    PR Card Solemn Declaration Processing Time

    Something similar happened to me. I have not been able to speak to a live agent so I reached out to my MP. While MP was working on it, I also sent Solemn declaration. I just received my card in the mail a few days after. How do I 'stop' the solemn declaration process? or do I do nothing?

    US visa interview in Toronto

    Medical surveillance 2.02

    It has not been the nicest experience. No one seems to know what the medical surveillance is about. I called over 20 public health phone numbers within my province but I just kept being redirected to a different officer who had no idea what I was supposed to do. When the 30 days were almost...

    Can't see PR status

    oh wow, that sucks. If you have some time, you can call the IRCC call center. I don't know if an agent can provide you with any useful information. The generic webform responses clearly aren't helping.

    Montreal Visa Office ... Let's connect here.

    Thanks. I took it at CVS. Although they were reluctant, all they had to do was change the computer settings to 'Canada'. Their cutter is customized for US type passports only, so I used a pair of scissors to cut it myself.
