*** A MASTER THREAD OF SAKI'S POSTS ***

[shiva906]

My hearty congratulations! You got your visa, hurray!

1) At the PoE, you must have your passport, COPR, proof of funds and have all the other documents like birth certificate, educational documents etc,. Have all your documents in the cabin luggage. Carry photocopies of all important documents. Also, it is advisable to scan all the documents and keep it online so that you'll have access to them if you, god forbid, happen to lose them.

2) You normally do not need a transit visa if you are traveling via Heathrow, London while holding a PR visa/card to countries like Canada, US etc. Mostly, people suggest to go with British Airways. You can get an opinion on this from others too!

3) The CIC mandated minimum for a single person is around 11950 CAD. You can carry how much ever money you want provided it is equal to or greater than the minimum amount.You have to report any funds greater than 10,000CAD to the CBSA officer. You can carry some cash, traveler's cheques, bearer bonds, money in your savings acct etc., Many people in this forum have told mentioned that you might be asked to show POF at the immigration counter. If you have savings account balance, it's safe to carry a recent bank certificate/ bank statements. If you have FDs, carry the related documents.

4) Just basic questions from the details you provided in your PR application. People who have already landed can help you better.

5) I'm not sure about this. Your NOC and mine are similar . I see that there are quite a few job openings in Vancouver, Toronto for IT related jobs.

This is only my opinion. Senior members, please correct me if I'm wrong!

Hope this helped!

Thanks,
Raj

Hi, as far as I can see, this delay means some of your background checks are going on and until they are concluded, not much will happen. Nobody can say how long they will last as it varies from applicant to applicant.
Since the GCMS notes had positive info, all you can do is stay positive and patient, worrying will not change anything. Stay relaxed and ready, cheers.

Hi Applicants.
Below is the mail that i got from NDVO recently.Background verification and medical scrutiny must be done. These requirements must be satisfied before an applicant may be granted permanent resident status. In this context, certain background investigations are being conducted in connection with your application.

Fellow applicants is there any time frame that is followed or and average time needed to get these above said formalities complete

No, there is no time frame. Until all your checks are completed and the VO is satisfied, your application will not move forward. The time frame varies from applicant to applicant as we are not all the same.

I suggest patience, your application process is almost complete so GCMS is pointless and a waste of money at this stage. Cheers.

Good day everyone!!! I'm December 22, 2014 applicant under NOC 3233 FSW2014. I received PER on March 12, 2015 and haven't received any update after PER. Should i have MR by now? Will i receive it by snail mail or email? If email, from what particular email add? I also have a consultancy agency, will they receive the mail or will it be sent directly to me? Please help and enlighten me. I am worried that they might sent me the mail or email and i haven't seen it. Thank you.

Your MR will be sent to your consultancy by email. Your agent should know the address for your Visa Office and can give you this info, is that not why you engaged them? Keep checking with your agent to know if they have received your MR, cheers.

Yes, you're right. I should ask my consultancy agency. Maybe I'm just more satisfied with the info i get from this forum... Thank you Pipis Husband
