    Asking for a Work Permit while applying for a Family Class PR

    Considering Sao Paolo has a max processing time of 10 months it's well worth it for you to consider applying though there. The only downfall is if there is an interveiw you would have to return for it. Another thing is there is no appeal when an inland application for any reason is refused...

    Getting PR through common-law - How?

    It's tough to know what you need and don't need before you actaully start looking into the process. I had no idea the amount of documented proof we needed to supply until I actaully started researching. I guess it's time to start joining your lives together immediately and then wait a bit...

    Getting PR through common-law - How?

    They want to know you've joined your lives as well as just lived together. If its just both names on a lease you could just be roomates. They need more proof.

    Travel document requirement for US passport holder - (PR processed)

    Leon although my bf is German they did ask him at the airport before returning if he was living in Canada. He answered yes and they asked for documentation of this. Perhaps it was because he was flying in on a one way ticket.

    Need help, bringing Methotrexate

    Hi there, Carry all your meds in a zip loc bag. As long as they're labelled with your name and doctor you should have no problem. The letter from the doctor is okay but not necessary. Unfortunately the majority of travel insurance do not include doctors visits (unles for follow up after an...

    I would include all that u can possibly think of. I mean if they're REALLY personal I would try to select the ones u feel comfortable having someone else read. You definitely want to show the progression of your relationship over time. We practically lived together from the time we met so we...

    in or out PR application?

    That's okay, its a frustrating process for everyone. We didn't include a common law declaration. It's actually not required but sometimes they will request it. You fill it out and get it notarized. When you were in Jordan did you have any mail (jointly or idividual) that was addressed to the...

    Provided you've lived with your partner for a full year (proceeding Sept 2010) I agree with rjessome that applying Outland would be the better way to go.

    Travel document requirement for US passport holder - (PR processed)

    Thanks for the link! I would have played it safe as well. Wouldn't be cool not being allowed on the plane :) There was no way we could have got a travel doc as there was no embassy located on the island we were on so we took the chance and no problems.

That way you don't have to fly back home if an interview is required as previously mentioned. My bf is German citizen who was on a...

    Buffalo, NY or Mississauga, ON for processing centre?

    When you pay your fees you choose Mississauga because that is where you will initially send the application. On the medical you were correct to put Buffalo because that is the visa office processing your file. So you're perfect!

    Another idea! How long were in Canada on your skilled worker visa? If you have already worked the amount of hours required in a skilled position you may be elgible to apply for the Canadian Experience Class.

    Sponsoring parents

    That is the correct amount of months. If your mother can get a visitor visa approved (showing ties to home country emplyment, property, assets ect.) to show she will return as a visit is just that she will be allowed a 6 month stay and can apply to extend her visitor status within Canada. There...
