    Eligibility

    When I was going through this I didn't want to guess and went and saw a professional immigration consultant. For $150 they will lay it all out to you: do the calculations, tell you your odds, how to improve them, so I'd say just do that. There's a will, there's a way.

    Eligibility

    Can you do anything to bump up your score somehow? Work a year or two maybe? Also depends on what you're doing in Canada - working or studying. Are you sure this is the right time to apply?

    PR cards can't be issued without new photos

    You're right. It says "If we do not receive the requested info within 30 days (...), your application for a permanent resident card will be considered canceled." Oversight on my part. Thanks!

    Landing possible at LANSDOWNE?

    LANDED! Everything was quick and painless. We arrived at the American border office on Saturday at 3:40pm and left at 4:40pm. It took them an hour to make out the paper of refusal of entry into the US but only because their computer system was being glitchy. There were no other travelers but us...

    Landing possible at LANSDOWNE?

    Thank you bellaluna, but this thread still doesn't answer the question why Immigration is not on the list of services provided at Lansdowne. Or is the website out of sync with reality?

    Landing possible at LANSDOWNE?

    Applied for PR in June 2017, PGWP expired in March 2018. I did not understand what implied status meant, I was mislead to think one has implied status while one's PR application is in progress so i didn't apply to extend my PGWP. Now I discover my status is lost, I can't work, don't know how...
