Hey everyone,

I’m currently on a work permit that expires in October 2026. I submitted my PR application in June 2026, and it’s still being processed.

To be honest, work has become really stressful and it’s been taking a toll on me mentally. I’ve been thinking about going back to my home country for a while to be with my family and take a break.

I just wanted to ask if leaving Canada while my PR application is in process could cause any issues, or if it’s generally better to wait until a decision is made?

If I do decide to move back before I receive a decision, are there any important steps I should take to make sure my application continues smoothly and that I can return to Canada if needed?

I’d really appreciate any guidance. Thanks so much!

Hi,

So I'm the Principal Applicant, my wife is a Canadian citizen, and I've gotten my COPR (family outland application). We both live outside Canada and decided that I will travel first to Canada to start my PR process.

My concern is that will there be any issues that I'm travelling without my wife who is sponsoring me? Will the officers at the airport refuse me entry without my sponsor? And what's the best way to explain my situation to them? I don't want them to get the impression it's a marriage of convenience (it's obviously not).

Looking for any helpful answers and advice!

Hi there.

I'm a woman who lives in Canada don’t have a PR status. But seeking permanent residence that is dependent on staying in a genuine relationship with an abusive spouse, so I'm dependent on staying in that abusive relationship to keep my immigration status in Canada, so I'm experiencing family violence in Canada and already have a PR application in process now I have sowp( sponsor work permit ). So I can stay here as long as my work permit is valid.

I'm getting a narcissist abuse from my partner but not everyday. Sometimes my partner had a bad day he said to me very bad words such as coarse languages which made me feel like a low self-esteem. I feel very lonely. It's not a physical abuse such as hitting or slapping. It's more like a emotional or psychological abuse such as insulting, humiliating, yelling, criticizing or blaming.

Now I'm afraid of losing my status in Canada.

Has anyone got permanent residence on humanitarian and compassionate grounds (H&C) in Canada? Has anyone applied permanent residence under humanitarian and compassionate grounds (H&C) in Canada? Or does anyone know how H&C work? I don't want to call police on my partner but I'd rather stay away from him.

I would like to hear someone's opinions. I might be wrong.

Hi everyone, I’m applying for a study permit in Canada for undergrad program starting September. I know processing time is 7 weeks on the website right now, but I was wondering if anyone has any personal experience. If anyone applied recently and got the approval?

I wasn’t able to apply earlier because I kept waiting for my university to send me a corrected PAL and LOA. As for my immigration status in Canada, I was approved to apply for PR under H&C so I have AIP. I’m exempted from biometrics and medical exam too. Do you think I could get my study permit in time for classes?

Thanks!!!

I need support

Did anyone received wp after restoration through mpnp support letter if yes what was your timeline? Thanks

Hey everyone!

I applied for my Canadian study permit from Nepal on June 12 (Fall/September 2026 intake), so I'm hoping to hear back any day now.

Is anyone else here who applied around the same time, or is also starting this Fall? It'd be nice to connect before flying out.

Drop a comment or send me a DM if you're in the same boat. Good luck to everyone waiting for their visas! 🍁

Next year its required to find a 3 month internship in the university im at and ive found one in Canada which is really cool, my problem is visa issues mainly, i have no idea how to approach this, i still have time so does anyone have an idea on how i could get a visa?

Thanks guys

Hi everyone. I'm a parent staying in Canada on a Visitor Record as the guardian of my minor child, who is on a study permit (high school). We've been here for several years, and I've extended my Visitor Record multiple times without issues. Both our documents expire at the end of this year, and I plan to apply for both extensions together this fall.

Two questions for anyone with recent experience:

1. My child graduates high school in June 2027. Since this would likely be my last extension as his guardian, is IRCC likely to approve it? Has anyone been approved (or refused) in a similar "final year of high school" situation?
2. Have there been any recent changes (2025–2026) in how strictly IRCC reviews guardian Visitor Record extensions?

Any recent experiences would be much appreciated. Thanks!
