That is strange. File transfers (when they need verification or interview) usually happen during normal processing time which is 6 months at the moment, and its normally transferred to your local CIC office. I would call the call center to verify.

Either of the two is fine.

No worries. Congrats again.. time to celebrate :)

Congrats! When I received the AIP email it says "you can apply for a work permit or student permit" , but directly under that is a box with a cross mark that says "your open work permit is approved and you will be receiving the document shortly. (Received in mailbox after 5 days). If your work...

That's the ideal but a lot of inland applicants have gone in and out of the country with no problems . It is generally not advised because for whatever reason you are not allowed entry, the application will be considered abandoned and you will have to start all over in your home country.

Relax they will just ask you if all information are correct and if you are convicted of any crime etc. and that's it. No reason to worry at all. Congratulations!!

You're welcome, I had to google what "bro montana" meant lol

I am 100% sure as I did the same , sent open work permit application without putting a note. They know you want the open work permit processed after AIP if its with the same envelope. I got the open work permit 5 days after I get the AIP email. Sometimes reading too much information on the forum...

Did you send the open work permit application with your spousal sponsorship (same envelope) ? If you did then you have nothing to worry about, They will process your open work permit when you get Approval in Principle which is in 6 months.

Same with me, We wanted to do outland because it was faster but had no choice since we already did medical and all forms for inland, but like a charm the processing of stage 1 went down from 11 months to 6 months so now we have an open work permit. Just can't travel yet but its ok .

Etobicoke. She sent supporting documents to local office where her file was transferred and she got AIP without interview. Here's the thread: http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/-t134800.0.html

Lol, i was just joking. You're welcome. Congrats to you and your partner!

the 2012 applicants are lucky, the first stage now is 5-6 months and 2nd stage 5 months average, so about a year total. the problem is processing times keep changing.

Thanks for the rating ! :) +1 to you too

Sorry to hear about your health problems. Montana border is only about 4 hours drive I think , but if you have a US visa or you're from a visa-exempt country yes you can take a flight. You can take any international flight (any destination) and when you come back to Canada airport that's where...

Im in Calgary too, drive to Montana, tell them you are only planning to land as permanent resident and not planning to enter US they will give you the instructions. Congrats !

The one nearest you. US border , just tell them you are only going to land , I heard its fairly easy.

She is right based from what I read from the work permit forums. I've been on closed work permit for 4 years too. I also know a few people who had the same issue (worked with expired sin while waiting for the new work permit) and they never had problems.

Throw a party!
