I got my PR and did the landing in May 2014. I am in the US on a H1B visa and was trying to get my GC on EB1 as I am eligible for the same. (which usually takes less than a year). However my employer is not willing to process EB1 and they are willing to file a EB2 though I play a senior...

I am currently residing in the US on a work visa. We completed the landing on May 29th 2014 and applied for our PR cards and left Canada in 5 days. Our PR cards reached a trusted relative of ours. However, we got the cards only for me and my two children. Due to a minor error by the immigration...

Hi, we are landing tomorrow in Toronto (currently we live in the US). I was trying to fill up the application for a PR card. I am assuming the address history, residency obligation needs to be filled in only after some one becomes a permanent. So there wouldn't be any history at all. Since we...

Hello there, I had completed the medicals for me and my family on June 15th 2013. I had sent the documents except for our passports to the ND visa office with a cover note that I will submit my passports when requested. Initially my travel was for 6 weeks and I had intended to return to India...

Hi, I completed the medical tests for me and my family on June 14th. Since then there has been no update. "Medicals Received" line never got added, and it is still stuck on "In process" status. Any thoughts?

As per the communication from ND visa office, the RPRF amount is INR 24010 or $490. Should this be paid in CAD or can it be done in INR? With the current conversion rate, $490 is much higher than INR 24010. So what should be the amount in INR to pay? Please help as I will be submitting the docs...

I sent the full docs to New Delhi Visa Office in Aug 2010 and got the second AOR in the same month. My wife is constantly insisting on withdrawing the application. I am still in a dilemma on what to do. Given the current trend I am expecting the status to change to 'In Process' probably by end...

I understand from the forum that the Canadian PR validity is 1 year from medicals or expiry of passport whichever is earlier. However from the signature of certain members, I have seen that the expiry is almost a year from the visa issued date. Can someone who has the visa confirm how long is...

Though the Visa Office checklist states that the spouse's reference letters need to be originals, is it OK to submit notarized copies? I am asking this as my wife would need the original letters in case of a job change and given the time line that Visa offices take, it might become a problem in...

I have two queries and would appreciate a response. I searched the forum but could not arrive at a clear cut answer. 1) I have to show $20599 as proof of funds. Can I show this broken up in multiple saving accounts/fixed/recurring deposits? or should all the money be in one account? (these are...

Do we need to send the Right to Permanent Residence ($490) Fee with the full docs to the Visa office? I am a little confused on this as the Visa office checklist/website does not state that clearly? Do we need to pay for children less than 18 or is it waived off? (This is for New Delhi Visa office)
