Quebec Skilled Worker Federal Stage (After CSQ)

[poisonapple]

I completed the landing yesterday. Nothing special in my case, everything went as usual like others. There is no queue in the US gate or in the Canada office, it was empty, totally it took me only 30 minutes.

I thought of cancelling my work permit application with new employer after PR landing, but CIC just approved my WP application within couple of days after approving my PR application.

Few days before i called IRCC to book an appointment in CIC Montreal office for PR landing, officer told me it will take approx. 3 weeks for CIC montreal office to get back to me on the appointment date. So, i thought this is not a good option for me, because i don't like to wait for another 1+ month to become PR.

Went to lacolle border around 8 AM in car, Went towards US gate, mentioned that we came for PR landing, officer provided us the refusal letter by mentioning our names as mentioned in passport, anyway i dont have any US visa. US Officer asked us to make U turn to return back to Canada gate.

In Canada Gate, they had a look at our passport, after that officer gave us a yellow paper with parking gate number, we parked vehicle there, and went to Lacole border inspection building which is just few feet away. As soon as we enter the building, went to the right side counter and saw the Canadian officer. He requested the following details.

CoPR both copies
Passport
Return envelop of CoPR letter mail or any other address proof in Canada( I provided my Hydro Quebec bill)
Bank statement
CSQ
Any goods importing to Canada? We said no
Officer didnt ask me anything about my current work status, old WP's etc.

​

He asked us to wait, after 10 minutes, Officer called us back and Congratulated for PR & asked us to answer the below question in CoPR
1. Refused admission or required to leave Canada ? No
2. Have you any other dependents other than those listed below? No

Finally we signed the CoPR both copies & Goods import Declaration form provided by Officer & received the client copy of each.

He told us we will get the PR card in 90 days, and asked us to apply for SIN & RAMQ medical card.

Officer told, by land i can visit US with the CoPR client copy, no need to wait till PR card, but if i use flight i need the PR card. In case if i visit some other country before i get PR card, then he told that i should apply for PR visa before travel.

Congrats on your landing ... PR card taking 90 days .. CIC site is saying 61 days...

Hi all,

I have a quick question I am an inland applicant (Sydney Nova Scotia)

I sent my documents last year 5th May 2017

AOR 27th July 2017

No MR yet

They sent a document asking for the payment on 4th of August 2017 and I did the payment online and uploaded the receipt on the same day (They give only 7 days to do it otherwise they send your application back)

Since August I didn’t hear anything back from them and it says my application is in progress and they are doing security check.

Yesterday this message showed up in ECAS:

3. We sent you correspondence on August 3, 2017. If you have not yet provided the information or the requested documents, please do so as soon as possible. Please wait until you receive the correspondence before sending us additional information, as the correspondence will outline all information that is required.

Do I need to send email or call them to check if they received my payment receipt or not? Or shall I just wait? I am a bit confused
On my online application i can see my uploaded document (receipt) as supporting document

I didn’t find an email where I can ask and it is not a technical issue so I cannot report it via e-forms as well

Thanks in advance

I don't think that it is related to the payment . I think that , the documents could be a request to submit further documents . As it happened to me .
Yes I think you should call them and told them that you didn't receive. Then you will check the date it was sent , that they have your correct adresse . If they have it, ask them why you didn't receive it .
It is realluy really important to check that they are sending things to the right address mail .Because one of my knowledge lost more than 6 months because of that . After 13 months without MR , she called and start asking question , and then they told her that they were using the wrong addres , even if she gave the right one and she receive her AOR on the right one. Thgey apologized , but it is late ... She has to wait to go throught the rest of the process .

This is not correct. I requested GCMS notes twice and it did not impact my timelines.

Did you request the comple file physical file or just electronic notes?

 

[APPNOV2014NY]

Did you request the comple file physical file or just electronic notes?

I do not know the distinction between the two. Both times I received pdf files with 40-50 pages.

 

[tatiana1994]

Please did you choose " the application, supporting documents and correspondences sent to and/or from IRCC for the permanent residence file concerning ........ or did you choose " Electronic notes " . The first one is the phisical files by pdf , the second one , you will just find the notes of the agent nothing about your own information
