Search results for query: "intent to return"

We were on the US when my husband sponsored me. We did shoe our savings in the US and his bank account in Canada though that letter one was more as a proof of his intent to return to Canada. (He's a citizen so it was fine to submit the application from outside Canada)

Short form: PR-sponsors must be resident throughout the process, citizens do not need to be resident (but may need to show intent to return). Short trips are specifically okay. There's no definition of 'short' - so stays outside Canada are at your own risk. It's unclear how strictly IRCC...

1. Sure, not complicated. 2. Again, not complicated. Whatever shows you're paying taxes on your income in Canada. 3. Pretty obvious. 4. It's really up to you to decide how to show. The major points of life in this regard are work, a place to live, and concrete plans like moving arrangements...

Thanks @armoured, that was helpful. Summary and few more questions: Are you a Canadian citizen living exclusively outside Canada ? Yes Do you reside in Canada and in no other country? NO Provide a letter of explanation: Work arrangements: A letter from my employer(my manager) stating that I...

I would say for the purposes of this form, you are living exclusively outside of Canada, and then provide a letter of explanation regarding your work arrangements (and esp eg taxes if you continue to pay in Canada) and the delays etc that occurred because of covid. As a citizen you can sponsor...

No, this is normal - for citizens sponsoring from abroad, the sponsor approval does not mean IRCC has 'accepted' the intent-to-return (plans etc). And the gcms notes in initial review (at AOR1/SA stage) will have language like 'sponsor is Canadian citizen residing abroad - intent to return to...

There seems to have been a trend - or a burst perhaps - of visa offices asking for more evidence of intent to return, and this roughly coincided with the start of more normal business last fall/first few months of this year. That could be a new policy, or something they decided to do for all...

You just got lucky with CBSA now that they have reached an agreement with the federal government. We have had good and bad experiences with them and you never really know what to expect with these " cowboys. " They don't have a good track record through YVR!

I should add that my wife had a Study Permit approval in hand when we crossed US to Canada, which certainly made things easier. We applied for that in parallel when she was accepted at Capilano University, shortly after applying for PR. Just in case PR doesn't come through in time. It was an...

Yes to all of the above - including an estimate for the move, a signed lease, the receipt for the rental deposit, a letter of intent from my employer, etc. All IRCC cares about is whether you can legitimately sponsor (Canadian citizen: check!), and that you are planning to return if you're...

Did you sponsor your spose after 30 years from outland and had no problem? Did you have solid proof of intent to return? This worries me.

^^^^^Paranoia. Strongly doubt IRCC cares about any file enough to carry out a bizarre scheme like this, that could easily be appealed.

They are LIVING together OUTLAND. In such cases ircc is trying to severe our ties with Canada and refuse based on non intent to return. They know they cannot get her on non genuine clause, so they are adjusting their game plan accordingly. Withdrawing and reapplying is a really bad move in...

Unless there is something odd about your case, I would not plan on the likelihood of it being denied. And while travel's harder right now, getting to Canada for a trip to verify the identity shouldn't be that hard. (May be other useful things you can do to shore up your intent-to-return case...

Since the other poster did not address how to get money back without having travel to Canada, I will explain how you can do so as follows: 1) Using internet banking such as HSBC Globalview transfer between your accounts in Europe and Canada. 2) Contact your bank manager or call centre by phone...

Have you actually tried contacting a bank and asking and explaining? Eg "I will be moving to this neighbourhood in March and need to open an account." And a suggestion, I have had more luck from abroad dealing with branch managers or branch staff than with the massive call centers. Simply put...

Hi, here is my situation: I am a Canadian citizen who left Canada about 20 years. Now I want to open a Canadian bank account from overseas (Europe) before I return and transfer in money every month. I do know each bank have a newcomer account, but I do not qualify as a newcomer. I want to...

Thank you ..If i inform IRCC now before AOR will i get AOR more quicker ?

Okay - as a citizen, she can sponsor from abroad - it will still be in your interests to notify IRCC that she has returned to Canada, because then she will (likely) not have to show 'intent to return' and may go a bit quicker. But less urgent. I think there is an address change section on...

It means outland. The spouse is not in Canada. As to whether or not the sponsor is in Canada depends more on your status (citizen or PR) and whether you're eligible to sponsor from outside Canada, and if you are eligible and outside Canada, demonstrated intent to return.
