I have an application pending under the FSW class. However, it looks as if I am not under the 38 occupations and will get my application sent back with the mentioned refund. I have been engaged to a Canadian Woman for 7 years now, first waiting to get enough money to send an FSW class...

OK then...if it has not been sent back by the time I get married in Alberta, is it possible to amend the application and put that application in a new stream?

My application for a PR will most possibly be sent back with a refund due to the new 38 occupations that were revealed recently. I live in the US State of Oregon. With that in mind, is it still possible to marry my fiance (who lives in Alberta) and then re-apply for a PR under a family status...

From what I have researched on it, investment is for Managers and business owners, of which I am not of. To claim as such would possibly considered fraudulant.

I was born in the US and have lived in the State of Oregon all my life - so an H1B wouldn't cut it. I do not have one since I am an American by birth. I just want to be with my fiance - that's it. Short and sweet.

Option #2 - however, you will have to realize that there is a strong conservative flavor in Alberta and Western Canada. How can you topple a stronghold like that?. In any event, it seems kind of silly fast tracking certain occupations when there are many people (which includes myself) that are...

In light of "the 38", what is the best plan of action? 1. My fiance lives in Alberta. She is very upset that her party of choice in Ottawa has done this. Now I am wondering if it would be prudent to get married to her in Alberta, then have her sponsor me as 'Family' to get me on a fast track...

What about an expunged record? I have heard that even though your record is expunged (pardoned, sealed and removed from records via a court order), the expungment is not legally honored in Canada and it is still considered a conviction in the eyes of the CIC. Is this true?

I have a relative that was convicted of crimes over 20 years ago. The crimes have been expunged (wiped away and/or sealed) years ago. I have heard that Border officials do not honor such expungements and that they will either send my relative back or incarcerate him/her at the airport/border...

"They allegedly should hear something from the Minister by October" Are we assuming that will wait until after the Federal Elections on Oct. 14th? Seems logical - then again, we ARE talking about the CIC minister...

Anyone else?

If someone can verify these, it would be appreciated. Rumours are that the Conservatives are calling for an election. If there is one, what are the chances of the Conservatives losing power? Then, if the Conservative do lose power, will the winning party reverse the new immigration...

My application was sumbitted through the law firm helping me around April 30th or so to the Buffalo, New YorK consolate. I am hoping not to be interviewed, but if I am asked for an interview, I hope it is at the Seattle, Washington consolate since I currently reside in Portland, Oregon (Home of...

However, the letter (given to me through the law firm handling my application) states that I was given a provisional number and that I need to sit tight while the minister gives out guidelines on what to do. One step closer...

AOR recived. By law firm handoling my application - 8/12/08. Notified by such firm - 8/25/08.

I have a question about tavelling to Canada in light of the wait for the AOR from Buffalo, or if they give the AOR by the time I plan to travel. My fiance (living in Alberta) is wanting me to be there in Alberta over Christmas. It would be for a week which would include Christmas day. My...

After everything is accomplished and you are ready to land in Canada, what can you bring in your moving van when you do move to wherever you go to? Are there certain items you can't bring (other than the usual firearms, ect)? I have a collection of CD's, and a collection of recordings from the...

If the IO lets you into Canada for a "Visit" (say you showed them tickets for a return trip after 2 weeks), but you decided to stay longer (up to 6 months, I belive), would they send somebody to to get you and send you home? Now for the extra kicker...add to this a fact that the person has...

Many of us are waiting for the CIC minister to give the consolates "marching orders" (It's the best description I could think of) in terms of Job Lists and protocol for handling of the applications submitted to Buffalo and other locales after February 27th. My fiance in Alberta informed me that...

Would an IRA count as prooof of funds? I own no land nor do I own a house. All I have is an IRA and a checking account. I listed only the funds in my checking account in the initial application.
