If and when I get my PR card, what happens to my US passport? Even if I live in Canada as a PR, I can not get a Canadian Passport. So, do I need to keep renewing my US passport, or is there a procedure with my PR card if I decide to visit the US after I start living in Canada?

You all are correct...My wife sometimes doesn't explain thouroughly. The apps are going together to Missasuga then to Bufflao (or how I understand). Everyhting will be sent by 7/7 since thats the earliest I can get police clearances back to me. We are not going the Alberta route since I am still...

Um...we are doing the missisauga thing....she will have her app sent to missisauga then mine will go to Buffalo. No worries there. I guess i didn't explain correctly. We were told i should be with her in Alberta by New years at the least.

We chose this way because it would be in our favor (with the CIC in mind) to do it this way. I have a job here in Oregon and she has her job in Alberta. I current am still here in Oregon, so it is already an outland application (if I understand it correctly). I am currently not in Alberta at the...

My wife and I have started the process of getting me to be with her in Alberta through the Family Stream. We are using Cohen et. al. to help us. At this time, we are still having the apps looked over before Her sponsorship apps are submitted - I hear that my apps will be submitted later after...

When filling out the application (the PR for myself), I realized something that could be a 'red flag' for a visa officer? My wife and I have been married since May ( in Alberta) after 8 years of courtship. We were engaged since 2002. We found that during this relationship (including the...

My wife (In Alberta) is sponsoring me to come to Canada. I have seen posts about conditons that would hinder someone's application for a PR. I have a form of athsma that has never been severe. I do take medicine every day for it, but I can go for a few days without it and not have any effects...

Thanks all.. Boncuk - I just married her on May 16th. This is after a long distance courtship of almost 8 years. The daughter is actually a step-daughter. My wife runs her own business and may decide to add me on as a partner if immigration will let her. My step-son was my best man since a lot...

You were pulled aside because you mentioned you met your friend 'on-line'. For some reason, immigration officials feel that meeting a person in this manner is not a 'true' socially accpetable act and they must let you know of this fact by excerting thier power. Immigration people are much like...

Just bumping up here. Anyone out there with advice/suggestions?

I just married a Canadian Citizen on May 16th. My now wife now plans to sponsor me to move to Canada. I have known her since 2001 and we have visited each other several times before we married. I live in Oregon (US) Questions to whomever can answer. 1. Will she have any problems visiting me...

Hello...Me again :) The American with all the nice questions. I just had my FSW application sent back and the money due to be refunded from Buffalo becuase my NOC code was not that of the new 'list of 38'. I plan to wed my Fiance in May in Alberta and then we plan to have her sponsor me as a...

My fiance and I (border agents permitting) will be married in May in Alberta. After that she plans to sponsor me to live in Canada. 1. It is official in that my Orginal PR application (Federal Skilled Worker) has been sent back due to not being in the occupation list of 38. Will this have any...

I plan to visit my Fiance in May. Usually I take Air Canada exclusively From Portland to Calgary and back with Customs in Vancouver both ways. This time I am thinking of a combination of Horizon Air to Vancouver, then customs, then Air Canada to calgary, and then taking Horizon Air Back to...

I went to visit during Christmas in December, 2008. I know that I have 6 months from that December date for staying in Canada. However, I did come back after Christmas vacation to my home in the States. Is that stamp still valid for entry into Canada, or do I need my Passport re-stamped with a...

Over Christmas, I successfully entered Canada and had a wonderful Holiday with my Fiance. The YVR border agents did not ask about any PR status. However, now comes another question. My Fiance and I are planning to have our wedding in May in her town in Alberta. We are getting married just in...

Thank you AMB :) I am planning to use the Campbell Cohen people to help with the apps, and hope they can keep(and use) for me, at least, some of the forms I have already filled out. Only problem could be that (when looking over the forms needed for family sponsorship and such) some of the...
