I haven't. Became PR on Jan 26th.

Yes if you didn't have a SIN before. No if you have a temporary SIN (900...) already and need to change it. This information is in the information sheet I got from the officer handling my PR.

I went flag poling yesterday in Pt Roberts, WA. I drove across the border (to get cheap gas and pick up a package). I did not tell the US border person I was going to get my PR on the way back (mistake! because as you guys have been talking about one needs a piece of paper to prove that you...

I'm so happy to report that I got my CPR in the mail yesterday!! :) It was issued on Jan 12th. I will go flag poling in Pt Roberts (a tiny peninsula that reaches over the border. It's a 30min drive from Vancouver and lots of people go there to receive US mail, which actually travels through...

oh i see. awesome. has anyone here ever done this in Pt Roberts?

thanks. but what happens after that/what will instructions be? Do i have to go to a border or visa office to receive the PR card?

Hi all, my online Status was updated today (or late yesterday). It says now: "Decision Made" 1.We received your application for permanent residence on June 2, 2014. 2. We started processing your application on January 9, 2015. 3. Medical results have been received. 4. A decision has been made...

yeeey! congrats!!! that's awesome!

actually quoting myself, because I just found out I won't get PPR because I'm from a Visa exempt country :) I have to wait for a confirmation of my permanent residence via regular mail. Since I'm just not familar with this, a few questions: Do I have to go to a border or visa office with a...

I noticed a bunch of people got PPR. Did you get notified via email? I still haven't heard from them and my status online still says in process. :( I hope to turn grey in the list soon!!

I know about this cap and the overall of 25.000 is also not nearly being reached. I was referring to a previous comment in which a member said there was another quote which has been reached and therefore we won't get processed towards PPR until 2015.

I wonder if we can find information about this anywhere? Why would they have a quota if they have cap numbers already? I still have my hopes up!!

Hey there, I just checked my status again. It still says 'In Process', but they added a second line about my medical results: 1. We received your application for permanent residence on June 2, 2014. 2. Medical results have been received. I know they also received additional documents on Nov...

Hi all, I received the Medical Exam request in Oct 17th, Payment of Right of Permanent Residence Fee (RPRF) request, and also a request for a new original police certificate for yourself from Germany (translated of course). I have now 60 days to submit those. My application was received June...

Thanks a lot cantaloupe. Very helpful!! Wow that google doc. That's so cool. Can I add myself to that?

Hi there, I'm new here. I've looked at this page before but always felt quite overwhelmed with the number of posts... however, generally I think this is great to have this forum to share experiences and I'd like to be part of this. I'm originally from Germany and moved to Vancouver in 2011 to...

Hi all, I'm new here. 860 pages?? :o oh my! I'm not going to read this... I've been skimming through a bit and saw that people post timelines. Usually after sending the application to CIC it takes about a year? to receive the acceptance and then one has to go to get a medical check? I'm...
