Not quite the same, but I (sponsored husband!) took a trip on my own out of the country after we moved here, but before getting the PR. Just flying down to NYC, but I had no issues with immigration. I just explained that I was living here as a visitor while waiting for the PR to come through -...

Hi Pinklady, My COPR was issued on May 9th; can you add that update to the spreadsheet? Thanks! The spreadsheet was incredibly helpful during our process so thanks very much for maintaining it. A couple of other observations on our application that may be helpful to others. First, we...

Hi NevilleUK I feel your pain... We sent our application on 20 Dec and it arrived in Mississauga and was signed for on 22 Dec. Although we haven't received the sponsorship letter, it's quite a relief to get the AOR. At least we know that they haven't misplaced the application... yet! If the...

Hello - I just posted this on the London thread, but in case someone here is also interested, I just stumbled upon the CIC's Quarterly PR Applications Data Release which has some great stats on processing times for the 12 months to Sep 2011. I'm not allowed to post links, but if anyone's...

Apologies in advance for what is almost certainly a pedantic question, but does anyone have any idea how the Processing Times on the CIC site are calculated? In particular: 1) If an application reaches the CIC while processing times were 68 days and processing times later change to 74 days...

Apologies for what is possibly a stupid questions. How do you update your profile to include an icon with the country flag and key dates of the application like: Category........: FAM Visa Office......: London App. Filed.......: Med's Done....:

Hi Pinklady Could you please add me to the timeline? Application submitted 22/12 No access via eCas yet, but I'm assuming we may have been caught in the Xmas / year-end rush. Thanks

Hi In our last post, we mentioned that we had a daughter born to a Canadian citizen who didn't need to be included in the PR application. We're in the process of applying for a citizenship certificate for her through the London, UK office. However, given that the processing times look like they...

Lovely, thanks very much.

Great thank you. Can anyone provide any insight into applying for a work permit while an outland spousal visa is being processed? We just want to be sure that this will not cause any conflict.

Hi - we're just about to take the plunge and are in the process of gathering up all the required documentation for an outland application through the London, UK office. We do have some general questions, though and would appreciate any insight: 1) We've been married for more than 10 years and...
