Amazing guide. Thank you!

Hey all. So I've been here since 2016 june so i am technically common law already but didn't start official documents (bank etc til 2017 may...) now we are working on doing official stuff to help my chances. I am nz citizen. What should I be doing? We are leasing soon under both our names. Have...

We want to be 100% sure that we have sufficient proof. The problem is living with parents means no official lease proof. We have joint bank account, bills that go to the bank account and my insurance has him as my beneficiary. I feel as if that is not yet enough and maybe we should rent a new...

Hi. I'm on a valid IEC activated in September and expires September 2019. I want to take a vacation trip to California with my fiance next year in June. I was wondering... Am I able to reenter Canada without problem? This is because I NEED to be assured that, as I am common law and I'm planning...

Hi all! So I'm getting ready to flagpole for my nz IEC. Some last questions left.. Should I bring all documents with me? (what I submitted on IEC, eg criminal records paper) What is a good amount of money to have is 5 grand good? Is 10 grand too much? Should I just show bank statement showing...

Hi all. So I know I have to show cbsa my bank statement and it must have more than 2500 for just the ticket I believe. How much is the most ideal amount of money? The problem is, my BMO account is conjoint with my partners. And since the TFSA account is under his name and only me as a...

Awesome. Thank you for your in depth explanation!

Okay, so it seems that I will be ok as long as I bring the old passport and also new and state that to the officer. Will the officer ask my intentions or interrogate me, by any chance? Thank you.

Thank you guys! I was only worried new passports voiding my application as it wasn't the one I would have applied IEC with and got approved. So it would definitely be ok to use a fresh passport from nz? I don't need to bring my old passport right? All I have to do is reapply for eta on new...

Hi all. I got approved in a matter of 2 weeks which was shocking..! Now my question is... Should I apply for a new NZ PASSPORT before I re enter Canada? (currently visitor, must reenter to obtain work permit). My passport expires next year November, so I wouldn't be getting the most time I can...

My application is due in two days and I can't for the life of me figure out how to do the digital print part!! One of the requirements is to have the head, from chin to crown between 31 to 37mm... But the better quality the scan of the picture is, the bigger it is on the computer screen... How...

Nobody has any idea? :(

Hi all, I want to ask some questions regarding sponsorship and IEC. From my previous posts I was told it's okay to apply for IEC until me and my partner can fully prove we have lived together for 12 months (bank account creation date with same address). As we didn't want our case to be...

Anyone have any idea? I'd be less tense and anxious but I have 20 days to submit..

Hi bs65. I will be honest and say I just want IEC as a temporary bridge as we are supposed to apply for common law but screwed up and only have official proof since April this year. IEC gives me opportunity to not only work but stay for longer without a need of an extension. I'm currently on a...

Thank you. Any tips or advice on this application, or is it not that complicated? As I'm afraid of getting rejected. I currently reside in Canada already, have a solid insurance plan until 2018, and have 9 grand in savings. Does that help?

I certainly did not expect to get an invitation to apply for IEC after only one week... Please help me with this; Do you want to work in one of the following jobs? health sciences worker clinical laboratory worker patient attendant in nursing or geriatric homes medical student admitted to...

Thank you all for the help. I have submitted a request to enter the IEC pool and listed myself as common law. Let's hope everything works out.

Thank you canuck. I do understand that cases depends on which officer I get reviewing my case. Should I just apply for an extension in December and state reason as wanting to become common law? I don't need to mention the status of CRA, do I? Or should I mention I'd like an extension for a...

Hey all. I posted on another thread but this is another question so I didn't want to bump that post up for no reason. Basically, we declared common law to CRA as dated June 2017 because in June 2016, I arrived and lived with my boyfriend. Now, we had wanted to apply for common law soon but...
