GCMS nots from December for last update saying that my file reviewed & outstanding for final decision and security in process for PA. And of Couse my Officer is in Winnipeg.
@Miss bee Hi dear, I have an urgent question. My application is still in processing. And in between that time, I changed my address two months ago. I got Portal 1 request last week and gave my new address there. I'm worried if I had to inform IRCC about the change if address right away or is it fine that I have entered my new address in Portal 1. Please help!!!
Hi Agg, I recently received the same note in my CBSA record. I wonder have you experienced security screening? what was the next step/update after you seen this note? thank you!
Well, I guess I applied it wrong then. it's been 6 weeks and still haven't received it.
Provincial Allocations – Who’s Negotiating & Receiving More?
- New Brunswick successfully negotiated an additional 1,500 nomination spots, bringing its 2025 PNP total to 4,250—even surpassing BC’s limit of 4,000 immigrationnewscanada.ca+15cicnews.com+15soscip.org+15. They agreed to welcome asylum claimants in exchange.
- Newfoundland & Labrador also regained spots earlier in 2025, raising their total to 2,525 aaracanada.com+7cicnews.com+7immicalculator.com+7.
- Other provinces, including Ontario and Saskatchewan, are also actively lobbying IRCC to restore or partially restore cuts to their PNP quotas .
What This Means for BC
- BC’s budget remains at 4,000 nominations in 2025, down from 8,000 cicnews.com+8welcomebc.ca+8cicnewsupdate.com+8.
- Unlike NB or Newfoundland, BC has not (yet) renegotiated to regain additional spots.
- BC has redirected its limited quota to backlogged applications, high‑economic‑impact roles, and essential sectors like healthcare and entrepreneurship cicnews.com+11welcomebc.ca+11immicalculator.com+11pacificimmigration.ca+11cicnewsupdate.com+11immigrationnewscanada.ca+11.
- Student and Tech streams are paused, with only narrow subsets being invited under select criteria welcomebc.ca.
Will BC PNP Array Return to “Normal”?
- The New Brunswick deal shows that provincial advocacy can succeed, especially by offering alternatives like asylum claimant intake.
- BC, facing similar labour shortages, is likely to push for more allocations, though we haven’t seen it report success yet.
- Ongoing developments in Atlantic provinces suggest a new precedent—if BC follows suit, it could gain momentum:
- Plan: BC could negotiate by offering settlement support or policy alignment to IRCC.
- Timing: Provincial-level advocacy may take effect mid-to-late 2025, with possible capacity boosts in 2026 aaracanada.com+3relydence.com+3irccalerts.ca+3cicnews.com+2immigrationnewscanada.ca+2immicalculator.com+2www2.gnb.ca+1visaverge.com+1.

Do you need to include your stay in Canada on IMM 5562 if you haven’t left since 2021
No, you do not need to list your time inside Canada on IMM 5562 if you haven’t traveled outside the country.
What does IMM 5562 ask for?
It specifically asks you to:
“List all the countries (including your country of citizenship) you have visited or lived in for more than 6 months, outside your country of citizenship or residence, in the past 10 years.”
So if you:
Came to Canada in 2021,
- Have not left Canada since,
- And Canada is now your current country of residence,
Hi, I have a question about police certificate @Miss bee . I have been asked to submit a police certificate from my country. I have one certificate but it is for 2018 when I was living there. After that, I have been in Canada and only visited my country for like one month or two (2022). It was also expired. In my ADR, it asks “Please provide an original and recent Police clearance Certificate from”, I was wondering if it is okay to submit what I have even it was expired? I cannot take right now as it takes at least 1.5 months. Thanks in advance.
