Yes, this is the big concern for a lot of us who are living exclusively outside of Canada. If they allow Canadian citizens to sponsor while living abroad, then CIC needs to be, and probably is, realistic when it comes to proof of intent to return to Canada. If you can't get the proof they...

The "living exclusively outside of Canada" is a confusing grey area (I was in same position as you) - BUT if you have been in Australia for 8 months and plan to stay there during your application, I would say you would be considered living exclusively outside of Canada. - I was a...

I would include it as part of your plans to return ... or let them know about it once you are in Alberta if you just want to get the application out.

Your wife can not officially "move" until she has her PR visa. There is no way around that. she can however come as a visitor getting her here as a visitor could be the hard part depending where you are from. Visa-exempt Countries are alot easier... If she needs a visa she is going to have to...

My wife and are are about to send our PR application. She too, is from Taiwan. I have just been doing some last minute searches to make sure we have done enough to process this as fast as possible. We are also afraid of the change to Hong Kong and what this may do to our timeline. I am...

If you qualify for a working holiday visa, you should be able to apply for it before OR after you file for PR. The law in Canada allows for "dual intent" and you shouldn't have any problems either way. If you go on the WHV and then file once you are in Canada (remember: apply OUTLAND, even if...

Congrats! The feeling is awesome!! Enjoy this time...and yes...the wait begins again...crazy! As for staying away from the forum, I agree. I haven't been posting as much and I haven't been logging in very often as well. Life does go on and now that stage 1 is cleared, all that is left to do...

Oh good! By that time we'll both be here so that wont be an issue :) Thank you!!!

As far as proof of relationship, it's all subjective. Keep in mind that you need to be able to convince a skeptical stranger that you're genuine, not just living together as roommates, etc. Also keep in mind that you'll want to send a few pieces of evidence showing that you're living together...

Hello, I'm in the process of compiling proof of my relationship with my husband, whom I'm sponsoring while living with him aboard. During our engagement in 2011 we were apart until our wedding in December, we've been living together since. I've tried to print our call history/text message...

The in-depth check of the sponsor (incl intent to return) is done during step 2 so you should be fine :)

Hi Everyone: This is a great site with a wealth of information and I’ve learnt a lot. I am posting up my case hoping that a few of you can help me out with some advice. I apologize in advance for what turned out to be a very (!) long post, but I wanted to be as clear as possible. Sorry! About...

Hi IrinaAbdNova, Below is a link to Operational Bulletin 423 (Reassessment of a medical file for the issuance of a new medical certificate) In June 2012 my wife had a request from Moscow to redo her medical and to provide an updated police certificate from Russian MVD. Both expired after one...

Hey. Wow they have been working on your file for so long! You have to order GCMS/CAIPS Notes, you can see everything about your process in there, the visa officers make notes regarding your case. You will probably be able to see the reason to why it is taking so long and work from there. It will...

No reason why it should matter. You decided to start living in Abu Dhabi. Now you want to move to Canada so you are going to apply. There's people that apply just after getting married, others who apply years after being married, and others who never decide to live in Canada. As long as...

I have another question and would appreciate the advice, I hope its no problem that am asking a new question on the same page! Here it goes! As I'm filling out the application and writing my letter to showcase my intent to return to Canada - would it be an issue for the immigration officers that...

Glad we cleared that up :) Since you may not have caught it in my prior post: if your husband is not Emirati (or a national of a GCC country or Yemen) you can request the visa office of his nationality process the application. It may be much faster. To find the alternate VO, look at...

Even if you have children, there is still NO income requirement (unless being sponsored as a dependent). We have a son together (he is a Canadian citizen), but there is nothing required for us to prove we have a certain amount of income. I was approved as my wife's sponsor without question...

You need to provide proof of your intent to return to Canada once your spouse is approved for PR. What steps, if any, have you taken to leave Vietnam and be re-settled in Canada? Yes, I know you don't have a departure date because you have to wait for her visa to be approved, but what are the...

Yippee for your FS.....you are now ahead of me in stage 2!!!!! Hope everything else moves just as quick for you!!!! ;D
