Best source for the whole process to start with will be http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/provincial/index.asp
Processing times: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/times/perm/provincial.asp - this gives you a gauge how long to get your PPs stamped with a visa.

/hope this helps...

so that's 11months.hopefully it can get faster than that. i plan to quit my present job and find another one while waiting for my visa. do you think it will affect my application? do they really verify employment status? thank you ragluf

IMHO, do what you need to do. If it's meant to be, it's going to happen. goodluck!

Hello po!

The COPR is not a travel document; it is a status document (permanent resident status). You cannot use the COPR to travel into and enter Canada; you use the visa for this. At this point, you have been granted PR status, but you need to enter and complete 'landing' in Canada to activate your PR.

Congratulations vampy!

HELLO VAMPY!! CONGRATULATIONS!!! GRADUATE KA NA NYAN!
JUST WANT TO KNOW, DID CEM ASK YOU FOR ADDITIONAL DOCS, UPDATED POLICE/ NBI CLEARANCE?
THANKS!

@ Rak-Bumblebee

Thank you! Graduate na sa paghihintay at last!

In our case CEM did not ask for any additional documents...just instructed us to pay RPRF and had our medicals done....
