Guys, I know its too early to plan, pero do you have any idea on how many months do they give the PR card? I asked this since I plan to visit Manila on Christmas time.

Hi marky, have you scheduled for COA and CIIP? These two orientation/seminars are very informative and they discuss topics on settlement and timelines.

To answer your questions, the COA handbook states that PR card will be sent to your Canada address in 4-6weeks after arrival.

Hi,

Current processing times are listed here: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/times/perm-card.asp
Seems to have increased lately - the processing times for new PRs are up to 94 days now. Take this as a max - some new PRs get the cards in less time.

Thanks Cebugirl! :)

I have not scheduled my COA, CIIP and PDOS. I am scheduling them all by last week of July (after my last day in the company).
Anyway, I have checked the form from PDOS and not sure where the visa number is located in the stamp? Is it the document number?

thanks GKarl! btw, do you know what photograph size is required to submit in the clinic?

No specific instruction on the size of the photo, so recent passport size photo lang ang ibinigay namin, wala naman naging problema.

Hi paulene24,

You can call ahead to the clinic and make sure how many and what sizes are needed.

Note below: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/medical/medexams-perm.asp

You may have to bring:

Four recent photographs. You will need to bring these only if the doctor you select from the list of panel physicians does not work with CIC via the eMedical electronic system. Please check with the doctor’s office when you book your appointment.

Most often - with the use of pre-formatted messages sent on the correspondences to the applicants, the requirements may differ from what is listed in the letters to what the clinic needs, so better call ahead with the clinic and make sure you have enough photos.

Yes, ragluf is right, better call the clinic, that's what I did also. I inquire and at the same booked the appointment.
