    ::Possible to land in Ontario and move to settle in Quebec immediately?::

    They should not apply for OHIP unless they are planning on living in Ontario for at least 5 months afterwards. Otherwise it would be health care fraud. They can apply for their SIN's in Ontario though. Then they can join you in Montreal and you can accompany them to apply for RAMQ. A PR is...

    Can I renew my PR card while visiting Canada?

    There are no rules against applying for a PR card while you are visiting in Canada. You can even find that in some of CIC operational manuals. You just have to be upfront about not living in Canada at this time. When you fill out the form, in question 12, strike through the "in Canada" part...

    While you are under an appeal, you can renew your PR card for one year at a time. If you win your appeal, you can renew it for a 5 year period. However, keep in mind that having won the appeal excuses your not meeting the RO in the past but not for the future. That means for example that you...

    Sponsoring a child over 22

    The way you describe him it doesn't sound like he's severely disabled. He is slightly limited in what kind of jobs he can do and unsteady walking is not a problem in many jobs. Maybe the problem is that he is being coddled by his mother and allowed to sit around the house and do very little...

    As others have said, Canada doesn't care how many passports you have but your home country might so check with your home country before you apply. I remember some guy on here saying that it's not a given that Germany will grant you the right to keep German citizenship if you take Canadian. He...

As far as I can google, they plan to make the change from under 19 to under 22 effective as of October this year and it will not be retroactive for old applications.

    Can I change my Martial status after I got ITA?

    After getting married, you absolutely must include your wife on your application. There is no way around that except divorcing her again. I can tell you what happens if you don't. If you continue your application now as a single person, you are actually committing misrepresentation to...

    What does the medical examination consist of?

    It's a standard medical examination. The doctor has you strip down to your underwear, listens to your heart, takes your blood pressure, has you read an eye chart and asks you about anything that is out of the ordinary that they might notice. In case there is a problem, they may defer you to a...

    My partner was cheating on me and stayed to get PR. What can I do now?

    It may be odd but it's not definite proof. If there is nothing written, it may not be enough for immigration to go on. Even if there is something written, it's still not under your control what immigration does, if anything. You can report it and that's it. Immigration may decide to talk to...
