If someone loses their PR card - reports it via the webform to IRCC, and then it's found again (same day) - what's the best approach to STOP them cancelling it especially given the current 287 day wait for a new one? I assume submitting a new web form and maybe phoning them (assuming this is...

I'm trying to submit my application but I'm hitting a small (well a number of small) issues. My eligibility period is listed as yesterday 1/20/14-1/20/19. However I arrived in Canada February '14. So, under step 10a I included my address from my last month in the UK (listed from 2010 when I...

So I got my CoPR back in March and it had the wrong eye colour and height, off by 6cm. The eye colour is more concerning as it is very clearly wrong. I was told here that they could correct at PoE but check with CIC, CIC confirmed (actually took them months, they did it just after I landed)...

Hi, Just a hopefully helpful FYI for people. After days of attempting to login to the CRA and getting nothing but a ERR041, and not being able to get through on the phone (continually engaged) I got a human being! Apparently, once you get a new SIN number - you need to re-register with the CRA...

First time posting on this board. I got my PR a couple weeks ago and am keen to buy after almost 2.5 years renting an overpriced apartment (all apartments in Toronto are overpriced imho). My question is about the fact that realtors seem to want to force people to sign a exclusive contract...

Just a short one to confirm my landing experience yesterday. I got my CoPR a couple of months back but due to a planned vacation abroad did not want to land (and already a settled resident on work permit) and risk not getting PR card in time. I did not want to land on my port of entry due to a...

Not really sure where this fits, but wanted to provide my own eTA experience. Munich, two weeks ago, there was an announcement that you needed to get a red stamp on your passport (eTA confirmation) if you wanted to get onto the plane. This is despite the apparent leniency period. Yesterday...

This is just a for information post for those planning on landing soon, most specifically with an ESTA. There are possibly other posts I've missed, but the ESTA form has been updated, it wants tons more details now including a point of contact in the US - apparently one can enter Unknown or a...

Bit of a strange one here, wondering if anyone has had this experience? Been here on a work permit over 2 years, COPR ready to go once i get back from a vacation. Then today I get a letter from a bank saying "We need your confirmation about where you're a tax resident". Admittedly, the bank has...

Hi, So the eTA has a "leniency" period until the fall as long as one has valid travel documents, although what these are beyond a passport appears to have been left out. Nothing I've so far found seems to be really clear on what this actually means. Other than - get one if you can. Has anyone...

Hi, Has anyone had experience with multiple COPR issues and any idea how forgiving officers are? Mine has the wrong eye color (yes for some reason they spelt it the american way) and also says I shrunk 6cm. From my Canadian driving license height. I know they can correct minor things, but...

Hi there, I'm struggling to find information on this, and I'm hoping I'm just panic-ing for no reason :(, but I got my PPR last week and assume I get my COPR within 6 weeks. I sent my docs to Ottawa hours after getting the email requesting them. However, based on what I've been able to find...
