Hi @Miss bee and others,

I need some clarification please. Today, I received the Portal 1 email and can see my COPR details on the IRCC tracker (with the background status is marked as completed, and eligibility is not started.). The Portal 1 email asks for our current presence, but I am currently outside Canada and plan to return during the first week of August. So, when I reply to the Portal 1 email (within 7 days of its receipt), I will mention these same facts (in the required template).

My question is: Could this extended stay outside Canada negatively impact my further PR process or cause further delays in Portal 2? I understand that once I return to Canada in the first week of August, I will again need to reply to the Portal 1 email to confirm my presence in Canada.

Thank you in advance.

You can’t extend this portal request. August is too far . You should provide them requested information and let them know that you are outside Canada and won’t be returning soon . Delaying them information can result in refusal of application or abandoned. If impossible to return reply to that email and tell them you want to proceed outside of Canada and will send passport to local visa office for stamping. For now just tell them that you are outside.
 
Hi everyone,

My PGWP expires in December 2024 and I applied for PR in March. Restricted employment.

Does anyone know if I can stay in the country and stop working if employer refuse to apply LMIA when my PGWP expires? Is there any legal way to stay?

Would it be possible to apply for visitor status to stay until PR get approved?

Thanks, @Miss bee. What I meant is that I will respond twice: once now (within 7 days) stating I am outside Canada amongst other information points, and again during the first week of August 2024 after I return to Canada. Do you still foresee any risks or negative impacts on further process due to my prolonged stay outside Canada?

Usually they don’t hold your application that long. Just reply to email and ask them to change your application to outside Canada.
 
Hello, I applied for BCpnp under non EE IPG stream on 29th March. I don’t have a job offer as it’s not a requirement for the stream I applied. I haven’t received any response yet. Neither has the status changed. It still says ‘Applied’.

It’s been exactly 2 months now. Should I email the bcpnp or wait for another month? Also, I’ll be going to Ontario for around 20 days and will be back to BC but still will be a tenant in BC and will keep paying the rent. Should I inform bcpnp about me going out of BC?

Thanks
 
Hello,

What are your thoughts on getting the medical exam done and submitted prior AOR. I got my Temporary File Number (TFN) from IRCC and was thinking to do medical upfront and submit it through webform using TFN. I have seen people saying it is better to submit medical upfront so that it saves time in processing. However, I have also read it is not recommended to do medical examination without IRCC requesting. I'm not sure what is the best way.

I haven't done any medical exams in past for IRCC.
Please provide your experience and expertise.

Thank you.
 
Hi,

I have submitted my Non express entry PR application and I am waiting for my AOR. Just wondering if myself and dependents have to do our Biometrics? We did our biometrics before entering Canada in 2019 for our TRV, do we have to do it again? I have the same question with the Medicals, do we have to do it again, even though we did it for the TRV. Please advise.

Yes, you will receive BIL for PR even you have a valid biometric for a temporary visa.
 
Hi, I’m new in this group. I’m a closed work permit holder and currently is working for my employer in BC. I, via a representative, submitted bc PNP non-express PR application in early March 2023. Received police certificate request in early April 2023, and then received updated resumes ( I and my wife) in mid October 2023. After that, I do not hear a word about the application. The processing time is keeping shorter and shorter after submitting the application. Any advice? What should/can I do? Thanks.
 
How do you get a Temporary File Number (TFN)?
