    Indian Passport Renewal from BLS Toronto

    This is the kind of situation in which I hope your friend is working with a good lawyer. Someone who deals with refugee cases may actually be a good bet. Good luck to her!

    Indian Passport Renewal from BLS Toronto

    Just received my passport via Purolator. Submitted 4 July, granted on police verification not required basis. Received 9 August. Pretty seamless though getting the actual application in took two visits (BLS gave appointments for a day their office was closed, so I had to go back again), and...

    Previous spousal/common-law sponsorships

    This makes sense, thank you, and there are all available proofs for the current relationship because they live together and are clearly very committed. They are wondering about previous relationships and whether those will be examined in detail, primarily because of sudden breakdown of one...

    Previous spousal/common-law sponsorships

    If a Canadian citizen based in Canada wishes to sponsor their common-law partner (on work permit in Canada) for PR, but has sponsored a spouse/common-law partner twice before, is this likely to be a problem with immigration?

However, I have just realized that Purolator will require a photo ID to let me receive the parcel, and my only photo id was my existing passport, which BLS has...
