I moved from Australia to Canada on PR | Permanent Residence in Canada
I had started my Canada permanent residence express entry application to move to Canada in 2019, yes that long time ago. That time Canada PR process was super quick and express entry draw was happening regularly. Even IRCC website used to mention that the maximum time for express entry process is 6 months from AOR to PPR.
So I went ahead and lodged my expression of interest for PNP program as well as Federal Skilled Worker program (express entry) in Canada and this was in December 2019, after appearing for IELTS and getting WES assessment. My CRS score was 443 at the time of application.
And surprisingly, in Sep 2020, I got invitation to apply for permanent residence in Canada and the whole journey started. I submitted all my PR documents according to the PR document checklist in Nov 2020 and the endless wait started because due the pandemic, Canada had stopped processing FSW outland applications and were only processing CEC express entry profiles.
PR processing time in Canada is normally 6 months and if any issues, can be 8 months but man I had to wait for 20 months to finally get my PR application after ITA approved and passport request for Canada PR. In July 2022 I got everything approved, counterfoil generated on GCKey, COPR in my hands and tickets to Canada booked.
I landed in Canada in August 2022 with the determination and mindset that this is going to be my new home. Moving from Australia to Canada and saying goodbye to Sydney was definitely hard and threw me right under the bus called "uncomfort zone" but this was a challenge I was ready to tackle head on.
I got my PR card in Canada in Oct 2022, making the PR Card processing time just over 60 days from my date of landing.
I am happy to say that I am finally a Permanent Resident of Canada!
