[@sabinkchettri8965]

I am planning for soft landing this March, my IM-1 visa expires in April. I am also planning to stay there for not more than 5 weeks. So in case I am unable to get my PR Card by that time, can it be handed over to my sister's place (same address I declare at IRCC for delivery)? And can this be later dispatched to me through DHL to my home country? Please reply.

Hi im planning for mysoft landing next month.im coming via spouse sponsorship can you help me with landing documents required for it or what questions generally do they ask?

[@j4junad]

wonderful . make a video on how you succesfully got the PR

[@TaleswithSunidhi]

Will do soon

[@amitthakker5332]

Hi, Thank you for the detailed video. Just wanted to confirm If soft landing allowed as in do the immigration officer ask you if you are here permanently or for a short period of time ? If he does what does one answer ? And which address should one give while soft landing as the PR card may arrive later once one is not in Canada? Thank you

[@TaleswithSunidhi]

I’m glad you found the video informative. During soft landing you are entering the Canadian border before the last date of entry given by IRCC. Our last date of entry was 6th May so we entered Canada on 28th April. The immigration officer didn’t ask us if we are here permanently or just for a short duration but if asked you can let them know that you are here for whatever duration you plan on to. It shouldn’t be a problem. They need a legitimate address from you for your PR card delivery. In our case, we gave a reliable friends’ address. I’d suggest land in a city where you have someone trusted and provide their address to the immigration officer.

[@gauravthakur7764]

How long did it take for your PR card to be delivered to your address? I have to travel soon and am on a time crunch, a bit of assistance on this end would be great!

[@TaleswithSunidhi]

It took a month for ours to get delivered.

[@Simarjeet_143]

Hey, could you pls let me know the mode of courier your friend/family used to courier you your PR cards? Fedex/UPS or any other? Thanks.

[@TaleswithSunidhi]

We didn’t use any courier service for PR cards as it’s too big of a risk to take. So I am not sure which service would be reliable for this.

[@Simarjeet_143]

@@TaleswithSunidhi so, how did you get them delivered to you?

[@ajantamitra5850]

Very informative and a detailed video. Looking forward to more of such videos

[@TaleswithSunidhi]

[@mohdrefath8253]

Did you collect your pr card before you returning back to india

[@TaleswithSunidhi]

Hi..no, we had it delivered to our close friend’s house and then during one of their travels, they got the cards with them to India. In our case we did have time in hand before we had to move.

[@joelvarghese47]

@@TaleswithSunidhiso did your friend hand deliver the pr card to you in India or u had these before exiting Canada post soft landing ?

[@Bazooka777-q5v]

Did u need visa when u were returning via boarding In the 2nd county before india

[@TaleswithSunidhi]

Hi, we didn’t have any layover while returning to India. It was a direct flight. But while going to Canada our layover was in Munich. With Canadian PR you can make a stop in Munich once.

[@Bazooka777-q5v]

@@TaleswithSunidhi thank you

[@lancejielmar1943]

Thank you for a very informative vlog. Hope to watch more of them. Just one question how long did the immigration process take as a landed PR in Vancouver?

[@TaleswithSunidhi]

It was not more than 20 minutes for us..

[@VK_Chowdary]

Just one note, even after receiving your card, you need to keep your CoPR safe for rest of lifetime. They'll for ask for everywhere. bank accounts, SIN no: etc etc Good luck

[@TaleswithSunidhi]

Certainly. 👍

[@leenapatle7523]

Very nice

[@msidhu8602]

What should be the proof of funds ? Bank statement or draft ?

[@TaleswithSunidhi]

Proof of funds can be anything from Bank Statement of last 6 months, Stocks or bonds holdings that can be liquidated or a combination of all or can make a gift deed if the above is not available. Gift deed should mention the mode of transfer of funds - cheque number or Transfer Receipt + The gift is not going to be returned and should ideally come from Parents or Siblings.

[@shampzie]

Did you guys have any issues with baggage at the Munich airport? There has been a lot of news lately about luggage being delayed or lost when travelling with Lufthansa, with layover in Munich. Did you had to check in the baggage in again at Munich?

[@TaleswithSunidhi]

No, we had absolutely no issues at the Munich airport with our luggage or otherwise and we had directly received our luggage at Vancouver. Everything was quite seamless.

