Inland PR applications are sent to Vegreville, Alberta. All outland applications are sent to Mississuaga (both sponsroship and PR together) and then forwarded onto the visa office. In your case if you decided on Buffalo the whole application goes to Mississauga, your wife would be approved as...

Get working on putting together your application and you most likely you'll be approved by next March. With an outland application you can't apply for a work permit along with your application as you can with an inland one, its a seperate thing. With an inland app you will get a work permit...

I know many hairdressers in Toronto who don't even have any sort of diploma, self taught. I don't believe it's a requirement in Canada to even have one in order to work in a salon. P.S My bf is German :)

Aha I shouldn't forget about that :) Much better to take rjessome's advice and go the Buffalo route.

Oh I forgot to mention you need to be married or have lived together continuously for one full year.

Once again as I mentioned in a previous thread from personal experience I had absolutely no problems entering with only landing papers. We left on vacation before the card had arrived. Checking in on our way back he was asked if he lived in Canada and showed his landing papers with no further...

I was also going to mention that Scylla. A friend that went with us on our trip only had 4 months left on his passport he had no problems but they advised him to renew it immediately.
