    PPR Envelope Size

    We got our PPR (outland, but in Canada) on March 14 and sent our requested documents right away. They were signed for at CPC-Ottawa on March 17. We have not yet received COPR back in the mail. I'm starting to worry that it's because the return envelope that we enclosed was a half size Xpresspost...

    Outland Now in Canada due to COVID-19 -- How to Land?

    My wife is in the same position. She is American, came to Canada on an IEC in September, we applied outland in December. Got our PPR earlier this month, passport was received on March 17. Haven't heard anything since. We live in Newfoundland and so there would be a lot of travel and potential...

    CPC-O

    Unfortunately, that's a list of international VACs, which are not the same as CPCs. On the same website, I had already found a list of CPCs, but nowhere does it say whether or not they are open. I'll reiterate - does anyone know if CPC-O is still open?

    Spousal sponsorship application

    Please take some time to read and familiarize yourself with the application process. Inland applications regularly take about a year to process. For inland applications, sponsorship status approval happens near the end of the application process, and yes, PR status is dependent on sponsorship...

    CPC-O

    Does anyone know if CPC-O is still working? My wife got her PPR March 14, passport was received March 17. Is there any chance of receiving COPR? She is American, our application is outland, but she is living with me in Canada.

    DECEMBER 2019 *OUTLAND* SPOUSAL SPONSORSHIP

    Anyone else wait an inordinate amount of time for medical passed? I'm seeing on the tracker that most medicals are passed within a few days. My wife did hers on Feb 12 and no change to show that it's even been received.

    SA is not the same as AOR2. Did you get confirmation that the local visa office is processing the application, or did you get confirmation that the sponsor has been approved?

    Canada immigration home visit

    if you look at the case that was quoted above, the red flag that was raised on the application was that the applicant hadn't updated a driver's license. That's not uncommon. They actually state that otherwise there was a lot of proof provided. I know that home visits are rare. That doesn't mean...

    Canada immigration home visit

    I'm not concerned about it in my particular case. I have no reason whatsoever to expect that there will be any concerns raised about the genuineness of my relationship with my wife. Because I have the capacity to have empathy for others, I'm thinking about how I might respond to something of...

    Canada immigration home visit

    I would certainly prefer to answer interview questions, however personal, in a structured setting than to have people show up at my door. It would also be pretty inconvenient in terms of work - I often work 26 hour shifts straight and have to give 3 months notice in advance to take a day off. My...

    Canada immigration home visit

    I've never heard of this occurring, but that certainly doesn't mean it isn't possible. I would find it very invasive and inconvenient, personally, especially if it were on short notice.
