Also the final document checklist is asking for proof of medical exam. Surely that's not required to extend your visitor visa, is it? I feel like I've clicked on the wrong link. Can someone provide me with a link of where I can apply for the visitor extension? Is this something we can do from my...

I'm going through the visa online questionnaire for my wife and I'm a little confused by this question: "Are you accompanying a family member who has status in Canada?" Well first of all, we're all ready in Canada so we're not accompanying anyone anywhere. My wife is living with me and I'm a...

On the application form, which option do you select for why you want to extend your stay? "Other"?

I'm looking through my emails and I see I got one that says that I meet the eligibility requirements for sponsorship, Is that the same as an SA? I also have a letter saying that the application has been forwarded to Singapore for processing. Would that be good to add? Is it better to apply by...

I am sponsoring my wife, we applied outland in the beginning of May and then moved to Canada in mid-July so her 6 months will be up in mid-January. I'm just wondering if there's any general advice for extending. Should we be applying as early as possible or should we leave it as late as possible...

I'm sponsoring my wife for PR and we arrived in Canada on July 12th. I'm sort of jumping the gun on this but it seems like PR is going to take a long time. I have a question about applying for an extension. I found on the checklist that they want a photocopy of your passport with the stamp of...

She is from Japan, so yes, she is from a visa exempt country. I suspect that most of the asian applications are done through Singapore. Thank you for your help Sebinh, I hope that you will be able to spend time with your wife soon!

She has already applied outland. The application has been in Mississauga since May 3rd. I was told that she could apply for an extension to her temporary visa once the first one expires as she is in the process of getting the permanent visa. I was just wondering if this forwarding on to...

We sent our application (for my wife) to Mississauga in the beginning of May and then in July we moved to Canada (with her staying as a temporary visitor. I haven't updated our address yet but I got a mail from immigration yesterday saying that her application has been forwarded to Singapore for...

Just a quick question as I got a message from CIC last night: "This message is being sent to confirm that the Application for Permanent Residence for your relative(s) has been forwarded to the visa office in Singapore for further processing. " Is this normally what happens with applications...

Just a quick question about updating the request. They say that if you move you should update your address but I'm not sure if my wife has technically "moved" or not. We left Japan and moved back to Canada but my wife is technically visiting while she waits for her permanent resident visa to be...

Should I be concerned about my wife's application? I was approved to sponsor my wife but my wife never received any requests for PCC, medical check, schedule A on her My CIC account. It seems like there was some kind of screw up in the system last month. The original application was received on...

Haha, thank you. I was sort of wondering whether that was sort of a password that needed to be spoken or if it was just sort of implied. In that case, I'll just say she's visiting and bring along the message I got from IRCC saying that my application to sponsor her was approved. Thanks for the...

One thing I forgot to mention is that my wife is Japanese. I believe that Japanese nationals don't require (or just automatically get) a temporary visitors visa so is there any need to declare dual intent? Can we just say she's visiting and she should automatically get a 6 month period to stay...

My family and I are about to travel (move) to Canada. I've sponsored my wife and she's currently going through the long process of becoming a permanent resident. When we get to customs in Canada, what should we say about my wife? That myself and my kids are moving back to Canada and that my wife...

I managed to get through today but it took me an hour almost to get into the queue and then when I finally did there was a 30 minute wait in the queue. I talked to a very nice gentleman named Ben and he didn't even ask me where I was calling from.

My wife needs to take her medical check and we'd like to do it while we're in Japan (we leave in about a week and a half. I (the sponsor) received my approval to sponsor and was told that my wife needs to take a medical. However, even though we've linked the account (on Jun 1st) and I received...

Thank you for your advice Rob, I'll look into it. Much appreciated.

Just curious what most Canadians do upon returning to Ontario when they're no longer covered by OHIP. Myself and my two Canadian citizen children will be arriving in Ontario mid-July and I know that we have to wait for 3 months for our OHIP to kick in. Should we be getting health/travel...

So you scanned it? My wife's pcc in Japan is in a sealed envelope and says "only valid if received in a sealed state" so I'm wondering if I should just mail it to the immigration center.
