Hi, I ended up not needing the PRTD as my PR card arrived in time. Sorry I can't help. You might try to contact immigration and find out what is causing the processing delay and when you can expect your PR card.

I'm planning to move from Oakland, California, to Vancouver within the next month or two and am trying to figure out the best way to move my belongings. I'm not planning to take much or any furniture, but have several hundred books as well as clothes, a desktop computer, and musical instruments...

I need to apply for a PRTD by email and want to make sure I'm doing it right. Has anyone gone through this process? I'm a new permanent resident, currently living in the US. I entered Canada in March to activate my permanent residency (on the very last day you could still enter without...

I actually got through to Service Canada today (after several days of trying). The person said that yes, you can apply from abroad and send the documents by registered mail, and to include a letter explaining why the application is urgent. But she also said that since they're doing everything by...

The third bullet point on that page says "individuals applying from outside Canada" are eligible. And the application form itself (linked by Canuck78) says "If you currently reside outside Canada, you are eligible to apply by mail. Follow Steps 1 to 3 to submit your application form and provide...

Thanks, do you have a source for this? This page (sorry, I linked the wrong page in the OP) says "individuals applying from outside Canada" can apply by mail, and the address you fill out on the application form has a "country" field, which suggests they will mail it outside Canada.

I'm a new PR and have not yet moved to Canada but want to get a SIN. (I realize that right now they're only processing urgent requests, but I can't start work without a SIN so I'm hoping my request will qualify.) According to the government website you can apply for a SIN from outside Canada...

Looks like "landing appointment" (despite what it sounds like) actually means appointment at an IIRC office for people who are already in Canada and acquiring PR status. So it does not refer to the procedure that happens when you land at an airport.

I got the "Ready for Visa" email earlier this week (whoo hoo!) and I'm preparing to send my photos in for the CoPR. I'm not sending my passport because I'm not from a country that requires a visa. Silly question... What size return envelope should I send in the package? Can you use a regular...

I got a ghost update today (AOR August 2019). I don't know if it's the first/second/third because I haven't been checking every day. Any thoughts on what this means? Here's the full status... Review of eligibility We are reviewing whether you meet the eligibility requirements. Review of...

I recevied an invitation to apply and submitted my application with all the documents requested on 8/19. They did not request language test results, but I had entered my IELTS and TCF-Canada results on the original Express Entry application. Today I received a request to upload my "TEF results"...

I'm not seeing transcripts on the checklist... It just says "Education (diplomas/degrees)" and clicking on the question mark I see "Examples of proof of education include a diploma and/or degree", but nothing about transcripts. Are transcripts needed? If so, same question -- just for the Ph.D...

I'm working on getting employment records from three workplaces (all universities, since I'm a lecturer). I've told my department chairs I'll be drafting the letters myself, to make sure all the necessary information is included. But this would mean all three letters would end up looking exactly...

I got an evaluation for the Ph.D. and for two M.A.s that I did en route to the Ph.D. at the same school. I'm not sure I ever even got diplomas for both the M.A.s since one of them was just a required part of the Ph.D. program.

I've been invited to apply under FSW and am working on submitting the required documents. I have several degrees of which the highest is a Ph.D. Do I need to upload the diplomas for all my degrees, or only the Ph.D.? I'm hoping it's only the Ph.D. because I'm not even sure I can find the older...

I'm applying under the "University professor or lecturer" category, have my invitation and am in the process of submitting supporting documentation. I'm wondering if anyone here has experiencing submitting letters of employment for an academic position. A couple of different questions: I've...

I entered the maximum amount for the funds...

I want to apply for Express Entry under the Federal Skilled Workers program. I went to the "Find out if you're eligible to apply" page and entered all my info, and it's telling me I'm not eligible. But as far as I can tell, my score should be 70 and the cutoff point is 67. My calculation is...
