Hi everyone, I am having trouble understanding how long it will take to receive my PR card. Normally I know they say you would receive it within 45 days of landing, but I also expect that the pandemic is slowing everything down. I landed in mid August and have applied for my driver license...

Is there a way his work will allow a leave of absence and write a letter indicating he’d have a position still waiting for him when he returns? That, plus the demonstration of funds to support himself and pay for any healthcare issues, plus a place he can clearly demonstrate is a place he has a...
