Thanks. I paid $5 online but I am just not sure about how to fill the form IMM5563. Should I select 'Privacy Act' in addition to 'Access to Information Act' or only select 'Access to Information Act' is fine? I am worried about making mistakes...

Have you submitted the form?

1. Should I select 'Privacy Act' too? I only selected 'Access to Information Act' for now but not sure what 'Privacy Act' does.

2. Should I select 'Physical files'? I didn't select it but not sure.

3. For Electronic files, I selected 'Status of an application' and 'Permanent residence' and put in 'File number' twice. Not sure about this...

4. For the location, I put 'Buffalo, USA' but not sure about it...

Yes. I am wondering if I made a mistake for filling the form, could I correct them and resent them my files? Do you know?

1. Privacy act is free but Access to Information Act makes you pay $5, that is the only difference.

2. Unless you want copies of your original files, then select it. I wouldnt recommend it.

3. Electronic File - Permanent Residence.

4. For this you can put Buffalo, if you dont know the current location.

That is nice. I hope you can get your PPR soon. Even though it may take at least one more month to get any update. :-)

Its about time that happens. However, I dont expect anything before October. My file got transferred to Ottawa in July, so 3 months is a good timeframe to expect anything from them. I hope I get it within 2012...
 
Re: BUFFALO APPLICANTS - File transferred to other VO due to Buffalo closing dow

An October 2011 applicant just got PPR from Ottawa, so lets see when our turn comes :)

Bad luck with life. I broke up with bf this year and my company may be shut down soon. Even PR application was stuck there for more than one year. A really unlucky year.

I hope things work out for you this year and it ends well ...
