    November 2018 Outland Applicants (Spousal Sponsorship)

    Hi-- I am applying from the US and planning to move to Montreal. Things in my application seem to be moving quickly, so quickly that the Montreal documents are holding everything else up. I don't remember the exact timeline, but I received notice to apply for the CSQ in Montreal in mid-Feb and...

    November 2018 Outland Applicants (Spousal Sponsorship)

    Yes... Application Received - Nov. 20 AOR1 - Jan. 25 SA - Feb. 7 I'm applying to Quebec, so I don't know what comes next: AOR2, MR, or request for undertaking application to Quebec. They are all mentioned in the SA letter. But things are moving along.

    I think just that... I'm just slowly coming to terms with the fact that I should apply for a CSQ and permanent residency while fantasizing that there was a way around it.

Showing intention will be pretty easy--we will put our apartment in the US for sale around December and will...

    I actually don't have any teaching qualifications (aside from 12 years of teaching)--I teach at independent schools in the US, which don't require any. I do, however, have two MA degrees and PhD training, so I'm going to look at private schools and Cegeps. I've talked to people at both who have...

    Thanks... to be clear, if I get permanent residency in Canada, is my family able to move directly to Montreal? I guess I'm having trouble figuring out how Quebec recognizes PR status gained through spousal sponsorship and how that affects my ability to start applying for jobs.

    Hello, I've had a hard time finding anyone at the consulate or VAC to answer any questions, but I think my situation is probably fairly straightforward for anyone who knows the system. My wife (Canadian citizen, US green card holder) and I (US citizen) are considering a move with our two...
