Hi all, Just attended the CIIP session, and Im CONFUSED. People in the session (Attendees) were saying that money you take with you when you land in Canada you can bring tax free, but then anything after that is liable for tax. Is that correct?? This in one way makes sense, as its "income"...

Hey all, For the London VO, how long does it take for PPR/Ready for Visa and submitting those docs, to actually getting those docs and COPR back? I have special delivery confirmation that London VO received the docs on 9 June, and my flight is booked 10 July and job starts 18 July. Slight...

Hey all, is there a WhatsApp group for landing? Post PPR/Post COPR? Either a General group or one for BC (British Columbia). Please let me know as I really want to join one to join in on the chat on relocating and getting ready. I cant really post my number on the forum so publicly, but please...

Hi all, I just had amazing news. For my PR application, I have just received PPR (Passport Request (Or equivalent)) and I need to send some docs off as a final step. But basically, now that PR is almost done, Im wondering should I just cancel my IEC application? If I do it before Port of Entry...

International Experience Canada (IEC) with Invitation to Apply (ITA) Thread I could not see an IEC Submitted Thread (Only one for those in the pool), so I thought I would create one. Please post when you received your ITA invite, and when you submitted your application (if you have already...

Hey all, I am applying to IEC, but I have also applied to Express Entry FSW PR Visa. From my PR application, I have a Police Report, but this was issues in October 2015, 6 months and 27 day old now. Is this ok??? I could not find anywhere clearly where it stated for IEC how old the police...

Hi there, I know we have this forum for CEC, but what about IEC (International Experience Canada), its not clear which forum needs to be used for that. I would like to network with other IEC'ers and possibly join a WhatsApp group if there is one. Also, my original understanding was: CEC -...

Hey all, I applied for EE FSW a few months ago, AOR 25 Jan. My consultant also put me in for the IEC Pool (International Experience Canada) as this would give me a better chance to get to Canada quicker, and at the time we did not know how long the PR process would take, could take 3 months...

Hi all, a WhatsApp group to connect those planning to live in British Columbia. I noted only those with ITA, as this is primarily for connecting and networking for those who are more or less certain they will be in Canada in the next year, and gives an opportunity for those people to at least...

Maybe this could be a thread to highlight all the statuses and what they mean once you have applied. My initial question is the Medical status: Mine is "Not needed at this time" which is odd, as im sure its needed. Looking at the below explanation, it says that it means they have not yet...

Hey there, To others who have recieved the ITA, and started to complete their forms, I have a question. What questions came up JUST BEFORE the checklist was generated for your documents. Reason I ask is that my consultant is concerned that when we did it with him in his office (in Canada)...

My ITA deadline is tomorrow. I finally have a reference letter with job title, duties, durations, annual wage etc, but how important are the benefits in the job reference letter? At first I did not know what benefits meant, but know I heard its things like includes Dental, and Shares Schemes...

Hi all, I see a lot of talk about inland and outland applications, and that outland get processed faster. But how on earth, or where on earth, does it say what you are? I imagine I am outland as I am applying from the UK, but having said that, my immigration consultant is based in Canada, so I...

Hi all, I have had an ITA for Express Entry Federal Skilled Worker, and am in the process of getting everything together to submit the application. Just working on the travel history which has been hard to document. I am now also thinking of the International Experience Class Visa, as I was...

I thought you just needed the proof of funds from an account or accounts totalling the minimum needed from CIC for your application. However, reading the following link says: "The applicant should provide official letter(s) from financial institution(s) that list all current bank and investment...

As the title says, trying to work out if its better to do an upfront medical or wait till CIC ask for it. At first I thought waiting for CIC might be better, as some medical centres have said depending on the country and person, you might not need a full medical. But it seems for Canada its...

Hey all, I saw the topic about meeting up in Toronto, and thought it a great idea to do this in London/Manchester. Anyone applying from London/Manchester, UK to EE? Or any other immigration program? Similar suggestions to the Toronto one, coffee/chat and to support/share...

Hey all, Off-topic, as not immigration related, but related to the running of this forum. Anyone else get the "Connection Reset" errors occasionally when trying to view a topic from this forum? It just happened earlier, and then again when I clicked on topic reply links in email for the canada...
