Hey guys, I just landed today! It was such an easy and stress free experience. Our interviewer was so nice. Basically we went in and they called us up to the counter. They asked for the landing interview letter we received and the receipt of the PR fee. They asked us to sit down and wait until...

Hi guys! I have a stupid question. So I saw that some people who received their landing interview letter had a request to bring their TRV. My landing letter never said I needed to bring it nor do I even have one :(. Is it because I was from a visa exempt country (USA)? I just want to make...

;D High five! We have the same landing date interview!

Hey Walter, I thought the same as I haven't gotten my landing letter after 4 weeks. I got my letter to day (finally!) and it indicates we need to pay the PR fee at least 3 working days before the landing appointment (online by credit card) OR 7 working days before the landing date (through...

Hey guys! I finally got my letter from the city of Hamilton about my landing interview date! My landing date is May 17th 2013! Two more weeks, woohoo! :o

Oh okay, thanks screech! :) I'm always on edge whenever the mailman comes around the corner, lol.

Question: What is the average wait time for your city (in my case Hamilton) to mail you your landing date letter after you've received your DM?

I'm a February applicant and I got my DM April 5th last Friday :)

Congrats i_am_oasa! Isn't it a breath of relief getting the e-mail? Time to celebrate. :D

Congrats Rusty! I'm very happy for you both! This will be a great start to the week! Celebation time!

Thank you guys! This is so awesome! My weekend will now be full of celebration. I actually received the email after the gym. I literally hugged everyone I saw with my sweaty self, lol.

Hi guys! I just received my letter of completion today (via e-mail)! :o The city of Hamilton should contact me soon! Yipeee!

Ah, thanks Jenny! I got my health insurance a while ago but I'm going to get my SIN today. :D

So I just got my OWP last week. It didn't have any forms for me to sign and return, just the actual permit. What do I do now? Can I just apply to any job and assume the employer knows what to do with my permit? Am I missing a step? Thanks! :D

Okay, it took me a while but I finally got an answer for people who are also wondering. First we contacted CIC and they didn't know what to do with the situation and referred us to the RIV program. We called the RIV program offices and they told us we didn't need to import the car at the actual...

Congrats frenchie57 :D! How did your landing interview go?

Thanks for the info 2_of_5! :) So basically you're saying that once I get my work permit I can 'temporarily import' my car? The only thing is, I can't do the 72 hour rule because I don't think I can leave the country that long with my implied status (unless I was misinformed?). I'll go ahead...

I've tried Google so many times, unfortunately. All I see is information for landed immigrants/Canadians importing US cars. I'm not sure if I can even import right now because I'm technically not even a permanent resident yet. Should I hand over the title to my Canadian husband so he can start...

I arrived in Canada at the end of last year as a visitor to marry my husband (been together for 9 years). I am now currently here as an implied status for my PR. To get here, I took my car on a long roadtrip (I'm from the US) instead of flying to Canada due to the fact that I had so much stuff...

We received xxx's application for permanent residence on February 13, 2012. We started processing xxx's application on September 27, 2012. Medical results have been received. Yipee! :D I hope the second stage doesn't take too long.
