    how long takes to get a credential id of PR portal after you're approved for PR?

    That is nonsense. Nothing gets delayed. The things that require informing them after the 1st email are all listed in the attached PDF document. Travel is not one of that. But it does not hurt to inform them that the most recent re-entry into Canada has changed. It certainly won't delay the...

    how long takes to get a credential id of PR portal after you're approved for PR?

    I don't see why not. One can travel any time during the PR application process. We have done so just this past June and I received my 1st PR Portal email today and replied to them already stating that last date of re-entering Canada. Just take your work permit (or study permit if applicable)...

    Spousal Open Work Permit for Provincial Nominee refused

    Immigration is a huge money maker for the government. Let me enlighten you: Increased number of individuals willing to work at minimum wage at Walmart, gas stations, convenience stores. -> More tax payers, happy employers, cost kept relatively lower for goods and services -> happy citizenry ->...

    Spousal Open Work Permit for Provincial Nominee refused

    It's not about the money for me, nor should it be for anyone else. Migrating to a new country is a serious consideration for me and coming to a new place to me means that I show respect, follow the rule of law and abide by the law and play my part in making that location a better place. I...

    Spousal Open Work Permit for Provincial Nominee refused

    Don't get me started on any sort of appeals process, if you can even call it that. When it comes to pull the money out of immigrants' pockets everyone, the federal government, the provinces, the municipalities, the lawyers, and the consultants all open their hands and happily collect, but when...

    Talking to any future viewers of this thread. It is irrelevant how old this thread is.

    Spousal Open Work Permit for Provincial Nominee refused

    Well you do need to show that your spouse is willing to leave once her status expires, after all the provincial nomination was granted to you, only, and you have not yet both received PR status. Hence, you need to demonstrate to the officer that your spouse's intend (and yours in fact, too) is...

    Spousal Open Work Permit for Provincial Nominee refused

    Your statements are nonsense and not helpful at all. You are right about one single thing, which is that a visa or status is never guaranteed and that applicants MAY be granted xyz. However, having said that, there are strict guidelines by which immigration officers must abide and base their...

    PGWP - Spouse Open Work Permit - Job of Main Applicant

    I know that even if I applied under Post Graduate Work Permit and not as Provincial Nominee then I also do not need to be working full-time. But about the 3 pay stubs I never heard that they are not required if I apply as Provincial Nominee. My understanding is that I still need them. Do you...

    PGWP - Spouse Open Work Permit - Job of Main Applicant

    Thanks for sharing your experience. Very helpful! I am provincial nominee with a post graduate open work permit until 2025. My wife has an open work permit which expires this December 2022, hence our wanting to extend or OWP, though I think the correct term is to apply for a NEW open work...

    PGWP - Spouse Open Work Permit - Job of Main Applicant

    That was my take of reading the government C41 section. I have one follow-up question which may not be directly related to this topic: Given that I have applied for PR as provincial nominee and now apply for my spouse's OWP do we still need to show that we will be leaving Canada after the...

    PGWP - Spouse Open Work Permit - Job of Main Applicant

    Can you please provide a link where it is mentioned that the duration of the job should be for at least 6 month? I only read that my work permit should be valid for more than 6 months which it is (until 2025, PGWP).

    PGWP - Spouse Open Work Permit - Job of Main Applicant

    Thanks, I will probably take the risk as my wife got a full time offer and I am a provincial Nominee and both of us applied for PR.

    PGWP - Spouse Open Work Permit - Job of Main Applicant

    Thank you, so if I understand correctly it comes down to proving sufficient financial resources? What I wonder, and which is probably impossible to get reliable information on, is whether showing a bank account with more than 100,000 Canadian dollars and an investment account in cash with more...

    PGWP - Spouse Open Work Permit - Job of Main Applicant

    Hi, I wonder whether someone can share what type of job the principal applicant and Post Graduate Work Permit holder must hold in order to sponsor his wife for an extension of an Open Work Permit? I read that the job must be of NOC 0, A, or B. However, can it be part-time? I was offered a...

    BC PNP: International Post-Graduate category

    I do not recall, sorry. But you will need it at some point for sure so I would make sure to get it.

    BC PNP for International Post Graduate Stream.

    II think you might run into issues. I believe they look at our situations holistically. That means, they want to be convinced that you and obviously your spouse intend to live in BC. Having a spouse earn income and live in a different province would call this intent into question. That is only...
