Indian immigrant men don't have the best reputation here, especially when it comes to women. It's an unfortunate reality that we have to live with. @ImpatientKangaroo's controversial views have some truth to them.

Right. But they accept a number of address proofs (phone bill, bank statements), so you'd have to wait atmost a month. See if you can get any of these documents asap. Even the rental agreement doesn't have to be an official one, I saw some posts on FB who got an agreement for a months Airbnb...

Nope rules have changed, you can get OHIP from day one, provided you can show them a proof of address. They will give you your OHIP number right away and mail the card in a couple of weeks. Just take your passport, CoPR and address proof to Service Ontario.

Have your vaccine card/document ready too, they will check it at the Delhi airport, no covid test of any kind needed. You declare your goods at the airport, but have the lists (2 copies of each) ready before you arrive. They only care about goods to follow list really, if you have one.

Yeah you just have to let them know about your old SIN since it is not clear they will ask if you don't let them know. You can apply online which will take at least 3-4 weeks, but you need an address proof. If you go in person you can get it same day (no address proof needed, just passport +...

Yes, you need to apply for a new SIN once you become a PR (this will be a permanent one). The Service Canada person also asked me for my old SIN (probably to record it against my new SIN on their system, maybe to track taxes and stuff). You should also update your SIN with your bank, employer etc

Congratulations, man!

So I got my GCMS notes today which I ordered a month ago, they were generated after I got PPR. The following note might be of interest to people, which essentially confirms that sending them an email with upfront docs and requesting to expedite the application can work. Essentially an officer...

Yes to both.

Funny, the same thing happened to me just before I got PPR. I got a reply to a webform I sent sometime back. I was excited it was the PPR email but then scrolled down to the English part to find that it was just a reply to the webform. Then an hour later PPR arrives. This one was unmistakeable...

Also just curious @VVV62 , did you send a performance request email before getting ADR?

Good to see all the thread veterans getting PPR. I wonder what happened to @ZAtoCD Also how lucky are we to have Ottawa as VO. I'm confident most people who are waiting here who have Ottawa as VO are gonna get approved in the next month or so, they are on a mission to clear backlogs. Tough luck...

With regards to PCC, I think it is fine as long as it is valid i.e. less than 6 months (and you haven't moved to a new country since you got it). To be on the safer side, it's good to have something not more than 3 months old. I got a PCC request about 3 weeks after I got a fresh one (to submit...

PM'd you guys.

Procedural Fairness Letter is pretty serious. The visa officer has concerns about your application and is giving you a final chance to explain yourself. Maybe @legalfalcon can explain more. I would strongly suggest you book a consultation with a Canadian immigration lawyer, explain your...

Nope. I think you'll only see an update when COPR is issued.

Basically an email requesting (begging?) them to finalize the application in 30 days by saying that the time taken so far has far exceeded the promised service standard of 6 months.

Is it a "Procedural Fairness letter" or a regular document request? In any case, I would strongly suggest booking a consultation with a Canadian immigration lawyer and drafting a response with their help, you shouldn't take any risks with these kind of requests.

I sent my VO (Ottawa) a "performance request" email asking them to finalize my application within 30 days since it had been more than 18 months. My upfront medical was approved the very next day and I got an ADR too. I am not sure the request email was the reason. Note that I didn't demand them...
