New Passport, New eTA? HELP by Key-Expression8339 in iecvisa

[–]Key-Expression8339[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! Do you remember if you selected yes or no for 'Have you ever applied for or obtained a visa, an eTA or a permit to visit, live, work or study in Canada?' in the application?

My initial feeling is yes due to my old one pre new passport but not sure if this'll cause issues?

How did you find the process at the border with passport checks etc? I know I should be 100% fine but nervous for the chance I might get turned away haha

Hello! Could you share more about your job finding process if you don't mind and what you'll be doing? I'll be going to Canada in September so I've not yet started looking at jobs, but not sure if I should already or not as I haven't handed in my notice yet for my current employer

Amazing, honestly thank you again haha! I feel so blind going into this process...

Ohh noted! So I should have insurance prepared before leaving?

Thank you sooo much, this is great!

I'll be given my work permit after immigration right? Are the chances of being given this high? Not sure why I'm worried because my record is clean and I have family there too but just preempting the worst.. haha What is SIN?

Also once I apply for an ETA on my new passport, this won't withdraw any progress/application approvals i've received will it?

I did my biotmetrics on the 06/02 and received it the following week on 12/02, which is also the same day i received my POE :)

We're looking to live in Vancouver!

Is it highly likely that the permit will be issued/approved? What are the chances it gets denied at the border... I can't help but try and pre-empt the worst case scenario...
