Did you check with RCMP about status of PCC? Its taking more time than usual these days.
I have just applied in Jan. So fingers crossed. I was able to obtain a PCC from a private firm like commissionaires
Thanks for your response.
You can legally sponsor a spouse in-land when they are out of status. Depending on when they lost the status, you may be able to file a demand for restoration of visitor status. They've been a bit laxer than normal due to COVID-19 border restrictions: https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/corporate/publications-manuals/operational-bulletins-manuals/temporary-residents/visitors/restoration-status.html
I was out of status for 8 month last year when my spouse was doing sponsorship for my PR and I just got copr today. You just need to write a explanation why you are out of status.
It makes a difference what country you are from. Some countries allow you to renew your passport without having valid status and some do not. What passport do you hold?
Philippines. It says on the Embassy website that you need valid permits.. Which is counterproductive lol. My partner is Canadian and we have been living together for more than 2 years, my visa expired last year, passport expired 4 months ago. No appointment schedule available online.. even lawyers says they can't do anything on their end to renew my passport. This is why I have been reading this forum for 2 days haha
Hi @Lim2010,
I think it depends on the question why he hasn’t go to college or is he going to. If he had an offer but dropped off then I don’t think he is a student at this moment. However, it always good to attach a letter to explain the situation, like why he is not in the college. My case is a bit different than yours, my work permit was expired so I was out of status. I also attached an explanation saying why it happened.
