You are worrying about US customs unnecessarily unless you have previously had a problem with them, like refusal of entry for any reason etc? When I moved to Canada i had a one way flight to USA and at Gatwick I was told at check in that homeland security needed to speak to me, I was concerned...

No I wasn't, my PR card application wouldn't link to myCIC at all. I imagine it wouldn've changed to Approved when the cbsa guy at the border said the photos were accepted on the 6th Nov.

Ok my card arrived today, landed 1st Aug, request new photos 27th Sept Photos received 7th Oct Card arrived 23rd Nov

You can enter Canada by land border as much as you like without a PR card as long as you have your COPR and passport. The problem is with airlines, they won't let you board a flight back into Canada without the PR card or a PRTD so you cannot fly, sail or arrive by train. So if you need to go...

So I cross the land border every week for work, I decided to ask the Canadian border today as it was a different crossing to usual and was quiet and I had to go inside anyway. He looked up on the system and told me my photos which I know were received via the tracking info on 7th Oct were...

Where the photos were taken doesn't matter, my original ones sent off before landing were from within Canada, same place PR application photos were taken and they requested new ones 2 months later so it's nothing to do with that. I'm still going with the theory that they are just so...

Indeed, i'm unable to travel outside Canada at Christmas because I don't expect i'll have my PR card in time so cannot book anything, the only alternative is to drive to USA and fly from there which for me wold be impractical or try to get a PRTD at the destination which is also risky and...

Why are cic asking so many people to resend photos? Presumably everyone gets them done as per the spec sheet (cannot imagine anyone inflicting delays on themselves by not following specs given how slow every step of the process is). So why are so many in spec photos being rejected, are cic just...

Well as usual problems, I landed 1st Aug after sending off pr card photos etc at start of July. Today I get an email saying your photos are not acceptable and you need to issue new one, nearly 3 months after I sent them... It's also a generic email so no idea why they were rejected. They were...

Sorry I didn't reply earlier, I feel less stressed by this delay than the whole waiting for PPR ordeal because it's just formalities now, at least the end is in sight. Lehbes, I only posted mine on the 10th from Winnipeg, because I never checked the tracker I don't know when it was delivered to...

I got PPR 30th June, didn't post my stuff until 10th July and today my CIC changed to approved. I haven't tracked the stuff I sent so I don't know when it arrived send I forgot to get the tracking number off the return envelope so it'll come when it comes. I didn't send a passport, just a copy.

Sorry but even if you moved at 12 you have a background in India the same as anyone else, which includes police, courts and whatever else they need to check. Early to mid March applications and only getting decisions last week so you are not far behind yet. Bilalseed, it was 5 days for me...

I've had my passport request today, my DM was on Monday. Question, the request letter is generic and asks for 2 photos, what were all the photos I sent with the application for?? Makes life difficult as I can't get them done now due to the long weekend before a week long work trip.

Let me just clarify, my background check on CIC was N/A until yesterday where it changed to in on progress again. It's when I check on ECAS that it says decision made. From my understanding, CIC was just stay as background in process until you get the PPR email, send documents and then actually...

I applied Mar 16 and I just checked and have decision made, finally!

You are including your time for your PNP application and nomination as well as your PR application. This thread refers to PR application only, everyone got nominated before they applied for PR. So when it says Jan/Feb/Mar applicants it means that's when they applied for PR, in 2016, you...

I think the reason he assumes you're express entry is because you got pr in 6 months, which is 1/3rd of the time it is taking everyone else. The only explanation I can think if you applied via PNP is you are coming from an "at risk" country? Most Ukrainians I know also got their PR within 6...

March 16 my application was received, background is still N/A. Whoever said semi drivers get a 6 month delay for crossing US border a lot due to CBSA checks, how exactly did you find out that's what caused the delay given that CIC share nothing whatsoever about the process? Since I applied...

Thanks shez, I tried the "wrong" options and got into a queue, should've tried that all along, how much time did I waste trying to do it the correct way. Anyway turns out they didn't have my medicals at all and never got the case specific enquiry I sent either, some serious issues with that...

I'm really struggling with this, it's infuriating. I did an upfront e-medical in October, I've been assured by the doctor it was uploaded. I had medical request on 4th April along with with "reviewing results of medical exam" which according to this forum people have got who haven't done a...
