Let me know the date when your passport reaches CIC Office so that I can update the tracker. Thanks.

Want to share my experience of Landing at CIC office at etobicoke today .

Got an appointment at 8 am to 11 am .
Reached office at sharp 7:45 am , There were 6-7 people ahead of me to do landing in the queue . Within half an hour got a call from cic agent for interview. Interview is too big a word for the meeting whereas its moreover I feel a formality .

Handed over passports and COPR of both myself and my wife . I made them aware that original date of entry is wrong and they printed new set of documents (COPR) to rectify it which I believe is a + point of doing Landing at CIC office .

They asked set questions - Any dependents apart from wife , Any criminal offence - which both of us said "NO"

That's all , They took our photographs and pasted on respective COPR documents and asked both of us to sign , Once signed returned copy of it . They made us aware that COPR is an important document so keep it in a proper safe place without laminating it . Its useful also for Pension somewhere down the line in future.

Once signed , Agent congratulated and said the magic words " You are now Permanent resident of Canada" , Me and my wife just had a shine in our eyes and shared a smile watching each other .

Agent made us aware of SIN and OHIP update where SIN can be updated after a week as currently CIC system take time to be in sync with SIN system .

So the journey full of patience and perseverance is Over and I don't get happy easily but for sure this very day made me certainly happy .

I wish again everybody best of luck to people who are showing patience on their respective stages to be PR . Patience is the only key here that's all I interpreted with my journey .

Thank you all .
Congratulations for the job completed.
How much is the wait time between calling CIC and getting appointment for landing? Do you have to bring your temporary resident documents (work permit, temporary resident permit etc.) to the CIC office?

Hi all,

I received my passport and COPR, yay! My original entry date and last entry date on COPR are incorrect though. I have seen that this is the case for many people. Should I be do anything about it or should I just tell the officer when I land that the dates are wrong?

Thanks
