    A little UNCERTAIN, please help...

    Well you didn't answer the question. Is your mom already a PR or citizen of Canada? Or did she apply for PR and you are her dependent?

    A little UNCERTAIN, please help...

    If your mom is just sponsoring dependent children, then you are all principal applicants. However, if your mom has included you on HER PR application as dependent children, she is not a sponsor. SHE is the principal applicant and once approved, she must complete the landing procedures BEFORE...

    Extensive travel history?

    There's no security check done on the sponsor. Only an RCMP check to ensure the sponsor meets the requirements of the Act/Regs pertaining to eligibility to sponsor. When you are required to fill out a travel history form as an Applicant in a family class case, you do not have to complete the...

    Organization of Common Law Applications

    Ok, I'm going to say this one more time. Use a big binder clip or elastic bands to put it all together as ONE package. You will REDUCE the likelihood that CIC will lose something because they had to remove stuff from folders or remove staples. The visa officer assessing your file will NEVER...

    Extensive travel history?

    Travel history can be part of the background check IF the persons bio data triggers any red flags such as name and date of birth the same or very close to a person on a "watch" list. Background checks can take a VERY long time in certain cases, especially if someone has entered countries...

    Sponsoring US Husband - Question about Document Checklist - Sponsor

    Send a cover letter explaining that the FBI report is coming and you will send it to Buffalo as soon as your sponsorship has been approved and you receive the file number from Buffalo. They WILL want it but it doesn't need to slow anything down. Just make sure you WAIT until you get the file...

    Flagpoled to Get New Work Permit - Question about original employer

    Not really. It's just two weeks that you are really dealing with. She could take vacation or even keep working. Didn't mean to scare you as a 6 week difference is not going to be seen as a big deal like a 6 MONTH difference would.

    Proof of Funds for Spouse Open Work Permit

    Funds should not be an issue as you are employed and the intention is for PR because of the PNP. $12K is more than enough.

    Flagpoled to Get New Work Permit - Question about original employer

    It does get cancelled. You cannot legally hold more than one work permit at a time. However, as I mentioned previously, it's not a big issue for CIC/CBSA when it comes to enforcement. I wouldn't recommend longer than 4 weeks of her continuing to work for her current employer though. Where...

    You only need to submit one copy of the actual proof but it doesn't hurt to repeat the answer in a similar question.

    TRV at Buffalo without a passport?

    NO. You can read for yourself on their website. And it takes 30 days because they are BUSY. Buffalo is the busiest visa office for Canada in the world. You might want to try LA office. http://www.canadainternational.gc.ca/los_angeles/visas/apply-how_a_demande-comment.aspx?lang=eng&view=d...

    Staples

    A staple is not going to result in a refusal. But if you want to cause less hassle to the person deciding your fate, I'd do what they instruct. When a file gets to CIC all staples, folders, dividers, clips, etc. are removed. Then it is reorganized (if necessary) and a hole is punched through...

    How To Verify Fake LMO ??????

    No you can't. That's a FAKE website. Geez. Is your consultant a member of ICCRC? Check to see if you can find them listed here: http://secure.iccrc-crcic.ca/search/en If not, the job is probably fake. You could also contact another consultant by email to ask if they would help you verify...

    Need Advice on Flag-Poling Please!

    1. There is no "best" border. But I would use a crossing that is busy as there are likely to be better trained CBSA officers there and better hours for immigration matters. CBSA mainly deals with customs issues. 2. As scylla said, no. 3. Passport, letter from CIC Buffalo, new employment...
