Hi everyone,

I'm trying to get a better idea of the current processing times for the Francophone Mobility Work Permit (C16 / LMIA-exempt) and would really appreciate if people who have already been approved could share their timelines.

If you've received your approval, could you please include:

I'm especially interested in 2026 applications.

Can I work on the expiry date of my work permit?

My current PGWP has an expiry date of October 16, 2026.

I'm a bit confused by IRCC's wording that says: “The expiry date on your work permit is the date you must stop working in Canada.”

Does this mean I am still authorized to work on October 16, 2026, and must stop working starting October 17? Or is October 15 my last authorized working day?

Has anyone received clarification on this from IRCC or an RCIC/lawyer?

Thanks!

Is anyone still buying the M5 Pro MacBook Pro after the price hike, or are you waiting for the MacBook Ultra?

Was planning to get the M5 Pro, but the recent price increase has me reconsidering.
Are you still buying it, or are you waiting to see if Apple releases a MacBook Ultra (or just waiting for the next generation)? What’s your plan and why?

MacBook Pro M5: Do you recommend a hard shell case and AppleCare+?

I’m about to buy a MacBook Pro M5, and since it’s a significant investment, I want to protect it as much as possible.
I’m looking for advice on two things:
Do you recommend using a hard shell/protective body case? I’ve seen mixed opinions—some people say it protects against scratches and dents, while others say it can trap dust, affect cooling, or even put stress on the hinges.
Is AppleCare+ worth buying? For those who have purchased it, did it end up being worthwhile, or do you wish you had skipped it?
I’d also appreciate any recommendations for good-quality protective cases or other accessories you think are worth getting.
Thanks in advance for your advice!

Wait for the rumored MacBook Ultra this fall or buy the M5 Pro now?

I’m looking to buy a new MacBook, but I’m having a hard time deciding whether to buy the M5 Pro now or wait.
I’ve been hearing rumors that Apple could introduce a MacBook Ultra sometime this fall. If that’s true:
Do you think it’s worth waiting for?
Will it likely be significantly more expensive than the current M5 Pro?
Do you think it will replace the MacBook Pro lineup, or will it be a separate, ultra-premium model?
I’d love to hear what others think, especially if you’ve been following the recent rumors and Apple’s release patterns. Thanks!

Is it normal for the “Signature du candidat” field to be blank on a TCF Canada Result?

Hi everyone,

I recently received my TCF result certificate and noticed that the “Signature du candidat” section is completely blank.

When I went to write my exam I already signed for the registration purpose.

Has anyone else received their certificate like this? Did it cause any issue for immigration, IRCC, or verification purposes?

Did you guys manually sign the document after printing out the document and then uploading it to IRCC?
