Hey folks, Slowly but surely my wife's application is coming together. So close to it being complete now, and ready to send off (hoping this time next week it'll be done!) So, the final part I haven't tackled yet is this Financial Evaluation form (IMM 1283). I was just skimming the guide and...

Hey folks, Putting the finishing touches to my wife's PR application! Just noticed that a few of our forms printed are European letter sizes, and some are North American. I wish it was as simple as just printing them all the same size, but we have signatures on some of the pages, so that'd be...

Thanks :)

Hey folks, This may seem like a silly question, but knowing how inflexible this whole system is for mistakes, I just wanted to check... I'm sponsoring my wife to join me in Canada. Just her alone, that's it. So, we answer "1" to that question? It doesn't include myself... correct? Thanks :D

Ah ha, thank you for clearing that up Alurra - I must have missed it on the forms. Of course, we want to have everything done and dusted before sending it off so we can forget about the whole thing until it's all processed :)

Haha Merci... unfortunately my Armenian is really bad, so you'll have to tell me that in English please :P

Hey everyone :) I was wondering if anyone knew the ins and outs of the medical from former Soviet states? I've been told by some people that my wife (Armenian-Syrian duel) does have to do it before we apply, and also that we can do it later on too. One less thing to sort out before we submit if...

Drat! Ok, thank you :)

Hi guys, I'm a PR and I'm sponsoring my Armenian-Syrian wife outland (she's in Armenia, me in Vancouver). I couldn't see the specifics of eligibility online. We've been married for a year now - does anyone know if she'd be eligibile? Thanks :)

Ah ha. She lives in Armenia, and has done for about five months now. She also lived there for six months in 2012 - she's not lived in Syria for almost three years now...! I guess I could cite humanitarian and compassionate grounds? She doesn't get the best of treatments in Armenia, largely due...

Hey folks, My wife is a duel Syrian and Armenian citizen and we're currently in the process of sorting the paperwork out to submit. Recently, IMM0008 has been updated, and the question to fill in where you request which visa office your application is processed at has been removed. We want to...

Excellent, we'll do that then. Thanks! Does anyone know the ins and outs of the medical from former Soviet states? I've been told by some people that she does have to do it before we apply, and also that we can do it later. At this point I really don't know who to believe! We've almost got the...

my wife is duel Syrian and Armenian national. We are applying with her Armenian passport (quicker process, and Syria is obviously a place with lots of issues right now). However, my wife has never worked in Armenia. They also ask for the "work book". Should we just get one, translate anything...

Thanks baffiee :)

My wife is an Armenian national, and thus we are supposed to provide a "work book" too. However, she's never worked in Armenia (she spent most of her life elsewhere), so she doesn't have a work book (although apparently you can simply buy one from a shop). What would be our best course of...

Hey, Glad to see I'm not the only one who is going through all this :) We haven't been able to file our paperwork yet, as we're missing a few documents. I wanted to ask you - were you able to send off your papers before your partner had completed the medical? Also, did you get that "work...

I spoke to my lawyer, who told me that the Moscow office closed down, so all Armenian applications are now being processed in Poland. Quicker processing times too which is nice!

Hi folks, I'm in Vancouver and my wife is Syrian-Armenian. She's in Yerevan now and we're putting together our application. I have various questions for anyone who might already have applied for PR. Anyone around who has applied? One thing - the Work Book we are required to provide. My wife...

Just saw this - so to clarify specifically, being enrolled on Pharmacare in BC will have zero affect on being approved as a sponsor? :) Also, receiving GST Credit?

Ah great, thank you for this :)
