    Can a Principle Applicant do the landing before Spouse?

    Thanks for sharing the other post Zardoz. It's quite unfortunate to see reaching at the final stage and been asked to reopen the application. As that applicant was a resident in Quebec and their program is bit different than Ontario or other provinces so I could see a reason behind reopening...

On that document it states in bold "Please wait for the visa office to issue the CPR to your family members before you go to a CIC office or a port of entry...

    New SIN Number based on COPR Letter

    This query came to my mind when I visited the Service Canada office over the weekend and was told by a front associate that you cannot renew or apply for a new SIN number until you bring a PR card with you.

    New SIN Number based on COPR Letter

    Hi Hichaman, Based on my knowledge and friends experiences, you need to land first then can apply for a new SIN number. I don't think Service Canada will issue a new number without seeing a proof of landing (COPR stamped or signed off) which will represent that you are now living in Canada as...
