In the OHIP registration form, section B there are these 2 questions: 1) When did you arrive to Ontario? 2) When did you take up permanent residence in Ontario? What is the difference? Does question (1) refers to a landing date?

According to OHIP site: To meet the minimum qualifications you must: be physically in Ontario for 153 days in any 12‑month period be physically in Ontario for at least 153 days of the first 183 days immediately after you began living in the province make Ontario your primary home How to...

Thanks for the answer Just to make sure. The rule for keeping the PR status: - be present in Canada at least 730 days during five years period which starts immediately after landing Is end of 5 yr after landing is the same as expiry date on the first PR card (issued after landing)? Can CBSA...

According to my mother-in-law the CBSA officer called someone other (maybe another CBSA officer) to translate to her language and tell the information about being absent 1 year. Why not just mention 2/5 years requirement or why did CBSA officer bother to explain any of it at all (since the PR...

So then I don't understand what border officer meant Right now she is going to stay for a few more months and exit/enter several times this year until she can settle here end of this/beginning of next year But, I want to make sure that nobody creates any issues on the border In additional my...

My mother in law (who is sponsored PR) landed July 2017, stayed in Canada until end of October 2017 and then left Canada until this month (Feb-2019) upon arrival the border officer said that she is not allowed to be absent from Canada for more than a year and shouldn't do it again or she looses...

Thanks for the reply Situation is as follows: My mother has medical problems and lives in nursing home and is under official care of my sister (Probably Canadian equivalent would be Health Care Power of Attorney). However they never divorced and I'm not sure "Legally Separated" would qualify...

Do you know where can I read the exact details (like link)? What if they don't live together but don't have official divorce papers?

Is it possible to sponsor only one parent? Can it be done if they are married, or should they be divorced? What about medical checks are they necessary for both?

So the question would be how do they track half days? Say I exited midday from Canada. is it considered a day in Canada or a day abroad?

Is there an official Permanent residence calculator for 2/5 years? Also can one apply for PR extension if he is not currently present in Canada but did live here for 2 out of last 5 years?

Thanks When can this count start. Only once one parent gets the citizenship or is it retroactively?

A general question is the PR renewal requirement is still 2/5 years in Canada? If one parent meets the 3/5 requirement for citizenship while the other parent is borderline 2/5 for PR renewal Is it possible for one parent to apply for citizenship and once granted the second parent would not...

The CIC became very fast post changes that removed 1-2 years of qualified applicants Post June 2015 there were not many new candidates illegible to become citizens. Mostly people that waited much more than necessary to begin with. Only in the recent months the stream of application should begin...

They know that wait time is 4 years to become citizen. if it will be shorter it is just a nice bonus besides I'm pretty much sure that once the bill becomes law it will create a backlog of extra 1 yr+

It is now 1.5 years since June 2015, when C-24 became law People that became PR after June 2015 did so with understanding that they need 4 years of physical presence to gain citizenship, so for these people the new law is "fair" It was "unfair" to people like myself that had to wait 1-2 years...

Unlike other people bill C-24 won't be applicable to somebody who renounce their previous citizenship. In case of the asker, since Canadian is his only citizenship it can not be revoked, as revocation is only applicable to dual citizens

Are any new citizenship rules expected by current liberal government? Being that most of the immigrants right now will probably be eligible for 4/6 rule by the time Bill C-6 is in force does anybody still supports this particular change (4/6 to 3/5 and counting the pre PR time)? I now think...

My parents are visiting (non Canadian residents) and use a prescription drugs. They want to extend their stay for another 2 weeks. The problem is that 1 prescription drug going to end in middle of that period Is there a way to mail the drug (prescribed to non resident in another country)? What...
