    address notification online issues for Permanent Residence Card

    Hi all, I hope someone can advise us. We recently landed but were unable to give an address when we went through immigration. We were told we would have to complete a form and it would take 4 - 6 months to receive the card. We were told to fax the form, but when we looked at the form, it...

    soft landing by air?

    Hi all, I was wondering if soft landing by air is not possible at the moment. Mr LL has CoPR, set to expire April 2022. We are in the middle of getting ready to sell our house and with the unpredictability of COVID and travel rules, we were thinking of landing (by air from the UK, obviously)...

    'Letter Accompanying the visa' question

    Hi all, In GC Key, we received a 'Letter Accompanying the visa' and Mr LL got an email today, saying CoPR is being issued. The weird thing is in the 'Letter Accompanying the visa', in the table he is listed twice: same name same validity date same UCI different type (IMM form numbers...

    Decision Made to Decision Letter and / or passport request how and timeline

    Hi there, Does anyone know how IRCC / CIC will communicate what the decision is regarding one’s application? This has seemed to be the most stressful part. Nothing in GC Key or Mr LL’s email or by post, as yet. Even checking junk mail! Of course, all ECAS says is decision made. Sigh. I am...

    Once you get CoPR - Find out if you can enter Canada

    Hi, there, Just checking I understand this right under 'Find out if you can enter Canada', it would seem the only way my UK Citizen spouse can enter Canada with CoPR, as it currently stands, is that he may be allowed entry if I enter first set our life up in Canada, maybe if I go with him to...

    extensions for biometrics and medical due to COVID

    Hi there, Mr LL can't submit biometrics and medical yet as we've been isolating due to surgery and London is a pain at the best of times to get to, never mind COVID. Hope we can look at booking in a couple of weeks - he has to mid May to submit. Anyone know what the COVID allowances are if...

    getting biometrics done

    A question for those of you that have recently had biometrics done: what was the actual process once you arrive at the appointment and after? For those that have done it in London (UK), is there anything specific you would have liked to have known before going to your appointment? Mr LL has...

    Temporary File Number

    I am just wondering what you can do with a temporary file number before AOR1? What function does it serve, other than to say it's awaiting allocation for a case processing agent to hopefully pass AOR1, so that you know your file will not be returned? Thanks in advance for any help, LL

    spreadsheet question: country sorting question

    When looking at the spreadsheet is there a function to sort by country and then set it back to its original format? I'm interested to see how different countries are comparing for processing times. Thanks in advance.

    Trying to do ECAS and GCKey - anyone else having issues?

    I have cleared my cache, but I can’t seem to login / use either ECAS or GCKey. Anyone else having a problem or found a solution? I fear we may not get AOR1 until the New Year who knows when and then we might have to consider can we continue to bear the wait. Seems some regions are processing...

    ALL FAMILY CLASS APPLICANTS SINCE 1st MARCH 2020 - Join here

    Hi, everyone, I thought that it might be an idea to have a thread for family sponsorship families who are applicants from 1st March in one place, as it isn't clear, as yet, how COVID might impact processing. This way it might be easier to see what's going on, when movement starts to happen, in...

    spreadsheet tracking by application type and processing times by country

    Hi, everyone, I know CIC says it cannot process applications according to their usual schedule. For tracking on this forum, I notice there are spreadsheets. I am wondering: a) what spreadsheet to add our information to (don't think there's a July 2020 tab anywhere yet, as far as I have found...

    creating an online account query

    Hi, all I am wondering if someone would be able to clarify how to create and link the online accounts of sponsor and principal applicant? It would seem we need to wait for the AOR1, as it is a paper application. We are assuming, based on the averages, that we won't get AOR1 until late August...
