I didnt expect immigration to issue anything in writing - I was hoping to find something online in writing that I can print out. I'm very much aware that they never put follow up stuff in writing :) Thanks for confirming re: the marriage certificate! I spoke to the Help Centre and they...

Is there any where I can check this? I tried checking the official website but found nothing. I guess I can call them. I am in the same boat. My PR card is in maiden name, my passport is in my married name ... I am assuming that once I travel with my marriage certificate it should be fine...

Got my confirmation of PR! So next time I leave the country and come back in I will sign the documents ... woohoo! So happy.; Now I hear I have to wait 4 years to apply for a Canadian passport. The Stephen Harper government changed those rules, instead of 2 years it is now 4 years? Does anyone...

Where did you send your passport? To Ottawa?

That is good to know. That is not bad time lines. I submitted mine by Xpress post on Wed. 18 Feb. so it should get there by the 19 Feb. and I need it back before March 16th when I travel for work so I am hoping those time lines hold up. I am hearing it is about 2-3 weeks but I feel like I have...

I got an email saying "Visa Needed" so I had to submit my passport so they can put the visa in it. I believe this is the later stage for PR? i.e. they put a visa in my passport and then next time I leave the country and come back in I am "landed"? Is that how it works? How long does it take to...

I think our timelines are similar. And I've been told by a really good immigration lawyer here that based on those time lines and what they have been seeing, it could be as early as October we get PR...or as late as February next year...patience. I'm good for now as I have a valid work permit...

I'm an inland application in NS, going through the PNP Skilled Worker stream for PR. Did my medical etc. back in April/May. I've been told the timeline could be by early as October for PR or as late as April 2015...what is the situation for everyone else on here right now? How long after the...

Thanks for this! Good to know as my work permit expires December 2015, so I am hoping my PR comes through before then so I don't have to go through a whole renewal process again!

I will come wait with you. Got my "you've been nominated" letter in March and then my medical request in April. Am doing my medical this week. I am doing it in NS. Interested in the timelines after the medical...have heard ppl in SK waited 4 months, ppl in QC who have waited 1 yr...does anyone...

I have my medical this week in Nova Scotia. I was just wondering, how long after the medical did people have to wait to get PR? I am going through the PNP Skilled worker program? I have been told in SK it took someone 4 months after their medical. Then someone in GC said it took a year. Let me...

Oh definitely. I have started my application this week and submitted the documents and everything. Just wondering how long do you think it will take?

Hi all, I'm on a work permit valid until end of 2015. I've gone through the PNP in NS and was just nominated by the province so will start my PR application soon. What are the times persons have experienced in waiting? From time of submission for PR (through the PNP stream in NS) until getting...

Thanks I got through and did the application over the phone, received the documents and mailed it in. They said it should take 10 working days for them to process and send me the card so I should be getting it anytime now. Thanks.

Ok thanks for this information. Yes, I will be on my company's health care plan in a bit. How do I know if I qualify for NS health care though? I will try to google information but if you have direct links. Thanks!

Thank you so much for this! So helpful! Greatly appreciated!

Just got my first pay cheque and was hit hard by taxes so now I need to know how to go about making sure I get all the credits I am entitled to. Where do I start? Is there a free tax service I can use?
