    Waiting for PR Card after landing - add your case here

    I actually live in Toronto too. I called CIC on Monday and the lady told me that processing hadn't started and that my card hadn't been printed. The next day the card was in my mailbox. She must have made a mistake somewhere ::)

    CEC - Medical Examination

    The doctor sent my results on a Tuesday morning and I got my COPR in the mail the Tuesday after, so exactly one week. My ecas changed to medical results and decision made on the Saturday night. But iam_toby is right, it can take up to 2 weeks or even more and ecas is not reliable. All...

    Letter from CIC question about company using residential address

    This is though. Hopefully someone on this forum has received the same request from CIC and might be able to help you! You must have sent your T4 along with your application so that must be proof enough that you were at least employed by this company. Maybe they have doubts about your position?

    Letter from CIC question about company using residential address

    I just don't really understand why it matters that the office address is a residential address if that's where the business is officially registered. One would assume that the work experience gained is the same whether the office is in a residential or commercial building. I'm not sure what CIC...

    Why my profession in WP is different than my job designation?

    I was actually in a similar situation last year. I was a Sales & Marketing coordinator for a travel agency and my work permit said "executive assistant". I didn't notice the mistake until I left the country to go on vacation a couple months after my WP was issued. When I came back from vacation...

    Adding a new NOC Code - **URGENT**

    I listed two NOC codes on my application and my GCMS notes only shows one so this is probably normal. CIC might just be picking one NOC which is possibly the one that matches the job you spent the most time in. Just a guess though.

    Vacation pay counts as working experience?

    Hi angeland, I don't think this would work because CIC won't count work experience after your visa has expired.

    Noc codes doesn't match

    Hi artecita, As long as both jobs fall under NOC 0, A or B categories, you can use both by using two different NOC codes. I personally reported two different jobs with two different NOC codes in my application and passed eligibility.

    How come some people can do medicals in 2 days?

    Hi abirdie, I don't think there are many doctors out there who can upload the results in two days. They have to test your blood etc so 2 days seems not enough. Maybe you're confusing the 'medicals done' date with the 'medicals sent to CIC' date?

    First possible day to apply for PR through CEC

    May 31st sounds about right but, just to be sure, maybe you should send it on Monday June 2nd. You should also make sure that when you send your application, the reference letter is dated of June 2nd. If your employer writes the letter on May 26th and dates it May 26th, the visa officer won't...

    My friend went to see Dr Martin Taylor at 100 Richmond West and he was really happy with him. The entire process took less than 1h30 and he paid $225 (cash).

    From WH visa to YP visa

    Hi AvianPow, I also arrived in Canada on a WH visa and then applied for a YP work permit. I had studied tourism management in France and my job in Canada at the time was executive assistant in a marketing office. I got my YP with no issues in one month. Baker might be a little more tricky...

    CEC - Medical rules and change of marital status

    If you've applied under CEC, your medical results will be assessed under the rules of CEC, not sponsorship. Do you know if people with who have an ICD for the same reason as you eventually had to seek medical help in the long run?

    Should we include vacation details in Schedule A form

    Anybody please correct me if I'm wrong but my understanding is that you don't have to include vacation details on this form. Your travels are listed on the travel information form. So if you took a vacation while you were employed, you don't need to write it down. However, if you were on...
