    Can't register for CRA account

    Hi guys- I just received my PR in the end of January. I've been working in Canada since 2016 with a temp. SIN, and just received the new one. When I try to register for an online CRA account, it first tells me I need to " Validate your identity—social insurance number" When I enter my SIN...

    INLAND APPLICATIONS 2015

    Just received my PR card in the mail on Friday (March 10). My landing appt was on January 31st for reference- pretty much in line with what others have said- it took almost exactly 6 weeks to receive in the mail. So relieved and greatful to have the immigration and CIC journey behind me and...

    I was told to wait 24 hours after landing for it to update in their systems before going in to get a SIN number. It might be different at different locations/ provinces though- I would definitely ask in case you waste time waiting in line for a SIN number and end up having to go back anyway

    Just finished my landing interview today.. anti-climactic compared to the rest of the process with CIC.. :) Good luck to everyone on here- this forum is the best. One question- does anyone know anything about bringing furniture/goods into Canada? I think there is a form to fill out, but the...

    Just received my landing interview email!! scheduled in Ottawa for January 31st. We received SA last night, no AIP at all. I was expecting to wait another month to hear anything- I'm shocked they pushed the last steps through so fast! I hope this means they will finish the rest of us 2015's...

    Actually I had a representative that we used to filled out our forms originally. I sent in the form asking to remove her as our rep. and immediately after I sent it in electronically, I could access MyCic. That's separate from ecas, though. You can access ecas with our without a representative...

    Thank you! I'm sure you will hear something soon- I'm obsessing over MyCiC and ecas too. It seems like they're trying to speed these last August ones through

    Just checked my ecas this morning- PR application status changed to DM :D Yesterday Sponsorship application status changed to DM, and medicals changed to passed on my cic. We haven't received any communication at all from CIC yet. I'm in Ottawa btw.

    IMM5406E List any of your children who have been adopted by others--Seriously?

    As a person who was adopted, I agree- I find this question pretty offensive and inappropriate in that type of situation. However, they are most likely referring to open adoptions. I'm not a lawyer, but I would imagine there would be a way to write a letter to the effect of 'closed...

    American/Canadian double taxation

    I ended up doing my taxes myself last year by hand :-\ ??? I could not find one tax professional willing to take on cross border taxes. Mine were not that complicated anyway, so I did half through turbo-tax (letting the program do the math), and filled out the actual paper form and mailed them...

    US Elections effects on Processing times.

    I would have to agree with you that most Americans are clueless nobs who think they can just pack up and leave for Canada- but I wouldn't quite sell American spousal sponsorship to Canada as 'pretty easy and fast' either.. I'm an American who got some pretty bad legal advice to apply Inland...

    There's absolutely nothing wrong (no one would look down on you/your application) for taking steps to maintain your health.. including mental health! It's really hard to wait and have so much uncertainty. Aside from that, it has nothing to do with your application. There's no way cic would...
