    Hey guys, Do they notify the sponsor of sponsorship approval, or the person being sponsored? I can't remember if I put my email address (I'm the sp) but I know my fiance did. Thanks.

    I'm with you on the anxiety bit! I've been checking my email at least three times a day to see if we've heard anything about sponsorship approval. Nothing yet, but I'm sure it will happen this week or hopefully next. I just hope we have someone who's on the ball looking through our...

    May 2011

    Hello all! I didn't realise there was a May '11 thread. We sent our forms to Mississauga on May 13th and they were received on May 16th. Still waiting to hear about sponsorship approval. It seems to be dragging! I'm sponsoring my common law partner (living in the UK) and our daughter...

    Medical test - test of virginity

    Doesn't this post just show what a lot of rubbish the medical exam is? I mean, reading from different posters on here, no one exam is the same. So what EXACTLY is the medical for? Because different countries examine different things. Surely, when it comes to immigration, there should be...

    Proof of relationship

    Don't forget to have a minimum of two people who know you both well to write a solomn declaration that your relationship is geniune and ongoing. A lot of people forget that!

    Sponsorship first step

    So we've finally sent all of our forms and proof off to Mississauga for processing, I believe the next step is for them to send it on to London, UK. How soon will we get a tracking number, or know if everything's going through okay? Thanks.

    Needing help with fees

    Thank you so much for your reply. I bet a lot of people have made this mistake of overpaying on fees, and unfortunately they are not reimbursed.

    The Waiting Game Is A Terrible Game

    Could be worse, you could be apart from your wife AND child, as my partner is. Stay positive. 12 months from now, you'll look back on this period of your life and it will just be a small part of the many happy years you'll have together in Canada.

    Needing help with fees

    I'm a permanent resident living in Canada sponsoring my common law partner (in the UK) and our dependant child (in Canada with me). I'm trying to figure out our fees. On the calculation page is it 2 Right of Permanent Residence, or 1? (do I include my daughter on this, she is nearly 3?) Also...

    Your travels form from UK

    I'm sponsoring my common-law partner who resides in the UK. In the pack we dowloaded there is a Your Travels IMM 5562 form, but it's not listed on the document check list. Do we need to complete and send this form with everything else? Thank you.

    Advice needed!

    Applying from outside of Canada is always the fastest way. So get married outside of Canada and apply from outside. You are a Canadian citizen, so there is no time frame for you being out of the country. If you think you could both put up with it for a few months, you should stay in Canada and...

    sponsor 12 month earnings

    Thank you so much for your reply. I was beginning to worry that I would be unable to sponsor because of this reason. Your answer has put my mind at rest. All the best.

    sponsor 12 month earnings

    I'm half way through filling out my sponsorship forms to sponsor my common law partner and our dependant child. The forms as asking for my net income for the last 12 months. Problem is, I'm unable to provide this as I only returned to work in March after having our daughter. I survived on the...

    Medicals

    Hi folks, I'm taking my two year old daughter for her medical this weekend and there is some confusion as to whether or not I need to take along with us photos of her. I've read somewhere that you need to take 5 recent photos taken over the last six months, but then I've read the photo...

    Processing times from London?

    Okay, so the guide reads 8 months. But I would like to know your own personal experiences. How long did it take, or how long has it taken so far? Thanks! (BTW I'm sponsoring my common-law partner and our dependant child).

    Sponsoring dependant child from within Canada.

    Thanks Baloo, I've just seen on another post that it gets sent back to the London visa office, silly me! It's so confusing isn't it? No wonder there is money to be made by immigration lawyers! ;)

    Sponsoring dependant child from within Canada.

    Hi Leon, would you happen to know the London address to submit our application?

    Sponsoring dependant child from within Canada.

    Thanks Leon, So I don't need separate forms for her, considering she is WITHIN Canada and my partner is OUTSIDE of Canada? She goes on my partner's forms, is that correct? I thought it was separate forms depending on where you're residing.

    Sponsoring dependant child from within Canada.

    I am currently in the process of sponsoring my family to come to Canada. My common-law partner, who resides in the UK, has filled in all the forms he needs to and is currently gathering his evidence, ect. My problem is sponsoring my daughter, who resides in Canada with me. She is only 2yrs...
