question i forgot to seek the answer to: So as I have an AOR now (THANK yOU CIC GODS!), what can I show to prove my legal status in Canada? Can I show the AOR notification from my spouse's email? My visitors visa expires in June, but we won't file again as I am under implied status for the...

It might look odd, but really they just want to see that it's a genuine relationship and that it isn't one of convenience. When you fill out the application, you'll have to show that it's a legit relationship. So, include things from the past 8 years that you've done in your relationship. We...

Yep! As it's an open work permit that you are applying for, you won't have any employer info. Leave it blank. I would, however, put the intended occupation and intended location if you can. For instance, I put teacher in Winnipeg. However, this may change but that's not really a concern. I...

that's awesome! congrats on the OWP! can't wait to work....

oh dear god, that will prove near impossible. taking 3-4 months to get the ones i need for PR! quite discouraging. thank you though!!

anyone know the answer to this?

THIS IS AMAZING NEWS!!!!!! Beer is flowing, beer is flowing. :D Congratulations

Cool that you can work :) The AOR actually came in my wife's inbox. She's the sponsor to they typically send the AOR to them. But we got an email. What an awesome surprise to find!

Never been to Sherwood Park but I have a soft spot for the Oilers :) Hope that team can get it together this year! My wife and I just got our AOR about two weeks ago. Are you on the spreadsheet? If not get a hold of Rusty53 and ask to be put on it. You can see where everyone who applied in...

Ahh! Haha it's okay, plenty of hockey craziness for the entire country :P Terrific! Yay Oregonians! And congrats on applying! What a huge relief it must be, at least it was for us. Where are you in Canada then? Good ol' Portland, lovely city. Strangest city as well :)

Haha it's actually pretty nice. Cold today and yesterday though :o But I love the cold so I'm happy! Oh and I get to watch the Jets all the time which is awesome (except last night :( ) As an American who watches hockey, it's strange to be suddenly surrounded by people who actually watch...

Awesome! I am living in Manitoba currently and I hear Saskatchewan is great. I might be heading out that way soon to see a guy about a work permit :P I also went to school in Tacoma, WA so I love the I-5 Corridor area of WA. :D

Right. I would go with the Permanent Residency Department and the Unit Number one. More detail means less confusion. I remember sending mine to the PR Department one.

Haha thank you! Is is my lovely wife and I :D We are from Oregon. Are you from the States?

I may be wrong but I believe those documents are for when you need to apply to a country that is not your home country. The fingerprint document is generic for any office to use, and, I think the other is a request application instructing them to send the security clearance to you. I used...

hey gang can i use the security clearances that were sent in with my PR for a work permit application also? the originals are with CIC, so am asking if they would use those that are there already or if i would have to get them all over again. the clearances proved nearly impossible to get...

Hey gang, so I am an American living in Canada on my visitor's visa. My wife and I filed for PR and are waiting for it to be processed. Now, I am applying to teaching gigs in Canada. A school in Nova Scotia wants me, but they're not sure what to do in regards to getting me a work permit...

we also wrote on the back. it was at the end of the whole application process so I was a bit tired of the formalities. as such I wrote things like, 'My wife dancing up a storm! Isn't she beautiful?' and 'Our drive through the mountains, no pee breaks ack!" If CIC doesn't have a sense of...

Are the two different all together? Or is one just more detailed? I seem to remember one being more detailed.

Yeah, saw that after I posted. Thanks Rusty.
