    Flying back to Canada on an expired PR?

    My mother in law has travelled overseas on an expired PR card. She has been a PR for decades and simply forgot to check, turns out she actually applied for a new card a few months back but haven't gotten it yet. She was just denied boarding on her plane home and is not sure how to get home now...

    Yesterday I heard the most amazing words "Congratulations you're now a permanent resident, Welcome to Canada". The journey have been almost a year and a half, and this forum have helped us so much. Thank you all. I will of course stick around and help as much as I can.

    Mistakes in COPR

    Hi all We recieved our COPR Friday and are super exited, we plan on landing in December in Calgary. But I have found a few odd mistakes on our COPRs. - Under COR (which I suppose means Country of Residence) they have written AUSTRALIA, but I live in DENMARK. We lived in Australia five years...

    Not sure. We got a passport request even though Denmark is also visa exempt and we included passport copies and photos in our originial application. It might be different with Australia since you are a Commonwealth country.

    Medical - Upfront vs not

    I got mine done in Edmonton (Alberta) last year. If your doctor can submit it electronically you get the froms you need to attach to the application straight after the examination(s), and they submit the actual results to CIC electronically within 7-10 business days. My son got his done at the...

    Urgent : I GOT THE PR

    2-3 months would be very fast, I would expect a lot longer, at least 6 months. Prepare as much information as you can before getting married, so all you need is to add a copy of your marriage certificate and send it in. Are you planning on applying outland or indland, and at what visa office?
