    Quarantine and SIN

    Actually no, it’s just that bank, service Ontario refuses to accept contract for UPS box as a proof of address. So we didn’t try using PO Box address for SIN. Maybe it would have worked...

    Quarantine and SIN

    Yes, UPS box didn’t work. I should be a bank statement, bill from cell phone or lease.

    My landing in COVID-19

    When I finished my self-isolation, I went to the bank and got my accounts set up. They asked me to provide an actual address for the credit card though (didn't accept UPS box address), so I had to give them an address of my friend in Canada. The credit card is mailed to you after 1-2 weeks (you...

    Quarantine and SIN

    I am going to get a UPS box. I read on this forum that some people here did it that way. I am not sure if they accept it, but I am gonna try. If not - I will ask their advice on what to do.

    My landing in COVID-19

    I’d like to share my landing and self-isolation experience during COVID-19. Perhaps it will be helpful to someone who will try to come here during this time. 1. On our AirCanada flight to Toronto, we were provided with cold snacks, all vegan. So, there were no question like “fish” or “chicken”...

    Declaration of goods (settlers effects)

    Didn’t declare anything at all. The officer asked if we are bringing furniture or any other stuff later - we said no. And he just said we don’t need to declare anything. According to my understanding of what the officer told us, this list includes some stuff that you are bringing to Canada...

    Transiting in London airport and coronavirus

    We managed to buy Aeroflot. Because we were unsure that they let us out of Russia (with the restrictions in place), we didn’t book the next flight from London. But at check in time they (Aeroflot) required us to but the ticket from London, and said that once we got the ticket we would able to...

    Transiting in London airport and coronavirus

    Landslide transit is not forbidden in UK. You just need to have some place to stay to self-isolate. We stayed in a hotel near the airport. I have to say the airport is quite empty, hotels are empty too. The room service doesn’t work, you order from the restaurant and they give you food in...

    Declaration of goods (settlers effects)

    I know this has been asked many times, but it is still not clear to me what exactly should I declare, and what shouldn’t. We are coming to Canada and bringing not much actually. Obviously, a few personal items (phones, laptop, ...). So I have to declare a very old not expensive phone (which...

    Transiting in London airport and coronavirus

    So for those who are or will be in a similar situation: 1. Even though we bought 2 separate tickets from 2 different airline companies, when checking in for our first flight to London, we were offered to redirect our luggage to our connecting flight from London to Toronto. So we didn’t have to...

    Transiting in London airport and coronavirus

    We have read the rules many times... it looks like we might not need transit visa for overnight stay plus we don’t have to quarantine for 14 days, only for the period of our stay (which is 1 night)....

    Transiting in London airport and coronavirus

    Thank you for your reply. Looks like we have to stay home and wait for the time being. Our COPR will expire next week. Hopefully, we will be eligible for extension.

    Transiting in London airport and coronavirus

    Hello guys! Our visa is expiring soon, and we are thinking to try to fly to Canada before it expires. Looks like our options are quite limited: we have to transit in London, Heathrow for 20 hours. Our flights are operated by two different airline companies, so we’ll have to enter the UK, check...

    Received a request letter

    Hi guys. I still can’t believe this is happening. But I won’t settle until I see visa in my passport and a confirmation letter)) Despite having an abnormal title (just “Request letter”, not “Ready for visa” or sth like that), this is the PPR letter. The visa is on its way and I’d like to share...

    Received a request letter

    Should I expect updates on all the fields (like Background Check, Eligibility, etc...) in my account? Or they will only update once I get my passport back from them?

    Received a request letter

    I didn't expect it to be that quick) The request is a message (a pdf file) in the account (under the Messages section). The email itself contains nothing. It is just a notification that there is a new message in my account.

    How to determine current processing stage?

    Hi forum! I see all over this forum people mention their applications being at IP1 / IP2 stages. What is that and how can I know what stage am I at? Could anyone refer me to somewhere where I can read about it? Thank you in advance! :)
