Hi everyone, I've been a silent member on this forum but wanted to let you know that I received an update for my PR card application. Please see below: Landed at Niagara Falls: June 21st P.R Card approval (email letting me know that there was an update in my cic account): Today, August 15...

Hi, I applied for a post graduate work permit on the 15th of July. My cic account was updated on the 19th and it said that the PGWP had been processed and mailed to me (I also called the customer service line to confirm this because it usually takes weeks) but I haven't received it in the mail...

Thank you all for your responses. I don't think the expired TRV will be an issue as I have travelled to the states with an expired TRV (in the last couple of months) and was allowed to return to Canada. Seems like I wont have a problem if I return before July 31st and I intend to be back way...

hello everyone, I am a recent graduate from a Masters program, and I also have a bachelors degree (in total I've spent 7 years in Canada). I am also currently working in my field. My study permit and off-campus work permit will expire on July 31st and so I have applied for a post graduate work...

Hi everyone, I have a question about the new immigration rules as well. My 15 year old sister is currently visiting me in Canada for the holidays. During her time here, she gained admission to an International school to complete her last 2 years of high school (she had applied before coming...

These CIC workers will get to spend the holidays with their families but they don't want to give us the...

Hi everyone (especially akhan) Quick update: I received an email from CIC saying that my application status had been updated on Friday, December 13th. However, I did not see the actual notification/ request for passport submission until Sunday, December 15th in my CIC account so I just sent in...

oK thanks!! I received the exact same response from them and I was actually going to travel out because I thought it meant the same thing that you think it means i.e. when the application is finalized, we have the option of having the visa affixed to our passports in the country we will be...

I was in a similar situation 3 weeks ago when I made a trip to Boston. I have a valid study permit and work permit so I took those along with a letter from my university stating that I am a student, pay cheques from my employer and letter of employment as proof of ties to Canada. I also printed...

Thats terrible. I'm so sorry about that. Mine is a bit complicated. I applied initially on Nov 12th and when it was taking too long, I contacted them and they told me that I had applied to extend my stay as a visitor instead of a new TRV so I had to withdraw my application. Long story short, I...

Lucky you :DD when did you apply?

Hi Akhan I have a question for you about the option of putting the visa stickerfoil in a Canadian embassy abroad. Did you confirm this from the CPP ? because I am in a similar situation as you and I sent them an email and they responded saying "Please note that should your application be...
