How serious your criminal records ?
If you have COPR already did you try to land?

It's a DUI convection, I tried landing at cic office before the court date and when the officer asked if I was convicted I simply said NO, but I circled the section where it said have been charged... then he took my COPR and thanked me for my honesty then told to come back after court results. However, he return my spouse COPR and said cant land her coz I'm the main applicant.

Now that I know the results I really don't know what to think anymore. My record is clean til this mistake never even had traffic ticket .

How about travel?.do I have wait 30 months without travel. for example, I have not seen my parents from last year, and my passport is with IRB because I have applied for refugee in the border. I need to travel other countries rather my home country. Any details about that will help.

Hi Clenovia.
I dont understand why Immigration Quebec didnt contact with you yet, 10 months after First Stage Approval????? Very long.......
After letter from CIC in November I called to Immigration Quebec in february to ask about our file and they told me that tranfer take 2-4 months and I get letter from them in March. Try call them, they respond for call very fast and service is very helpful .
I understand feeling without medical care, we didnt have medical card for 2 years :(my kids too even they are citizen , when you change province you will skip Quebec etap, but try contact with Immigration Quebec or CIC to ask , moving with kids its not easy too.

Hello, I'm just wondering: my lawyer sent the H&C application in November2016, and now it's August 2017. The lawyer decided this would be the best option for me (though I've been in Canada for a long time but stuck in tragic family problems). I just asked him if there's a file number, as most other cases are, but he said there would not be a number given until the initial decision is made. Is it the case in H&C? Thanks

Hello Quovadis.
In our case it was exactly like your lawyer said, we got our UCI with approval letter . But if you have Receipt Number you can check your application status in CIC website , good luck with your application

Hello BeaC,

Thank you very much for your time and generosity of sharing.
May I ask: since my lawyer never mentions about UCI number or Receipt Number, at which stage shall I have that Receipt Number? I inquired him about the file number, the only thing he attached to me was a courier receipt. Nothing else.

Thanks again for your time.

Indeed that's a really long waiting. I empathize it. Hopefully it goes well with you.

Fees for H&C ground application is 550$ for person , if you have confirmation of pay its a number there , start for R and have 9 digits , if you give a money to lawyer and he paid ask him about Official Receipt . My experience with lawyer are horrible I never cant contact with her, hope you choice a good one
Wish you all the best

Hello mims2000
Every case is different, like you probably know , medium processing time from H & C ground is around 34 months , in my opinion if they started processing your app its good that is mean that your app is complete and you have chance. Stay strong , what is your status? Are you in Canada now?
