I am based in Toronto/GTA area and would have really really liked the option to choose those test dates.

Same question. What new portal? Yesterday, I received the email for citizenship test but I need to reschedule. I do not see any link in the PDF. Can someone guide me? In the PDF, I see the following - no link. Please guide me where to look for the link.

Any updates regarding PR process for those who landed in Canada on OWP? I landed in May '13 on OWP and got an e-mail 2 weeks back asking for Medicals, RPRF, a couple of forms and passports. I can send proof of medicals (from OWP medicals), the forms and RPRF from here. However, I cannot send...

Thanks for the detailed response. Here is what I was thinking and I could be totally wrong: Coops are volunteer work opportunities to gain 'Canadian Exp'. I have 10+ years of exp in my field of study/work but none of it would be 'Canadian exp'. I plan to join a coop just for that. Now, I would...

Thank you. That was a pretty informative post. Quick question: Are co-op committal programs? Most people will continue to apply for jobs in their fields even while being in a co-op program. What if they get a job offer? Can they quit the program (immediately?) and proceed to the new job?

>:( >:( >:( >:( >:( NDVO is sleeping. WP Meds done a month ago and no sign of passport. Any India-based applicant got the WP visa?

canimmigrate, Sad to know that after all these years of waiting, a ray of hope shines and then absence of just a birth certificate clouds the hopes. Wish you get a fair chance and you come out with success.

I can understand what a relief it would be :) So you will be sending your kid's passport back once the medicals is done, right?

Tarakvshah, I got my meds done 2 days b4 u did...so kinda parallel there... Not sure why your kid's passport was returned - DO check with NDVO...even if it is a mistake, it can induce unnecessary delays in your travel plans... Pradeeshma, We all are waiting for you to give the good news :)

MuhammadFahad, had you provided a police clearance earlier when you applied? I wonder why would they ask again if you had already provided it. Also, what would be a 'settlement plan'?

Hi Pradeeshma, I had called up VFS and I was told that the visa takes 5 working days from the date they receive the medical results. Secondly, I am not sure how will e-medical accelerate the process coz they still courier the blood and urine test reports - only the opthalmic, general & x-ray...

Congrats rp_tp. Not sure if many people got the MR for PR from ND. I got my MR for the WP though. Hopefully, they will consider the same medical results for the PR as well and thus, reduce that one step from the PR process.

Hi rp_tp, Your AOR would be around the corner. My application reached CIO in Jan first week and I got my AOR last week. Typically, they send out the AORs on Thursdays. Check your mails the first thing this Friday morning and you might get the pleasant surprise :)

Also, NDVO continues to be a mystery! For PNP, so many of them got AOR - NO medicals yet. Many applied for OWP - NO update yet.

It says 'signature' at the bottom. If we submit electronically, do we leave that blank?

Most of us were unable to use the online application - it always showed an error. I applied via the regular route.

Congrats Malisa! I looked up Winnipeg...looks like a beautiful city :) Wish you all the best!

Yes, this OWP is the most confusing application so far. My VO says "Ask OOPNP about which forms to be filled" and OOPNP (rightly) says "Ask your VO". I applied for OWP yesterday at a VFS center in India. Had included WP+TRV application for me and my spouse plus study permit application for...

Thanks rp_tp for the info. My application reached CIO just yesterday so I guess it wud make sense for me to apply for OWP, considering that it is better to move to Canada during summer so that you get time to settle (driving license, car, etc) before the harsh winter sets in. Requesting help...

For OWP, I have filled up the Main Application form, TRV application form & Family info form for my wife and me. However, what all forms do I need to fill for my 8 year old kid? I assume it will be a study permit but not sure which all forms are needed. Need some help here. THanks!
