Kooy,

That's an informative timeline especially for applicants who were asked to provide additional documents. I'm sure some followers and members on the forum will appreciate it. Feel free to reach out to those who may experience that same situation.

Cheers!

Yes No problem Jubear...for all those whose request are for additional review...this was my experience....I was asked for transcript on the 5th of November. I called CIC why they asking me for my transcript because I already submitted my transcript when I first submitted my application..They told me that they sent my application to the Etobicoke, Ontario office for additional review..so I guess they wanted me to show my transcript again. I requested the transcript from my school in which they did ..sent my transcript on November 13th and got the approval November 28th.

Hi All,
This question is as regards the TRV application. I have tried answering the questionnaire several time but i always end up getting the form for application made outside Canada. Please any idea what I am doing wrong?? I filled in my current location to Canada and Immigration status as worker . Has anyone gotten this same issue?? I have read don the forum that these form are the same but the requirements differ. In my requirements generated by the list i was asked to provide the work permit, passport and IMM form.

Any insights guys?

Hi everybody!
I'm filling the form for TRV and I have one question.
What are you all writing in the question 'Have you ever remained beyond the validity of your status....'
Yes or no? Do we have to write a comment that my docs expired while I was waiting for PGWP? I'm a bit confused by that question. All insights will be appreciated!
Thanks!

Fyi:
Applied on May 13th.
Approval on Nov 9th.
Mail delivery: Still waiting (starting 5th week of wait this coming Monday)
Location: Toronto

Called CIC and said no action can be taken unless it's been 6 weeks...

I am thinking that it most likely got lost in the mail...
I wished they would send important docs not through regular mail. At least registered mail!

Totally agree. They should sent all visa documents (which is critically important) through express mail or something which can be tracked, not through regular mail. I am sorry for you anyways. You will get it soon though.

Hi Alex Z,

I will write "No" for it because we got Implied status in that transition period. We also applied for the worker status before the expiry of student status.
