We just got our COPR email today, as others have mentioned nothing to follow-up with about an actual document or how to go about getting the PR Card. Hopefully that comes out not too long from now to provide us with details on getting that. Has anyone got the PR Card using this new system of...

Glad to hear about people getting COPR emails in lieu of the landing interviews. Hopefully ours isn't too far behind and will see one within the next few weeks. We got delayed a bit from our DM (DM Apr 17) because of a new police form needing to be submitted... Here in Vancouver so been seeing...

Just received an update on our PR application after about 4-6 weeks of nothing (Covid related probably). We got AIP / Decision Made which is great so we are just waiting on the interview office in Vancouver (which is again likely closed) unless they are going to do phone interviews which I heard...

I would presume that almost everything has come to a stand still. Have AIP/Sponsor Approved, waiting on DM / any future landing interview but I really don't expect anything to happen until either Covid is over, or individual provinces have recovered enough to start doing interviews again. Kind...

It seems like me and my partner will be waiting longer until this shit gets sorted. I believe that we were probably days away from getting AIP and DM and thus a landing interview of some sort within weeks but I guess this likely no longer will be the case and everyone else will be pushed back at...

Good to know thanks. What I am curious about is if my partner needs to get a NEW SIN number because they currently have one from being on a working holiday visa. Presumably you just took this to a Services Canada office or something like that?

We never did the OWP upon submission of the PR actually, because my partner was on a working holiday visa throughout, it just recently expired but wasn't working so now unable to work.

For other people who have done their landing interview, are the documents that you get from that enough to start working or do you need to wait for the PR card which presumably comes after? Just curious how much longer we might have to wait before my partner is able to start looking for work...

Hey there, you mentioned 4-6 weeks for PR Card... do you know if you can work after the interview? Or do you have to have wait for PR Card before you can even apply/work, or is PR card simply for traveling outside of Canada / coming back in. Or I guess the better question is do you need the card...

My partner has not had their landing interview for Vancouver Office yet we are still waiting. But, we are also still waiting for DM/AIP , but we have SA for myself... we had to get an a NEW police record check , which we have done and are waiting to hear back (uploaded the police record last...

Well it seems like we both got hit with the same situation just from different countries. I don't believe the UK requires any fingerprinting or biometrics so that might save some time. However, we are going to have to pay extra for the expedited fee to get it done in 4 business days, then they...

Apparently me and my partner received some emails today from CIC Mississauga. One to me as the sponsor where they approved me of 'met the requirements of eligibility as a sponsor' - I assume this is SA. A second email to my partner about needing to now get a NEW UK Police Record check despite...

Hi, thanks for the reply. I think I was confused because I heard that you needed to be CURRENTLY employed to transition from a previous visa in to implied status (and still continue to work). But, you're saying that legally they can still work while waiting (if an employer is willing to hire...

Yes, my partner was on an IEC visa when we applied for the OWP. Though the visa expired yesterday so just sitting about currently.

Hello everyone, Sorry if this is a stupid question, but does anyone know how to link an OWP application to the PR application online account? We applied for an OWP a bit late in early December instead of at the time of PR in August... also how long have some people waited to hear back regarding...

Hello everyone, I am trying to figure out whether or not my partner is able to work while our current Commonlaw PR Inland application is in progress. We applied for the PR back in August but we did not at the same time apply for the OWP for some stupid reason I don't remember. We have since...

Kinda ticked off now Apparently they added in biometrics as a requirement for applications WITHIN Canada, me and my partner were late to doing open work permit and now have to pay the $85 additional for this on top of the $100+155 for the OWP, serves me right I guess from delaying but also...

Can anyone tell me whether or not this is the case now. I am submitting an OPW for my partner who we are doing permanent residency common-law sponsorship with (we didn't submit the permit with our PR). I am reading online that now there is biometrics that is/did come in to effect for Dec 3 2019...

Just want to let people know that we got our medical request today and we are in BC. Going away for a few weeks on xmas holidays soon though so hope we can get it in by Wednesday lol.. In BC anyways it sounds like the cost is going to be anywhere from $300-350 depending on the physician. None...

Hi everyone, I have decided to do an OWP paper application for my partner a bit late after submitting our PR application already. But, the document checklist to me is pretty broad and not that specific to those who are doing it as part of PR. Can anyone help break down the actual necessary...
