Je viens de recevoir ma Carte de Resident Permanent - après 3 ans et 4 mois - et 6 semaines après ma période d'attente. Je suis très heureux - pour dire le moins. I just received my Permanent Resident Card - after 3 years and 4 months - and 6 weeks after my 3 month waiting period. I am very...

I got the $400 figure from the CIC website. But even if it is "only" $150 - it is simply outrageous. What exactly was the three month waiting period for if even after that one must wait at least two more months to receive their PR benefits? And now you tell me it could take SIX months...
