Don't take my word for it but I think I read somwhere in the published IRCC guidelines that if it expires between the day you received the ITA and the day you submit a complete application, you are still eligible. You might want to read up on that though.

Hello, when I landed in Canada in October, I declared that there would be no goods to follow to the customs officers. Now I will be going on a business trip back home and, of course, I came up with quite a long list of things I forgot that I would now like to bring. How do I go about this? Can I...

You are right, I did use some strong language there but that was because I just returned from a really bad experience when I typed that and I was pretty angry. Thanks for your opinion.

I came here in October and to be honest, I feel like it was a downgrade from my life in western Europe. The range of apartments I've seen goes from disgusting to acceptable. If you want a small apartment considered nice by European standards, expect to pay $ 1300 a month. Finding one is a pain...

Hello, does anyone have experience with settling in Quebec after receiving PR under the federal program? Is it legal? Can I tell them a Quebec address during the landing procedure? Any issues later on regarding citizenship? Thanks!

Does Austria pass as well? lol

Also, the letter says: I just called every courier company I know of and none of them will schedule a pickup date by e-mail. What do I do? ??? I asked the VO but the auto-response said that it can take them a month to respond - that is too long as I only have 30 days. Calling them is pretty...

Hello guys, I got my "Ready for Visa / Prêt pour Visa" email yesterday. Because my passport will expire in about a year from now, I was thinking maybe it would be good if i got a new one before I leave my country. Do you know if changing passport at this point will cause any issues or can I go...

Guys, I am in Canada as a tourist until Tuesday. It's awesome here. My status changed to background check in progress on Wednesday. How long do you think it will be until a decision is made? Any chance of me being able to apply for the PR card here in case something awesome happens on Monday...

Alright, thanks for your optimism!

To be sure you can always bring a copy of the contract with you that gives you permission to take the car outside the country for 2 months...

I took the instructions on EE about only needing an ECA for the highest credential too literal. Turned out they wanted one for my first degree as well. After I got rejected I had that assessed and submitted it to CIC together with a request for reconsideration, then they re-opened my...

Anyone? I asked IRCC but didn't get a response yet...

It only takes a couple of hours and you probably have a testing center on campus or nearby. And, come on, you can spare the 200 Euros with two degrees and a job in the UK... Put it into perspective of all those people from countries that make a tenth of you.

Mon projet just answered that question for me:

Hello, my application for PR in the FSWP is currently being processed, but obviously the outcome is unknown. I got the ITA in December - see signature. Is it legal to apply for QSWP at the same time as a backup? Thanks!

I would say: 1. Yes 2. Current job 3. I would say no as for job experience inside Canada there is a specific rule that says employment while being a full time student does not count. If you are a university teacher then you might however argue that learning things is part of your job. What are...

Hello forum, as you can see in my signature, my application has recently been re-opened after I asked IRCC for a reconsideration and submitted an extra ECA. Does anyone know if they will re-process the entire application or if they are going to carry on where they stopped before? Am I at the...

Awesome, thanks!
