So, am I the only one who sent the criminal record check, medical, and all other documents all at once when I first sent my app/applied? Everyone is always talking about sending in medicals, record checks, but why? Those were supposed to be included in the application packet in the first place...

Any recent experiences with dual-intent here? Dual-intent being, visiting Canada using a visitor's visa while applying for permanent residency. From what I've read, as long as you satisfy the officer that the visitor will be leaving once their visa is up and that they have ties in their home...

Sent our application to the Miss. office from Japan over a month ago, but I still can't log-in online to check the status of my application. I noticed they upped the average time to 47 days. Has anyone else submitted their app. to Miss. sometime in the past month or two? Can you log in?
