Hi everyone, I just received both me and my husband's PR card on June 1. We landed in Peach Arch on April 6.

That sounds very smooth to me! Thank you for sharing!

My situation is a bit different where I applied under CEC with my common law partner from the US. As a result, we did find a notary public to certify the form. It costed around $50. For people immigrating on their own and not being sponsored by their Canadian partner, I have seen cases in this...

Hi everyone! I landed on April 5, 2016 where the boarder officer did not take my new pictures. I wonder if I should promptly submit the pictures to them to avoid further delay. For those of you who have received a formal request, may I ask what information is required along with the pictures...

Hi everyone, I just landed last night in BC on April 5. The officer did not take my photos of the new size. Would you suggest that I should maybe promptly mail them the pictures? Thank you!

Hi everyone, Sorry I have not been in the loop. I see on the website that the PR card is taking around 53 days. However, when I check the google excel, most of ppl have received theirs after waiting a lot longer. I am travelling on June 8th so just wonder, if I can expect mine within 2...

Hi guyz, do the ECAS show a lag? I received an email requesting more information on March 2. However, ECAS said " we have requested additional info on March 9 ....". Just wonder if that is referring to the same info request. Thanks!

Aug 15 applicant with common law partner ECAS: changed to DM Ready for visa email received this morning Feb 29, 2016 at 6am (PST)

Thank you so much for your reply!!! This helps a lot!

Hi Guyz, I am an Aug 15, 2014 applicant. My common law partner and I just received MR around Jan 20th, 2016. We are going to get married in March and it is UNLIKELY that our PR will be done before that. 1) Do I need to inform CIC immediately or should I wait until we are actually married? 2)...

Thank you for your reply. Yes i did email them but nothing yet... has been a couple days...

Hi everyone, I am an Aug 15 applicant - I received MR for my partner on the 21st but nothing for me, though I am the principal applicant. I emailed CIC on Friday but haven't heard anything back yet. Any suggestions? Should I just go ahead and do an upfront without the MR? Not sure if they make...

Just got the MR for my common law partner 156pm PST Jan 21; I haven't got mine yet but I am the principal applicant - will email them tomorrow. I am Aug 15 applicant.

Thank you very much. Yes, my HR just clarify with the legal department and they said I am good to go. The location means nothing.

I have the same question in mind. Just went to POE and got a spousal owp valid till 2017. But what if my spouse graduated earlier than this? Does that mean my work permit is not valid?

Hi there, I am under the same situation. Do you get your open work permit amended? Also, may I ask if your work permit mentioned "post grad work permit" anywhere under condition or remark please?

Hi FKL, Could you provide a bit more information regarding this? I just applied for a spousal OWP and the location is stated as Burnaby (my residential city). Now my employer is questioning if I can work in Vancouver... I am thinking of amending it without fee

Hi guyz, I just flagpoled and got a new spousal work permit (although I had to give up my PGWP). However, the CSBA officer only charged my $155. I later learnt that I should have paid for the $100 open work permit fee. Any thought? Should I pay CIC now? Or should I just wait till they send me...

Sigh Sigh I hope not! My PGWP is expiring in Feb 2016, so I am thinking of applying the SOWP by late September (and hopefully, receiving it by Jan 2016). Would it be weird if I apply to early?
