    Getting a head start on application

    Good questions! Yes, it will speed up processing to apply through London, as opposed to applying "inland" and having your application processed within Canada. "Outland" processing through London takes from 2-8 months total, with another month at the Case Processing Centre in Mississauga where...

    Sooo confused with process, can you guide me through?

    In order to be sponsored, one has to NOT be a citizen. Since your son is a citizen (even if you don't have the proof of it yet), he can't be sponsored. http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/pdf/kits/guides/3900E.pdf - page 19 Also: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/fc.asp I suggest...

    Sooo confused with process, can you guide me through?

    I can't say that I know, but my guess is that the CIC should be ok with birth certificates for you and your son to prove that he's eligible for citizenship and as such doesn't have to be included on his father's application. You can apply through Berlin if your husband has been residing there...

    plz help !! sponser and marry without paretns approval !

    Rorita, If the sponsor is outside of Canada you have to prove intent to relocate Canada, which can be in the form of a job, a house, admissions to a school or something along those lines. However, the job itself is not a requirement for sponsorship. If the sponsor is inside Canada there is no...

    A girls problem...

    Truth is your friend. Be honest!!! If your friend's mother has a family, other children, hopefully younger than your friend then the family maybe sufficient tie to make her want to go back to her country of origin. Otherwise, if your friend is an only child then her pull will be stronger than...

    getting married while visiting..

    Here's my take on this. The reason for visiting Canada, to be stated in the application for a visitor visa, could be (1) to visit, or (2) to visit AND get married. If the applicant uses (1), and subsequently gets married, Canada could feel that you misrepresented your case for a visitor's...

    after sponsor application has been approved, can one leave Canada?

    He can leave for as long as he wants, even before the sponsorship is approved. He could even move to Guatemala now and stay there until her PR is approved since he is a citizen. Only citizens are allowed to be outside of the country and sponsor their spouse. But if he does file from Guatemala...

    Questions for a real expert, ImmOfficer

    Hi, I can answer #3 & 4 only based on my experience dealing with the consulate in Tokyo. My background: I'm Mexican, married to a Canadian citizen and we both live in Japan. I've been to Canada quite a few times even before meeting my husband, as a student and a tourist. So CIC has my records...

    OK, is PMM there?

    Thanks so much for your insight, PMM. If we opt for a permanent residency application, I can show CIC a pre-signed apartment lease in Canada (July 2010-June 2011), and show them a three-year lease renting my place in Costa Rica (after trying in vain to sell it in a poor housing market). I hope...

    OK, is PMM there?

    Hi PMM. I originally addressed these questions to IMMOfficer, since he has actual hands-on experience. I might just as well have addressed them to you, but did not want to overburden you. However, IMMOfficer seems to "have left the building", and so I am hoping you will give me some guidance...

    Questions for a real expert, ImmOfficer

    These are questions for ImmOfficer. You’re right – this is the best Immigration forum. I am a Canadian citizen living with my Chinese wife in Zhuhai, China. Each year we’d like to spend about half our time in Canada (where my family lives), and half the time in Canada (where her family lives)...

    Any successful Common-law sponsorship stories here?

    In terms of your additional question about getting married in Canada, I can only recount my own experience. I am a UK Citizen and my wife Canadian. We met online via a music website a couple of years ago. My first visit to Canada was in June 2008 for 2 weeks. It was on this visit that I...

    outland application questions

    If you are a citizen, you can apply to sponsor while you are in England but you would have to provide proof that you are exclusively living in England and that you are planning on returning to Canada when the PR comes through. You would have to show proof of your intent to return to Canada...
