    I am currently in the US, but overstayed a voluntary departure.

    Hi, if I understood what you want to do: US Immigration decision of denying your CG because of your status will not change just because you moved out to Canada, they have everything on file. If you try going to American consulate in Canada the decision will be the same as they will see...

    Will Overstaying in the US effect my application?

    Mate If you are the main applicant and you became out of status, it could be a problem for your application. Anyways you cannot move furniture to Canada if you don’t have residency in the country. (Even if you plan to put things in storage), this is due to tax and importation rules. The best...

    how to change the city of reside

    Like it was said above do not request to change the destination city, it doesnt matter. I would only matter if you changed to some place in Quebec (because that's a different process).

    if I hold MBA Marketing Degree but my job is as Finance manager

    I think you will be fine. CIC would have doubts and call you for an interview for sure IF lets say your studies were in "agriculture" and you are applying as "IT Manager" for example. Your studies are closely related to what you do as a profession.

Most people in your situation dont even bring docs, only passport + hotel + plane tickets. One thing is...

    I wonder how immigration lawyers feel about the new rules...

    Experience from past job as target title from NOC. It is Ok?

    One way around this I think is for you to ask two sealed envelopes of your transcripts. One you open and have it translated and then you send the translation and the other sealed envelope to CIC. They will be satisfied as it will be sealed and translated.

    WHICH VISA?

    One question on the same topic: If the main applicant is successful in getting a temp work permit then his/her spouse is guaranteed a open work permit isn’t it? In another words, CIC will not evaluate the spouse work credentials and then make a decision right? Thanks!
