You'll need to declare the overstay in your application to Canada. Ideally you would remain in your home country for s while and reestablish ties before applying to Canada. Just make sure you declare the overstay. You don't want to end up with a ban from Canada. Good luck.

It needs to do both. It certainly needs to be accurate or you'll end up creating complications and delays for your application.

If he wants the 50 points, then his employer needs to get an approved LMIA.

Wrong forum. You need to post to a US immigration forum.

You need to reapply for a new study permit. Your original study permit would have been canceled by IRCC once you dropped out of school.

Based on your original post, he has been living in the US for a number of months. A person can absolutely take a vacation outside of Canada but this doesn't sound like what your brother is doing. When does he plan to return to Canada to live here?

No, you can't claim the points. Yes, that would be misrepresentation if you are claiming he is living in Canada when he is not.

This is incorrect.

Not really true. We have a number of individuals on this forum who have successfully pursued mandamus to force IRCC to make a decision in their case where their case has taken an unreasonably long period of time. Immigration is not above a writ of mandamus. Of course it's a personal decision...

This is actually incorrect. I know since my husband has to file US taxes. The US tax system is in some ways harsher than Canada's since you have to file taxes on your worldwide income even if you are a non-resident (like my husband who hasn't lived there in 10+ years).

It would be taxed as income so basically taxed the same.

You would pay a combination of provincial and federal taxes on your income generated outside of Canada. Your income generated in Canada will not be tax free if you are living in Canada.

Based on the information you've provided, I think you would need a work permit since you would be categorized as unpaid workers vs. volunteers. You will want to see if you can qualify for an LMIA exemption under this rule...

Just Kijiji and Facebook Market alone will not be accepted. Yes, the advertisement must be on Job Bank. This is mandatory. The advertisments must also be in two other places apart from Job Bank which are consistent with the occupation audience. Generally speaking, Kijiji is not accepted however...
