If you use AVR to come back, it has to be within 30 days. It is very likely you cannot get your card in that period and you have to apply a new visa. I would say try to find a Alberta address for PR card delivery or go with option 2.

If you have a Alberta address, you can apply SIN, but to apply health card you need proof of residence. You have a maximum of 3 years staying outside of Canada for every 5 years period. No medical to do once you got your Canada immigration visa stamp.

Seniors, please correct if the information I provide here is wrong.

What do u mean by "it has to be within 30 days"???? In Alberta i guess they issue SIN immediately correct?? do they mail the card later?? What about Health Insurance?? I heard we have to be there 3months b4 we are eligible to apply is this true?

As per what i can remember : if you move from outside CANADA, you are eligible for Health Insurance Immediately, but if you move within Canada(from 1 province to Alberta) then you have to wait for 3 months. Please also cross check this.

I haven't heard anything. Looking at some of the other cases in Trackitt, does not give me too much hope.

First week of January. Got the same standard reply. I don't want to be sending too many enquires, but at the same time this is getting very frustrating.

I am a little conflicted about sending them repeat enquires, because mine is not an isolated case. All of us seem to be in the same boat.

I have ordered CAIPS notes, which I expect to receive in about 3-4 weeks time; maybe that will give us some indication.

I am just hoping that the lawyer would be directly in contact with the consular officer or ambassador or something regarding the delays.
