Rather, it\u2019s used as a means to clearly confirm your intentions of coming to Canada. <br> <br> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4>An overview of the landing interview process by our former client:<br> <br>  <br><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>My interview was scheduled to take place at 1 pm. I went to the office around 10 minutes earlier. I gave my appointment letter and passport and received my number at the reception. There were around eleven others waiting in line before me. While it was a bit unsettling to have many people in the waiting room with me, it came to be my turn after about a 45-minute wait. The interview took place through an over-counter-service similar to that at an airport counter. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some\nof the things asked included:<br>\n<br>\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Is it a valid address to send your PR card to?<br> <br> <\/strong><\/li><li><strong>under what status you first came to Canada under\uff08study or work or?\uff09<br> <br> <\/strong><\/li><li><strong>The airport you arrived at on your latest visit to Canada (Your passport was checked also at the time. No stamp was found for entering Canada, but a stamp from the departing country was found). <br>      <br>      <\/strong><\/li><li><strong>whether you have been previously denied entry to\/ or ordered to be deported.<br> <br> <\/strong><\/li><li><strong>Whether do you have any criminal background?<br> <\/strong><br> <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>You should expect to be asked similar questions.&nbsp;<br> <br> Signature to confirm your personal information written in the Confirmation of Permanent Residence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I\nwas passed over a copy of the form. They mentioned that I would need it again\nwhen applying for citizenship, and to take care not to lose it. <br>\n<br>\nIn regards to provincial medical insurance and the changing of Social Insurance\nNumber, I was told to expect about a 3-4 weeks wait to receive the SIN card. <br>\n<br>\nI was then told, \u201cCongratulations! You are a Permanent Resident from now!\u201d with\na smile. The interview was complete. I believe that I was short by ten minutes.\nI did not need to show the pre-paid Landing Fee receipt.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the same floor where the IRCC office was located, there was a Service Canada branch. There, I completed the procedures for the re-issuing of my Social Insurance Number. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To first read about the experiences of others that have gone through the landing interview process themselves has done a great deal in helping me feel more at ease. (confirming e.g. entry dates) Thank you! <br> <br> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Though\nI had many very specific questions pertaining to my case, I was able to\ncomplete my application with much ease as all of my questions were each very\nthoughtfully handled.<br>\n<br>\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I\nam very glad to have had my case handled by Ms. Ueda.&nbsp;<br>\n<br>\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Should\nI be in need of such services again in the future, I will surely have Ms. Ueda\ntake care of it!&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Once your PR application has been approved, your status will be finalized after you complete the Landing Interview at an In-Land Immigration office in Canada.
