I would not believe IRCC "average" too much. Somebody at work had their PR card renewed last year and he told me it took 6 months to complete the process.

PR renewal takes about 180 days now so you better start it early than late.

I second this. We did it back in 2014, when they asked us if we are staying we said we are returning back to the US and then will come back to Canada permanently the following summer. When asked why we need to return to the US, I said I had to finish my studies. Be prepared to asnwer this...

I used copy of child's passport, copy of child's PR card, and copy of birth certificate. It worked fine.

Call MPNP program/provincial office in Winnipeg and ask for their advice. They won't forbid you moving to another province, just tell them honestly what is going on. It's important to let them know so when the time comes for you to apply for citizenship there won't be any "surprises" for you.

I mean local IRCC office, Winnipeg in my case.

Sharing my experience with the passport application. Was applying in person for three passports a week after our oath ceremony (family of 3). The Passport Canada agent said that in their system my wife and child appear as they are citizens but I am showing as a non-citizen. She advised me to...

Try contacting the airlines and provide them with travel dates and ask if they have records of her travel with them in their system(i.e. copies of the airline tickets, etc.). The airlines are required to keep that information for some time at least, not sure for how long. There might be a fee...

Yes IRCC would need to see the adress on at least one pience of ID. Do your parents have their drivers license?

They should be fine without ontario photo id. Health card contains address and their names and their PRs have their photos and signatures, their names is a common element which links both PR and health cards to IRCC will see that these IDs belong to the same person. They should be fine with PR...

I saved airline boarding passes for those cases when my passport was not stamped, I asked the interviewing officer if she wanted to see them but she said no.

Had my interview several weeks ago and the officer never asked about my IELTS certificate.
