So we will need to file for taxes in the US when my hubby is living and working here in Canada? How does that work? Does he get double taxed? Is there any website that explains it? I thought you had to file in the US only if you made more than 100k a year so I'm confused.

I forgot to update but my hubby landed in December! It was issued at the end of November! Yay!!! He has an interview for an assistant manager job on Wednesday, we got our own place, our kitties and doggies are happy and we have begun trying to conceive! Life is finally how it should be!

COPR went to the US and not to me. I know I set my address as where it should go because mail is always stolen where my husband lives in the US. In the end his old roommate is forwarding it to us but through regular mail it will take a while. Anyone know how long COPRs are good for typically? We...

Update: his COPR went to the US even though they were supposed to send it to me. We got his old roommate to mail it to us but she could only do regular mail and it will probably take a while especially with the holidays coming up. Does anyone know how long it takes before a COPR typically...

So they sent the COPR to the US and it's being mailed to Canada it will likely tack on 2 more weeks how long is the COPR good for?

I didn't even know he was supposed to have an ecas until recently and when I tried it nothing comes up. I put my mailing address for all mailing addresses. I got his roommate to check the mail she said he hasn't received anything at that address which was listed as his he address on the...

Oh my inlaws don't speak English if they did that would be awesome!

Remind him! My hubby is craving hispanic food but it's not common here at all.

Congrats! Hope you enjoy it here! Don't forget to get recipes from your home town you will want those ;)

What visa office?

If you get it before SA call them and ask where to send it. It is annoying but there is a way to talk to a person with persistence. My side as the sponsor was done when we got the FBI check and when I called they told me to send it to 219 Laurier Avenue West 7th floor section B Ottawa K1A 1L1

Which ever processing center is handling the sponsees part so for us it was Ottawa.

Third week after DM on ECAS waiting for the letter. Now we are concerned it is going to the US which would suck because he was here when it went to DM so we just canceled his flight back until we got the papers. I've always gotten the other papers here in Canada and the address on our ECAS is my...

If you mean the FBI check it has to be a print out from the FBI and they do not accept copies, faxes or pdf. This is why you cannot use a third party organization either, it must be printed at the FBI.

I send in an explanation and sent the FBI one in much later and I went to DM just waiting for our letter in the mail, they never even contacted us to ask for it so I would guess it got added properly so I'd say it's a safe thing to do I am sure they aware of the crazy wait times with the amount...

All our correspondences have come to me the sponsor in Canada, is it possible because we applied out of country that even though we specified they contact me in Canada they sent his papers to the US? Also we do not have any line saying that the papers are sent but my understanding was that they...

We are still waiting for ours this will be the third week we have been waiting since the DM on ECAS. I am starting to worry but also with the refugee crisis and holidays coming I would not be surprised if things were delayed some. I will likely call next Monday if we do not get it by Friday.

I just know there used to be a note about how they will contact you and I thought I read earlier in the posts about it still saying something else on top of the 3 things ours said which it has said since in progress. If it is just that yes sometimes that is all it says and there is nothing to...

This is funny because right now I am 10 mins from the Ottawa building processing the application and we have to wait 3 weeks to get it in the mail. That is the government for you.

We cannot even access ECAS via my husband's information. He has never gotten a letter in the mail in the US either. All our correspondences have been through me in Canada. So where do they send DM paper work anyways? We are waiting for it and he was visiting me in Canada when his PR status went...
