How do you guys save "imm0130e" file after completing? It doesn't let me to save anything, so I guess I have to print it and scan it again.
New Policy for International Students - April 12th, 2021
- Thread starter Mari_Anne17

They were wrong about fees on twitter, so a safer option is printing and signing.
I think they just didn't want people to pay for the wrong amount. It's essentially the same amount though. The receipt doesn't mention the program, just the amount paid. I assume you can use any unused 1050 cad receipt for this pathway (but not sure why anyone who have one lying around)
But I do agree. It's safer to sign the forms that don't need validation. You probably can't have "Twitter said so" in your rejection dispute
Attention MAC-OS user who are either struggling with "PRINT and E-SIGN" with IRCC PDFs or need to append extra pages to those PDFs. Here is the solution. Open the IRCC PDFs in WINDOWS Acrobat Reader and then PRINT to save as PDF. Then bring those newly saved PDFs back to MAC-OS and use regular PREVIEW app to edit/annotate/e-sign/append etc.
Guys I think its important if you read about this too, immigrants are put under extreme pressure here in Canada to get PR. Here is the article:
https://www.ctvnews.ca/canada/thousands-left-out-of-plan-to-give-workers-permanent-residency-migrant-rights-network-1.5414144
In the article you can read that 6 international students committed suicide due to extreme stress of immigration, that really upsets me on a personal level. And for what? For a peace of paper! It just makes me upset, you come here, spend so much money for 2, 3 year of schooling and than you need to get out of the country, because obtaining PR is for a lot of people super hard. That just shows you how broken the system is and unfair to so many. And please dont tell me that Canada has a lot of immigration streams and its super easy, if it would be so super easy, we wouldnt have a mess that we have now. And we wouldnt have more than a million people right now in Canada who dont have any status at all. So something must be seriously wrong here. Nobody is coming to Canada in 2021 anyway, very small numbers, they should let everybody in and give people deserved PR, who is currently in Canada IS WORKING AND PAYING TAXES!

Take this with a grain of salt, what I know or read on this forum is that people were saying that IRCC wont give you an option for BOWP via this new stream and that the applications will get processed in year 2022, so its goin to be pretty slow in comparison to CEC stream that is linked with Express Entry where applications are being processed in a matter of 6 months. But again, I don't know if that is 100% true.
on twitter IRCC is responding that you need to give biometrics for PR application even if your previous biometrics are valid.
some people are confused.
following is the response on IRCC website.
