Applying for CEC and then leaving Canada

[hparacha]

Hi,

I applied for CEC in October 2012 and then left Canada (because I lost my job which was closed work permit) My WP expired Sept 2013
I am still in the process for CEC application.
I have appointed a representative to act on my behalf and still have an address in Canada
However, I am living in my home country now for almost a year.
Do I need to update CIC?

Thanks,

Yes, you do. See http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/change-address.asp on how to do this.

this only allows you to show/update a CDN address

Not sure we're looking at the same page. See the section "Outside Canada".

Hello all,

I am a January 2013 applicant, have recently received my medical examination request, and have completed the medicals on Dec 5th.
However I will leave Canada in January for one year (new job in Europe).

- Could you confirm that I should tell my representative that he has to update CIC about my new situation?
- Will that impact my application?

Thanks a lot for your input.

DId you get AOR ?
If yes, then your application is most likely in Ottawa
You can change your address online (while you are checking your status, there is such an option), or send email to OttPilot-Immigration @ cic.gc.ca
In your email, you should put your first name, last name, date of birth, UCI/ Client ID, Application Number, Type of Application (CEC)

It is better to inform CIC about changing your address, since they are asking to do this

As for second question (changing address after MR), I do not know... In this case security check is passed already... I really do not know

Yes, received AOR in March.
I guess I will wait a few weeks to update my status (I don't know yet my future address).
