not paying permanent residence fee when you apply is waste of time... :-[
True. I knew that when I sent the application and paid only the processing fee but we're not in such a rush to get our papers since we're planning on landing in the summer so I figured I have better use for the money in the time being.

Someone tell me what this is about ??? ??? ???

I'm trying to log into ecas and I'm getting this error message even though I'm using the exact same info as I've done up until now:

This form is incomplete. Please provide the necessary information below, then send your request again.

Client ID Number/Unique Client Identifier has four (4) numbers, a hyphen (-), and four (4) more numbers. (Example: 0000-0000).


For you who are logging in with your UCI, is that what form your number is in??? Cuz mine has been just a bunch of numbers in this form: xxxxxxxx

You know your addiction to ECAS is bad when you check on Christmas morning but totally worth it when you see the words DECISION MADE :D

Merry Christmas!!

My husband and I have decided to make the move to Ontario without the COPR. He is a US citizen, we will be moving all our stuff with us through the buffalo boarder. Is there anything we will need to know. I have printed off the AOR and Sponsorship approval letters, to show. Anything else I will need to know?

Well, as if by some Christmas miracle, and one day before our wedding anniversary, we received PPR 28 minutes ago.

The conversation went like this...

I checked my email and screamed, "OH MY GOD!!!"

DH Screamed "WHAT?" Thinking my teenage daughter did bad again...

Then I laughed, then I cried and handed him my computer.

This is officially one of the best days ever!

Be careful, they can still technically deny him entry, even if you guys are in process. It'd be a dick move on their part, but you do get the odd border guy...
