    I applied via an attorney who has been practicing in Canadian immigration for over 4 decades. He clearly told me there is no such thing as “application speeds based on NOC codes”. I had applied with 4 other people. I was a non-IT NOC code and my 4 friends were all software engineers (with the...

    No, it doesn’t. Anybody who suggests otherwise is spreading baseless rumors. There is no evidence of applications being processed faster or slower due to NOC codes.

    This is absolutely incorrect. Please don’t spread misinformation. You can very much have as many NOCs as you like - you need not be restricted to a single NOC. Only thing to keep in mind is that at least 1 year in a single NOC is required to be eligible. Beyond that, you can have as many NOCs...

    Soft landing experiences - please share here

    Hi all, I plan to do my soft landing in February 2019 and return in about 7 days to the US. I will be making my permanent move to Canada in the later half of the year. Was wondering if any people who have successfully done soft landings can share their experiences. Were you asked questions...

    Well I never even saw my profile change to IP2. It was in “We will let you know when BGC starts” till the very end. That is more unusual than many other things. But I didn’t see the point in panicking. I too saw people with my timeline move to IP2. But just because someone else’s application...

    It didn’t. You have 30 days to submit your passport after the PPR. I got PPR in end of Oct. I submitted my passport only in end of Nov - right before the deadline. I got it back in first week of Jan. That’s about 5 weeks - not two months. My attorney had advised that anywhere between 2-5 weeks...

    1. My status did not change accurately online. The only change I ever saw was “medical passed”. After that it was in the status “we will let you know when your background check starts” till the very end when I got my PPR. Quite clearly, this meant that my background check had started but didn’t...

    Hi Sumeet. My AOR was Aug 2. I had two NOCs - 2 years in 1122 (business management consulting) and 1 year in 0111 (Financial management). My actual experience is over 10 years and I entered all of it in my profile. But only a max of 3 years matters. This is what my most recent 3 years were split...

    Hey all, Just dropped by to say goodbye. I just received my passport back today - and this probably marks the completion of my PR journey. I wish all the VERY best to all of you who are still waiting and I wish and hope you will all get your PRs soon too! I will try to check in on the thread...

    Not everyone uses immitracker. Myself and 4 of my friends had applied together and none of us used immitracker. As such, I know of several people who use immitracker to "see" information - but they don't necessarily upload their own details on there. Immitracker is simply only a small sample set...

    The only idiot here is you. Look at where this thread is classified on the site. It is under Express Entry. The only idiot here is you if you think this thread is for visitor visas. Go to the website Homepage, go to "forums", click on "Express Entry/Expression of interest", under that...you'll...

    As someone who has received PPR already, here are my suggestions: 1) Chances of rejection at this stage are slim. Also, if you are someone who hasn't paid your RPRF upfront, the verbiage on the RPRF request (when you receive it) is usually a giveaway as to where you are in the process. My...

    Incorrect. This thread is classified on the site under "Express Entry/Expression of Interest". Under that category, there is an August 2018 AOR thread - which is this thread. Therefore this is an Express Entry thread. Stop wasting your time and ours if you have nothing useful to say.

    This thread is for PR applicants. Your visitor visa info is of no use. Yes, I will ignore your irrelevant information.

    The PPR letter clearly states it needs to be mailed to a certain address. You might be talking of a different situation - which doesn’t apply to most of us.

    Thanks for the response. But this thread is specifically for Express Entry Permanent Resident applicants - not visitor visas. This thread has been classified in this forum clearly under the “Express Entry/Expression of Interest” category. Visitor visas have a very different timeline and...

    For those of you who have received their PPRs (US based), how much time did it take for you to get your passports back after you submitted them? I submitted mine around third week of Nov (within the 30 day period after getting PPR) but haven't got them back yet.

    Ah, ok. I know a few places in LA but I guess you’re just too far from there!
