hi - when you guys check your online status, do you see 'date modified' footer on the bottom right as "2015-10-02"?

just wondering if this is a date when the site page was last updated OR something to do with my application's last update?

Think that's the site as a whole - I see that date too ....

My LANDING Story
Completed Landing today at Carway (US Border near Alberta). It's fairly quick, went to US border and US Border officer issued a refusal note (which he clarified that this will never reflect in my US travel history), came back within 10 minutes towards Canada Side border. Officer at Canadian Border picked up my passport , existing work permit and US refusal letter, asked basic questions like are you arrested before, refused to land /give visa and asked to leave Canada , simply said No for all and he asked me to wait in room and called me after 10 minutes and gave me the stamped COPR and congratulated saying "Welcome to Canada and you are now PR" and explained about SIN and medicals how to apply. Staff were really courteous and polite at both borders. Entire process for me took less than 30 minutes after tedious wait of 16 months for entire PR process.

Wishing every applicant All the best and do keep your hopes alive and everyone will reach to this point definitely.

There are only two questions and they already mentioned on your COPR.
1. Are you arrested or charged for criminal offence or have you ever been refuse for entering in to any country?
2. Do you have any dependents other than listed?

Keep Calm and good luck
 
Hi all,

My open work permit is expiring in Jan 2016 and I applied on July 31st, 2014.
Medicals were done in April and RPRF (upfront) in July 2015.

Please advise when I should apply for the BOWP?
Should I do it close to the expiration so that I can hope to receive the PR before applying?

Please suggest.

Thank you.

Does anybody know if the passport has to be valid for a certain number of months to be eligible for the landingn visa or it doesnt matter. My passport has 5 months now but waiting for medical. By the time i get the passport request it will probably have 3 months or so on it. Is that on or do i need to renew?

Please get you Passport renewed now and send the new Passport photocopy to CIC., and avoid problems for future.
You could probably have a new passport by the time you receive your medicals.. Act fast.

Where should the photocopy be sent? Can it be an email? If yes, to which address? Thanks!
