sponsorship

    Her ability to qualify is mainly based on her profile not your invitation but the invitation should be fine. It may be quite different to get a TRV’
