Hi everyone I'm applying for my first passport and I have questions about the photo requirements for those of you who already got theirs done. 1) I got my photo done at Costco and it has a stamp at the back that says: ''I certify this to be the true likeness of the applicant), do I have to...

Hey Dribble How did you know that your file was transferred to the Hamilton office ? Did the CIC agent tell you ?

Hey again everyone I've been posting here frequently about my case for some time now. As you may have read in my earlier posts. As I expected my pr card renewal application was referred to secondary review. I've been waiting to renew my card for over two years and now I got pulled into this...

Same story I was living with my (single) mother in Kuwait and I came to university in Canada on my own in August 2014 and I was 18 years old at the time I didn't spend a single day outside Canada. Haven't seen my mom my family or my friends for over two years. Been living here alone for over...

Hey yeah I saw that It's just because when I was checking the guide a couple of months ago, it specifically said to copy all pages of all passports held in the past five years and translate all stamps. It was mentioned in the checklist as well but it doesn't seem to be the case anymore I...

Hey everyone I sent off my PR renewal application but when I was filling in my application I noticed that on the CIC page, there is no mention of photocopying passport pages and translating stamps at all ? Even when I checked the document checklist, it only lists things like the application...

Congratulations Odessa. That's amazing Which office is your local one ? and would you mind sharing which documents did you provide with your application ? Did you provide anything extra ? Congrats again!

I respect this opinion but the point remains the same. This assumes that all PR's have the flexibility to immediately move to Canada as soon as they become PRs which is not true for most applicants. A lot of people cannot move to Canada right away for work/family obligations or simply because...

Hey Odessa92 Were you in secondary review ? What's your timeline ?

That's impressive ASAINI. Congratulations! Would you mind sharing any tips on how you compiled your application and your documents? Did you put them in a specific order and did you provide any extra or specific documents for you or your family besides the required documents ? Congrats again!

I was just wondering, Does a PR have to be in compliance with the Residency obligation on the day they order a CBSA Travel History report ? Thank you

Hey jungshan! Would you mind sharing your experience in crossing the border with the taxi ? Which taxi did you use an did they ask you for any documents on either side of the border?

Congratulations VHMMBC Did you apply for urgent processing ? How many days did you have in Canada ?

I'm definitely not sending my application until I reach the 730 days mark (and a bit more) but I was just wondering if I have to be in compliance with the RO in order to request the CBSA Travel History report ? I'm just trying to see what documents I can provide to avoid secondary review. I...

Hello I'm preparing to apply for my PR renewal in a couple of months. I initially breached my RO because I was living with my mother as a dependent child. I moved to Canada just before my 19th birthday and have been here for almost 2 years straight without leaving Since I lived in the Gulf...

Hey cnccnc Congratulations on getting your card renewed. That's great to hear! Did you provide any extra documents beside the ones required by CIC ? Did you provide your own travel record with stamps and all ?

Hey JJS Congratulations on receiving your PR card! Did your application go to Secondary Review ? I'm asking because I'm in a similar situation except that I entered Canada a little over a year before my PR card expired so I also stayed for two years. Did you also provide any additional...

Congratulations YYZINR! I was just wondering if you can share how many days you had in Canada when you applied please ? and if you provided any specific documents besides the required ones ?

I'm also wondering about why so many people end up getting secondary review ? I mean like there has to be a reason to raise those concerns. It can't be just random ? Is it unemployment or do they doubt the authenticity of documents provided by applicants ? If the 730-day rule doesn't cut it...
