INLAND APPLICATIONS 2014

[Jamesdavid3]

You will most definitely need the PCC again...and quite possibly the medical too.

It's not CIC's fault that you waited 7 months to send your application.

That's a very confusing statement as Anyone right of now who sends there police check off with the application is going to fall into this category as the first stage before they even OPEN and look at your application in 10 months.. So it just seems pointless then to even bother sending it with your application until they request it. stupid process.

It's not confusing at all.

CIC must receive your PCC within 90 days. EVEN if it takes them 9 months to actually open your application, they RECEIVED it 9 months prior, right?

My permanent resident application was received in Mississauga today. how long after would I have to wait before I get an AOR?

Actually is rather a 100 days right now, if you receive it. Check out our timeline, I already added you, hope you don't mind:

thanks much ponga, was just wondering how long it will take to receive a letter of acknowledgement. so I guess its time to start the long process of waiting for permanent residence to be granted.

Anyone had experience having police fingerprint forms "notarized by Notary Public" and then "authenticated by DFAIT (Department of Foreign Affairs & International Trade)"? It would then be "legalized by embassy" before it can be sent to the police department of the country for PCC.

Thanks.

I might ,might not, forgotten to sign one of the forums. What are my options? Should I print and sign it and mail it ?

correct me if i am wrong (and i would love to be proved wrong ). CPC-M has only processed applications that were transferred from Vegreville. nothing that was originally sent to Mississauga yet?

That's correct...because until Jan 17, 2014 ALL Inland applications were sent to Vegreville. It's only fair that they work on all the applications that were sent to Vegreville first, right?!?!

I'm not sure if bradychen's application was sent originally to Mississauga or Vegreville.
But Ponga is right, they follow the timeline, that's it.

I think I remember him saying that it was Vegreville (December 2013), he was missing some docs and by the time he submitted them everything had been transferred to Mississauga.

Welcome on here! Good luck, and hopefully it all works smoothly. It's up to you whether you want to apply for it now or wait until you get AIP. You can always apply for it later into the process. Most people do include it with the initial application to give them a piece of mind and if you were to run out of status soon, and you included the OWP along with the pr app, that would give you implied status.

Hi all,

We are in the process of getting all documents together for the inland common-law partner application.
I arrived in Canada on June 15th 2013 with a visitor visa and after 6 months I applied for and received extended status until end of July 2014. We should be able to send in our common-law application by the end of June 2014.

My question is this: Do I need to apply for another extension of my visitor status once our common-law application has been sent? I've read contradicting info on this point. You mention above that if one applies for the OWP that you have implied status? But can I do that at the same time as filing my common-law visa application for phase 1 (sponsor approval)?
If I need to apply for an extension, that's fine. But if I can avoid the extra dmin and cost (of which there is plenty enough with the main common-law procedure) that would help a lot!

Thanks!
Anita

Hi Anita,

An Inland application alone does NOT extend your status. You must either apply to extend your visitor status, or submit an OWP application WITH your Inland application. This must be sent prior to your current status expiring.

If you send the OWP, be sure to write (in bold letters) something like: OWP SUBMITTED WITH IN-CANADA SPOUSAL SPONSORSHIP APPLICATION. PROCESS AFTER AIP

Good luck!

i believe applying with OWP still wont give her implied status as she doesn't have a current work permit. right?

I haven't heard that one. AFAIK, as long as an OWP is sent with the Inland application, this basically `extends' whatever their legal status was until AIP (worker, visitor, student, etc.).

But...I was wrong once before.

Ok...maybe twice before.
