    Passport to CPC Ottawa - December 2016

    I got my COPR today and both Last Entry Date and Original Entry Dates seem to be incorrect. Should I send a request for amendment right away? Does anyone have any experience with this? The CIC website says the processing time for amendments is 6 months :o

    Passport to CPC Ottawa - December 2016

    The CIC website is pretty specific that you can only cross border with CoPR (if you don't have your PR card yet) if you cross in a private vehicle.

    Passport to CPC Ottawa - December 2016

    The return tracking is the tracking number for the canada post return envelope you included when you sent your passport. If you enter this tracking number in the canadapost website you can see whether or not it's been activated which indicates the return envelope is on its way.

    understanding GCMS notes

    I have raised this question in other threads before with no luck, but does anyone know what a "canceled" backgound check means? My GCMS notes show that my initial background check was canceled after around 8-9 months and a new background check was requested. I am now a week into the 16th month...

    Those who Waiting EXPRESS ENTRY in Six Months and not finalized!!!!

    The notes indicate that my background check was canceled nearly 9 month after it was originally requested, then a new one was requested in May 2016 (nearly a year after I submitted my application) and they're still waiting on the result of it. It's been 3 months since the new background check...

    Those who Waiting EXPRESS ENTRY in Six Months and not finalized!!!!

    For all of those who follow this thread, I will hit the 15 months mark and enter the 16th month of waiting tomorrow. Based on the notes and my many followups with the CIC it seems like they somehow failed to start my background check until almost 11 months after I submitted my application.

    Sorry for some reason I can't access the part of the CIC website that lists the processing times. Is this 27 biz days or calendar days?

    Bridging Open Work Permit (BOWP) under express entry - connect here

    I applied for BOWP on June 12th and I haven't heard anything back yet. MyCIC says it's still being processed and a decision hasn't been made.

    Updating EE profile after marriage in Canada to a Canadian

    What I did was to send them a note informing them of the updated status together with a copy of a proof for our relationship and my partner's proof of status in Canada. I also explained that I'm not adding my partner as an applicant to the file and it's just to update my application. This was a...

    After 13.5 months, I spoke to the CIC call center agent today and she told me my BG check is still in progress. She told me I will likely hear back the results in the second half of July though. Does anyone know whether agents' estimates are accurate or do they even have access to the timelines...

    Those who Waiting EXPRESS ENTRY in Six Months and not finalized!!!!

    If you have applied for an extension and haven't gotten the result yet, you will have "implied status" until you get the results, meaning you can continue your status (worker, student, visitor) until there's a result. You may lose your "implied status" if you travel out of Canada in that period...

    Hi Eagle. I'm still waiting on this. I just posted a question to this thread. I wonder if you know the answer to this. It's really confusing and having waited for 13 and a half months I'm now really frustrated because I can't understand what's going on with my file...

    what does "Cancelled" security screening mean?

    While everything else seem to have passed in my application, I have been waiting for several months on my background check to complete. My latest GCSM notes shows 2-3 entries labeled as canceled. It seems like they have requested a BG check then after a few months cancelled it and ordered a new...
