    Travel document without passport

    Now I am getting tempted not to apply. I am in the process of applying now, gathering my documents and filling out paperwork. When I re-enter Canada, I'll ask the immigration officer at the airport whether visa exempt passport holders need to apply or not.

    Travel document without passport

    I hold an Australian passport. How come when I spoke to the immigration officer, she told me I had to apply for a travel document? She was holding my passport in her hands. I also rang CIC and that useless woman told me it doesn't matter what passport I hold. What you two are saying makes...

    They usually email you. However, you can never be too sure. They seem to be doing odd things. Are the rules and regulations changing? I had a look at the spreadsheet and I seem to be the only one who's been asked for an interview. Aahahahahhaha I'm not complaining, it could be much worse. I...

    I got a letter from the Canadian immigration for an interview. I rang CIC and they said my PR was approved in Sydney and the file was transferred to Calgary and they sent a letter out requesting an interview and more photos.

    Did they email you, once it was done. Or did they just send the paperwork? I'm checking my email everyday, hoping to see something. Its been a week since UPS delivered the mail, they said 5-10days. I guess its more on the 10days side.

    They ask for Your passport, Appendix B and 4 more photos if your application has been longer than 6months, because they require max 6months old photo. Hope I didn't confuse you. So for me, I didn't want to send my passport since I am travelling. So I emailed Sydney immigration and they informed...

    Hi, I was told applying from outside Canada is quicker than applying from inside. Applying through Sydney is roughly 10months.

    So HR at work told me, the company doesn't do LMO. To extend application, I have to fill out form number 5710? This is the form I filled out for an open work permit and got refused.

    thedreadedpiper, thank you so much for replying. I understood everything you said but I have one more question, I wasn't expecting CIC to refuse my work permit so I bought tickets to go to Europe for two weeks.
