    Study Visa Rejected, Next Options All Include Marriage... Thoughts?

    Seems like this marriage is based on the possibility/probability of obtaining PR status by the husband. Not much of a real, genuine marriage in all honesty. As for red flags, you seem to have them all. May I ask why your fiancé was doing before he met you? Was this business opened with your...

    What we can do?

    Realistically, based on the above you do not meet any requirements to apply for PR. Do you or your spouse have any work experience? With work experience there may be a provincial program which does not require a completed degree, but it will likely require experience. I think your best bet...

    Relocating from Alberta to Ontario after 7 Months

    Exactly! And OPP there is relentless. Single lane each way most of the way, with no opportunity to pass trucks, no cell signal. When it gets dark it’s like a scene straight out of a horror movie hahaha

    Do apartment rental's bargain monthly rent ?

    Was responding to canuks comment which incorrectly stated that each province regulates increases. Oh I’m quite aware of what the market is like), rents have come down in some places (not all neighborhoods though).

    Do apartment rental's bargain monthly rent ?

    With the exception of Alberta (cant speak for other provinces). In Alberta once the fixed lease term ends the landlord can increase rent for the same tenant as much as it wants. It’s not regulated. A few years ago I have seen rent increases in Calgary of more than 100% for a continuing tenant.

    My asylum application is still pending in the US for 2 years.

    Good point. If I were a to be refugee now waiting for a hearing I’d be really wary as there is a huge possibility conservatives will win the next election. And immigration policy and climate will change without a doubt.

    Sponsoring husband from Morocco

    I really wish they concentrated more on family sponsorships rather than on economic immigrants. For us it was quick, we applied November 6, 2013 and my husband received his approval of visa March 26, 2014 and picked it up 1st week in April. It’s so difficult to get visit visa for a spouse ...

People in the forum said pregnancy doesn’t speed up the process but in our case I sent a letter from my doctor to Rabat showing the due date (it was nov 16, 2014) I sent the letter in March and the day...

    Health coverage for child vaccinations before OHIP is activated

    Nothing to do with that as my daughter was 2 years old at the time and the public health clinic didn’t know nor ask if she’s going to daycare or not. Vaccinations are outside the OHIP scope and they are completely free for everyone.

    Health coverage for child vaccinations before OHIP is activated

    Disregard all former replies. With vaccinations it’s a bit different. All you need to do is call the public health nurse to make appointment for your child. They will not ask for OHIP or any other card or coverage. All you need to have with you is information on all and any prior vaccines...

A friend of ours sponsored his wife and they were processed in 3.5 months without interview (this...

    Child sponsoring application question

    It's only a "thing" if a person is a citizen. PRs have to continually live in Canada during the entire sponsorship process.
