I like how thoroughly you have thought through this case. Perhaps I could add one piece of opinion: Temporary workers pay taxes when they had a valid work permit, and continue to pay taxes when they are on implied status. The amount of tax that I pay is quite high in my opinion, and I seldom...

Thank you for writing such a thorough and clear experience sharing. I'm on a similar boat (implied status, PR approved but had not done landing, not giving birth to a baby, though - congratulations to you on having a new family member) and will go ahead to contact our provincial health care...

I actually did two things. I first submitted a webform, which eventually got replied in a week or so. After the webform, I tried to call IRCC 1-888-242-2100 as well. It went through - tip: call has to be made between 8am - 4 pm of your local time, otherwise the line will say it's busy and ask...

I sent my passport on Sep 20 and am still waiting. Wrote to check that they did receive my passport (I used regular mail...), and they said yes. The website updated and said the application has been approved. But tracker has not been activated and it probably will take a long while. I tried to...

Good luck!

I think so. But it has reached its maximum number of members. :)

An update: It passport actually took much longer to process. The parcel that arrived earlier was a Lancome cosmetics bag - Usually this type of products ship from Ontario or BC, but Lancome may have their warehouse in Ottawa. After a few weeks' wait, I finally saw my application status changed...

I think so. Several people updated to "PPR" in the tracker. https://myimmitracker.com/en/ca/trackers/cec-e-apr-tracker-express-entry-permanent-residency-application

Have you considered submitting a webform to explain your situation first?

Received PPR on Sep 19, regretfully chose regular mail service to send my passport, and received shipping notification from Ottawa on Oct 4. Did not receive a second PPR.

Hello everyone, I'm writing this post both to share some lessons in sending passport and to get some answers regarding my puzzles. I was very fortunate to receive a PPR on September 19. The email asked me to mail my passport to Ottawa and include a return envelope (see exact instructions...

Thank you Bs65. You're so helpful.

Thank you csadangi. I should have asked earlier. Was hoping that I got lucky and got away with one document that takes one month to obtain. Would you suggest that I submit a letter of explanation via webform now, or can I just wait? Is there any chance that they look at my file when I applied...

Hello all, I recently submitted my CEC (inland) application and was surprised that the checklist does not include a police certificate of Hong Kong, where I used to live for six years. I haven't stayed there for more than a week since I moved to Canada. The checklist does include a police...

Hello, I'm curious, how long does it take IRCC to process an applicant's status from ARO to MEP with results from an upfront medical exam? A different question: Does processing speed differ by month? Thanks

There are many posts regarding such a template in this forum. See for example https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/cec-proof-of-funds-explanation-document-format.610920/

Curious: AOR on Aug 21 and completed an upfront medical test. Have not seen any update in the system. What's happening?

I posted this response under a different thread but want to share my experience here again because more people should be aware of this: I was dissatisfied with WES because it had taken too long, they constantly missed documents (had to resend many times), and the agents are not responsible...

I saw comments here and chose WES for my evaluation. Regret it because it had taken too long, they constantly missed documents (had to resend many times), and the agents are not responsible. First, the official timeline to finish an evaluation is NOT 7 business days anymore, but 35 business...
