Where are you currently based? If you are an Indian in the US, then you can get a birth certificate from the Indian consulate (they will take the info directly from your passport for both you and your wife), so that should be straightforward. Not sure how it works for Indians in countries...

Yes. Follow the supporting docs needed for PN and not FSW. Good luck 2u2.

Hi Rabbit, Congrats on receiving the AINP approval letter. 1. In my case, I faxed the letter and then sent it by snail mail. 2. The PN status update form should be used to communicate various steps of your CIC process to AINP (when you sent your application to CIC, when you sent your medicals...

Seinfeld, I took a cashiers check as proof of funds (< 10K). They wrote it down in my COPR and everything went smoothly with my landing. The way I read the proof of funds link is that you need to show more then 16850 CAD for your family when you are applying for AINP, not when you are actually...

Thanks RV and Manian. I'm just trying to find out if I need to take 10,000 or more to show as proof of funds. If not necessary to carry that much, then I don't plan on doing so (it is a huge sum!). Anyone else who can share their pointers/experience on this subject? Thanks.

To RV or anyone who has completed landing, Per the CIC website (http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/funds.asp), proof of funds for single person is 10,833 CAD. CIC website also says that if we are carrying an amount over 10,000 CAD, we have to disclose it to the official at the port...

I second dna's congratulations to all who got ppr and good luck to those who are still waiting. All the very best..it has been a long journey for us all. In the meantime, an fyi post that may/not impact those who leave and maintain credit cards in the usa...

Congratulations. It must be a huge relief now after the (un)eventful year you had. Good luck and best wishes to you and your family (also for hearing +ve news from CIC!). ML

Hi Tap, My file has disappeared in Buffalo and wants you to please suggest me what would be the best country to apply for its immigration .My case is on hold in Buffilo for security check.I am confuse what to do . Harry, Try United Kingdom (UK) or Denmark (DK). I've heard of Sweden (SE)...

Nope. But hoping to do so by the end of this year. I read someplace that se has something similar to dk. Haven't really looked it up though... Thanks ML. Yes I am working on UK. DK, I am not sure although I went through their requirements and felt its doable. Did you move to AB already? -DNA

Hang in there dna. The waiting period is the longest. Yours has been a bumpy ride, but remember, good things come to those who wait (so they say:-)) btw, are you looking at dk/uk? Best wishes, ML

just in time for your first canadian thanksgiving!

poppy, me thinks you will be fine..its only a 3 hr drive b/n edmonton and calgary. If they ask, tell them you want to drive thru their scenic province:-) btw, when are you planning to land?

Hi Poppy, I am hoping to land sometime before year end. Another piece of info: I spoke with an AINP representative a few days ago and they said that we should land in Ab only as they have heard of immigration officers giving people a hard time if they land in another province. The rep also...

Thanks! I sent a stamped priority mail bubble wrap envelope with tracking. In such matters, regular mail takes too long:-(

Thanks poppy. Got mine today with stamp after 3 long weeks of waiting. Guess posting on this forum was my lucky charm!

To all who sent your passport to NYC: did it take more than 2 weeks to get it back? I also found out they have not cashed my check yet. Their letter says we should wait 90 days before requesting them for updates. What should I do? They don't respond via phone. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Thanks Inge, nomad, dna, jpadz, kishankanhaiya.. Congrats to everyone else who got their passport requests and good luck to those who are waiting. Btw, my ecas still says 'in process'.. KayCee2: Does this mean we can land anywhere in Canada, but an Alberta address is required for mailing of the...

Nope. I sent the state PCCs to NY consulate before they asked for it, just in case. If I recall correctly, someone else on the forum (also NY consulate) did something similar. So I decided to be proactive:-)

Thanks dna! Will have some on your behalf too!! I think I will mail it in. Another question- The letter does not make any mention of 'landing fees'. I may be traveling to Canada in the next 2 months, can I just complete the 'landing formality' at the airport?
