As an American, you should apply outland. There is no reason for you to apply from within Canada. The processing times for Americans applying outland are anywhere from 3 to 12 months (though 4-8 seems to be more common). Whoever said that it would take 3 to 4 years is completely wrong. You...

Look in the application package, there are details of what they accept as proof of intent to return to Canada, from memory these include - mortgage or rental agreement, acceptance letter into school, employment offer letter, etc. We gave an employment offer letter and copy of our mortgage and...

exactly. the documents you requested will help the officer make a decision, so no one can tell you how long that can take. it could be once the officer gets the information, they are convinced the application needs to be approved, or it could prompt more questioning. if the request was for...

Oh?i was requested police backround check for the current country I live in (as I've now been here over six months) and my sponser was requested proof of intent to return to Canada. I imagine its only requests for passports etc that mean the application is about to be approved? :(

I suggest you get at least a few more letters from family and friends. We also applied while outside of Canada. I included several letters from family and friends confirming our intent to return to Canada. The most important was a notarized letter from my parents stating that we would be...

I'm heading back at the end of this week and my partner will follow at the end of November. We booked our flights awhile ago, and I wanted to head back earlier in case there was any doubt of my intent to return. Plus he has to finish up work before coming.

Thanks. with the increased speed of an Outland application as pointed out previously this seems to be the best option. We own a house in Canada that we share with my mom and my daughter has already enrolled in school so it would not be easy to document intent to return to Canada. Thanks again.

Assuming she's Japanese, she's from a visa exempt country so waiting out the PR process in Canada won't be an issue for her. Many people on this board, including my Korean wife, have done the exact same thing. Just be sure that when she arrives in Canada she is clear with the CBSA officer that...

I do not speak from experience but from reading the forum I know that: Many couples establish common law but coming on a visitor visa and extending it online. You can't work or study, but it can be difficult to get a work visa and expensive to study in Canada as a foreign student. However...

Yes and this is very important. You should give yourself a maximum 1 year time frame. So don't even submit your PR application until you and your wife are certain you will move to Canada within the next 1 year.

Inland application is strongly not recommended. It means you will be obliged to stay in Canada without working or studying (and possibly without healthcare) for over 13 months (until you get stage 1 approval - currently taking 13 months and counting. There's a huge backlog.). You risk losing...

Cool!thanks rhcohen! I have another question... Here's what they have requested from me: " > Police Certificate: From each country/state where the residence period has been six months or longer since the age of 18, provide an original police clearance certificate: -...

no, this is the standard way most applications are entered into ECAS. for the most part it means, the application has been entered into the system, and probably transferred. it does not mean it has started processing or an officer is looking at the file yet. you will know your file is...

Hey all!just got an email this morning requesting more documents.so they must at least be looking at our application! From me they requested a police check from the country i currently live in. But from my sponser they requested the following, " > SPR's residency: Evidence...

Thank you everyone for supplying as much information as you have. I'm really pissed now. How the hell would we have ended up in the 'complicated' pile? My husband and I have been married 14 years and have three children (who are duel citizens!) How could that be any simpler?? They questioned...

if you will be traveling, and continue to use your parent's address as your permanent address, then you don't need to change anything. once you move to a new place, and you want to start receiving your mail there, THEN you can contact CIC about changes to your address. they aren't going to be...

Read this guy's (Fencesitter) posts, to give you some ideas regarding what other documentations you can provide to prove your intent to return to Canada :-). The guy was staying in China, so he had to show proofs of intent to live in Canada...

I think the absolute most important thing you need to focus on is your proof of intent to return to Canada. The genuineness of ur relationship wouldn't be questioned too much.

if you intend to live in Quebec (and you were also born there), then you'll have to go through an additional step solely for Quebecers: that is submitting an undertaking application and a request for the CSQ (certificat de selection du Quebec) + an additional tax. if you live outside the...

Hi 1. Generally, the Confirmation of Permanent Residence, COPR, is valid for about a year from the medical date. For that reason, you want to do the medical last, as close as possible to the actual submission date of the app. If you're just starting now, then it will probably be October before...
