Hi gudboy, the online status sometimes is not reliable. For example, my online status did not change after LVO received my medical results. In all time it showed In process even after I got my visa. It was only after I received my visa by two weeks when status showed Decision made. so, do not...

Hi xony, I am really pleased for you ! Many Congrats! Wishing you a very successful life in Canada. To my knowledge it will be impossible to change visa expiry date but I'll leave this question for seniors to kindly answer. I heard that ppl land for a brief period and return to home country to...

Hi, I think there is validity period for each police certificate (probably 3 months), not too sure and in applications they ask for a valid updated certificates (pls check this in application package). However, in case you needed another one, it is simple. You can always apply for police...

I just come across this thread and indeed in the most needed time. In the start of my life in Canada as an immigrant, the stories in this thread inspired me. Many thanks to captain Qorax and seniors contributions. Sherin

Hi Shah, Medicals done in October 2011. PPR end of April 2012. Got visa 19th May 2012.

In my case they asked for RPRF together with medical exam request and before completion of background checks.

Hi Smart-roma, In some cases it is not necessarily e-cas is updated regularly. Please wait till the period they defined in their medical request letter ends and if you did not hear from them send an inquiry. Ppl usually receive feedback immediately after medicals if they needed to do further...

Many thanks Louth for your reply.

Hi Louth, How long it took to receive your PR card? Thanks

Hi, You are required to inform VO and send them a copy of your new passport. On passport request for visa issuing, you need to send your new passport (together with a copy of your old one, if you want to do so). Sherin

If you need additional amount of money for your own use (not to show to officer), you can also use prepaid credit card. I personally used it and it was Ok. It saves you from carrying a lot of cash during the travel hassle.

Hi, Yes, you are required to show POF at landing. I am not sure how much you need to show for 4 members but you can always check this on cic web site. You should have seen this also in info for application package while applying for immigration (the very first step). Travellers cheques and bank...

Hi, Yes, my case went to DM without any Medicals received line. In fact, I never had medicals received line and I am now in Canada. DM has been added to my online status after my passport was stamped. So dont worry probably your passport request is on its way. All the best. Sherin

Ok. Yes, you are true. Info I got from this forum is really helpful and I am always grateful to ppl who answered my questions and therefore assisted me during last steps of the immigration. Sherin

Hi sodapop, You will need to land in Canada within a year since your Medicals done. So if your medicals was on the 13th of Feb 2012, your visa expiry date will be the 13th of Feb 2013 and you will need to land in Canada before the 13th of Feb 2013. This is regardless the date in which your visa...

Thank you xony. I submitted my passport while in England and it took 3 weeks for them to send my passport back via Royal Mail special delivery. If you are outside UK it may be different. I really wish you get yours v soon. Sherin

Hi Aquib, Yes, it is my pleasure to share my landing experience here. Few things may be taken into consideration before I carry on and describe landing. 1- My application took about 3 years and so I had the time to look for jobs all last year. I have managed to secure one. 2- I do not know any...

Hi Midoo, In my situation, LVO did not inform me that they sent my passport back. My online status did not change either. I have landed in Canada 8 days ago and my address still a UK one (my residence during application). So, I'd say do not worry you will receive your passport back soon. Sherin

In fact your visa was issued at the same day mine was issued! the 14th of May :)

Many congrats auditor. Best of luck for your new life in Canada. Sherin
