I believe one of the requirements for the IEC is to have health coverage.... so if at the border they ask for proof that you have adequate health coverage you would have to provide this otherwise they can deny you entry. As for my experience I was lucky they didn't ask for proof of funds or...

Has anyone waiting for a PR card flown and come back without any issues? Being visa exempt I'm thinking it should be ok. I'm just worried a little as I'm going away next weekend.... I still haven't received my PR card yet. Turnaround time on their website says 23 calander days and its been way...

I think with family sponsorship it really depends on where you are from. I am from Australia so being from a visa exempt country really helped with the process. You can always check the visa office and the spreadsheet under the family class thread to give you an idea of how long it has taken...

I received my aor yesterday. You can update my record however I have asked them last mth to withdrawal my application which they still haven't done sigh.

They don't send these documents via registered mail unfortunately just regular mail in a brown envelope.

I went to renew my Ohip last weekend and I was lucky to get it renewed with just my bowp. They did not ask for my employment letter. I seem to be running into a lot of luck lately as well with everything.

Seems like I was extremely lucky to be approved. I figured maybe they can see my fee was cashed. I can't explain why I received it but I was happy when I did!

Landed today via Rainbow bridge. Best of luck to all the May applicants!!

I officially landed today via Rainbow bridge. A little bit of hiccup in the process as I decided to go the route of walking over the bridge... I had no idea where the entrance was to walk over the bridge. The immigration officer was asking if I had returned back from the US which I didn't coz I...

My draft was cashed on 27th Nov, they received my paper application on Oct 28th and my work permit is valid from Dec 15th for a year.

Omg my xpress post tracker has been activated! My COPR is on it's way to me. I'll prob end up getting it next week though but I am relieved it's in the mail now. Getting closer to landing :)

Yes you can do that. I have applied under both CEC and Family Sponsorship. Btw I agree with what you are saying lomsky by wanting to apply without being dependent on your partner. I really feel that way too. However the turnaround time for family sponsorship can be a lot quicker and I wanted to...

To be on the safe side you should lodge the up to date forms. The last thing you want is delays in your application because they are requesting for the updated version.

It looks like the forms have changed because previously you would have stated Sydney, Australia, however if you are using the out of canada forms I can see you have to put your citizenship information on the updated version so I think this is what they use to determine the Visa office it will go...

Congratz! I have been following the Sydney thread and I knew since you received yours mine hopefully will come to me before the new year. I am factoring in the Christmas/Boxing day holiday. Would be a great start to 2015 if I was able to receive my COPR before this :)

I sent my PPR on December 4th.. reached their office on the 8th though.

This thread here is quite useful I will leave the link in case you need assistance with other parts of the application. http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/-t147650.0.html

I applied through new employer

I applied for CEC so I can get a BOWP. I did apply for family sponsorship but I am unable to get a OWP this way because I applied outland. Hope that clarifies..

I'm so sorry to hear that :( When in September did you apply? My application was received on Sep 11th, bank draft cashed on Nov 27th and I sent my paper BOWP application and received on Oct 28th.. I dunno if timelines have something to do with it as well?
