I landed as PR today in Victoria, BC. Worked half day today and will have my first full day in the office tomorrow, really looking forward to the first paycheck since August last year! The whole process for me took about 13 months. Mississauga took over 12 1/2 months to process my case, Ottawa...

They received mine Feb 2, and sent the COPR Feb 8. Got is yesterday and landed as PR today in Victoria, BC. This part of the whole process was quite fast!

Update for the spreadsheet: PPR, Feb 1 COPR received Feb 12 Landed today, Feb 13, and am now a permanent resident. I had a pleasant landing experience. Got my COPR yesterday in the mail, took the ferry from Victoria to Port Angeles where I explored the local pub scene, came back to Victoria...

Probably not. I've been in Canada as a visitor since beginning of September last year. My wife declared all our stuff (4 people) as a returning Canadian when we flew in to Vancouver, including the shipped container that arrived here two months ago. We explained our situation to immigration at...

My GCkey account updated today to "Final decision - Your application was approved". Hope that means COPR will come shortly so I can land as a permanent resident and start working.

If you provide an email and link your application to your GCkey account when asked to do so, then no, no updates will be sent through regular mail. The only thing that will be sent through regular mail will be ( if it is an Outland application) will be the COPR issued that you use to land as a...

Got PPR yesterday and sent copy of my passport, Annex A and pictures to Ottawa right away. It's already been delivered, so now I guess I just have to wait for my COPR. Almost there!

Yeah, nothing s needed for your kids as they are not part of the application.

In September I sent them our property contract ( we bought a house in Victoria), when getting the request in January I also sent them utility bills and copies of sponsor's drivers licence and BC services card.

Guess they finally decided I'm not a threat to Canada...just got PPR email 15 min ago. Not if they can be speedy in Ottawa to issue COPR I'll be able to start working shortly!

Woke up to an email with PPR this morning, the wait in limbo is finally almost over!

I scanned the documents and saved a digital copy. Definitely not nuts to save a copy of everything you send.

I kind of hoped and expected that I'd be able to land before March, since it will then be 14 months after my application was received by IRCC. Oh, how I love that I was "eligible" for OB570 processing in Mississauga.

I was just in contact with my MPs assistant again, who is actually trying to help as much as he can. The only update he could get from IRCC was that they extended the validity of my medical from March 2018 to March 2019. Guess they don't plan to finalize my application anytime soon...

My application date is Jan 16 2017 by the way

Yup, I'm still not done. Had complete silence from IRCC between February 2017 to January 2018. Looks like they're finally actually working on my file, but who knows how long it'll take until they're actually done...

I ordered notes in September, saw NRT in info sharing, dated mid February 2017.

That is way to long for anyone to wait...congrats!

I sure hope it won't be months of "background check in process" for me, after a week of "background check...." and almost 13 months total I just want to put this whole process behind me and start a proper life again...
