Hello Everyone!
I've sent the sponsorship application package to CPC-Mississauga yesterday for my wife residing in Pakistan. Is this the right forum to discuss the further updates regarding the November 2016 applicants?
Moreover, the package has been received and signed by CPC-Mississauga.

Your replies would he appreciated.

About to courier my app to Mississauga at lunch today!

I've spent the last 3 months getting clearance and medical done ahead of time. We paid all of the fees, including the Right to Land fee, upfront. I've spent the last 7 days gathering and creating various forms of timelines with proof and then creating a master timeline with reference points where the officer can find the proof. My sponsee packet is 407 pages in total. My sponsors packet is 257 pages in total. Each form and section of "proof of relationship" is nearly marked with a tab. We created tables of contents for even easier reference . We have been together a little over two years and I've been in Canada full time on a visitor visa over the last year.

I am still worried. I just want to live with my spouse and step son.
This whole entire process is beyond anxiety-inducing and stressful. :/

(I was going to post photos of the packets, but I can't figure out how to add photos...)

Hi everyone! I will be sending my packet out next weekend, and can't be more excited! (Just waiting to go to my medical exam). I just went through the visa process to bring my (Canadian) husband here, and now we've decided to settle down in Canada, so we have to go through another long, gut-wrenching process. I have so many questions about the process, most of which I've found in other forums, but one that's been on my mind lately. I am a US citizen, so I can go to Canada as a visitor for 6 months. I'm wondering if I could move to Canada prior to receiving Permanent Residency. I learned through my husband's USA PR process that it is illegal for someone to enter the US with the intention of moving there, if you haven't notified Customs and Border Patrol. Is the same true in Canada? Last I checked, the process takes 14 months for a US citizen outland spousal applicant to gain Permanent Residency. So what I'm asking is, could I move to Canada in 8 months (or earlier, perhaps)?

First of all, I love your username, U.S.Eh? 8)
Secondly, you were talking about your sponsee/sponsor packets and I was wondering if you sent them separately? Also, do you know if the two applications get separated? I included one "Appendix" of relationship evidence (including plane tickets, skype chats, phone logs, pictures, etc.), and now I'm thinking I should make two copies of our relationship evidence for each packet, sponsored and sponsor. Thoughts?
