    When I called to book an in-office appointment the call centre didn't ask for info but rather transferred me to an immigration officer who asked about my client ID, file number, date of birth, etc. But I didn't proceed further when I learned that it will take at least three weeks before a CIC...

    I haven't ordered GCMS notes yet, so I do not know. Is it the reason why they are asking fingerprints + criminal record check from RCMP? Or is it mandatory for all applicants from Canada? Please share more. Thanks

    Got a part time job to teach two courses at an off campus institution, then lost one due to not having eligibility to work more than 20 hours off campus according to my study permit :( Wish had applied earlier or have received my PR status by now! Why some of us got caught in a longer haul? ...