[@shampzie]

@@TaleswithSunidhi Thanks for the reply. I have a round trip, Toronto-Munich-Del in October. I was worried about the luggage situation at Munich as I read a lot on reddit. I hope everything goes well.

[@TaleswithSunidhi]

I hope your trip went well. (If it has already happened) but luggage transfer is seamless. Good Luck..

[@prajapatiharsh3812]

Hello dear, I am coming to canada as a pr visa holder so I want to know what questions immigration officers asked you and how many time you took to complete immigration? Thank you 😊.

[@TaleswithSunidhi]

Hi, we were asked the address we will be staying at, they will ask to see your documents and that’s is it. That was our experience. Everyone’s experience is different and ours was pretty smooth and quick. Hope it helps!

[@amanchhabra3412]

Hi i am software engineer. Planning to apply for pr and do soft landing and then come back amd search job from india. Once i get job then I will immediately land in canada. Is it the right thing i am doing as i have a job in india also. Could you also please tell me for how much time we need to be in Canada after soft landing? And what are the formalities we need to complete before coming back to india?

[@TaleswithSunidhi]

The point of soft landing is to enter the Canadian border before the last date of entry. After that you can be in Canada for as long you want. Basically from the day of entry, your 5 years of PR card validity starts. I have made a shorts on the things you should do after soft landing in Canada. kzbin.info9PYAwkT1w4s?si=WMLwlff-2pk5MPwe Please take a look, that’ll clear your query.

[@amanchhabra3412]

Just one more query I checked my crs score online it is coming as 420. Is it less to apply for PR? Or I should apply for some pnp like Quebec which don't require job offer or should go ahead with express entry? My age is 31 having 8 years of software development experience and no job offer and no real siblings in canada

[@TaleswithSunidhi]

Given the current CRS draw that happens n it’s quite a stretch with 420 points. You can look at other avenues or maybe give a shot at learning French maybe. Good Luck..

[@saykay1]

Thanks. What questions did they ask on landing? I have heard cases that the officers refused to initiate PR card process if they find out you are here only for a short while, and they say we will start it once you come here permanently? Any update?

[@TaleswithSunidhi]

We didn’t experience anything like that and haven’t heard from any of our friends around these lines.

[@someshsharma1094]

Thanks for the video. Very informative 😊 I had a quick question. I am so travelling to Toronto from Delhi ; 10 hr layover in Munich. But I am reaching at Terminal 2 in munich, while lounges are at Terminal 1. Are we allowed to go from 2 to 1 since I dont have Schengen visa ? My munich to Toronto flight is from termjnal 2 itself.

[@TaleswithSunidhi]

There are buses that will easily take you to the other terminal. No visa required

[@someshsharma1094]

Thanks very much

[@joyanupam1983]

Did you get there with a job from India or you started searching job after reaching there ?

[@TaleswithSunidhi]

This was just a soft landing, we returned and now plan to go in early 2024

[@joyanupam1983]

@@TaleswithSunidhi what is meant by soft landing ,

[@TaleswithSunidhi]

Soft landing means. We didn’t move for good to the country. Upon receiving the COPR you get a date before which you have to enter the country once. That’s what we did, we visited the country. Got our PR cards and came back to India.

[@bookworm1995]

Hi. I am an Indian citizen planning a soft landing in July. I’d like to know if it requires a transit visa at Frankfurt or does the canadian single entry visa means I’m exempt?

[@TaleswithSunidhi]

Permanent residents of Canada won’t need transit visa for Frankfurt.

[@cnimbenirani]

Did you mention that you are doing soft landing??

[@TaleswithSunidhi]

Yes. Last year we visited to Canada :)

[@ss-uz6kg]

How many hours of layover is better??

[@TaleswithSunidhi]

Ours was a massive 10 hour but it was super comfortable at Munich. I’d suggest layover should be of enough hours which gives you a buffer window for any unaccounted situation like flight delay etc.

[@anicetobrazaiii3677]

What were the questions about settlement funds for soft landers?

[@TaleswithSunidhi]

We weren’t asked any questions about the funds. But advice you to keep the proof of funds doc handy if asked.

[@anicetobrazaiii3677]

@Tales_Beyond Thank you, I will keep that in mind. Got our application approved the other day. Will now send our passport for the visa and copr paper :-)
