    sponsor a 4years boyfriend in PH

    This is why the whole idea of common law is ridiculous. People should have to make a conscious choice of forming a marriage-like relationship. Automatically declaring people essentially married when neither of them wants that or even realizes it, is silly.

    I want to sponsor my husband

    As a citizenyou dont need to bein Canada to sponsor him, but you both need to show you do plan to live in canada once the PR is granted. There is no minimum income required, just as long as you havent been on welfare.

    3 Months pregnant will private insurance company will cover till OHIP active

    If she is not pregnant yet, you can indeed find private health insurance to cover it, but you will have to look around a bit. It's not that much more, especially if you are just buying 3-6 months worth.

    Can Immigration revoke Permanent Residency?

    Then why don't you just trust her when she says she's not having an affair and move forward? She still works with her ex, so obviously she is going to occasionally talk with him. Most men who are secure in themselves and in their relationship would not have a problem with that. I don't know much...

    Getting nervous to cross the border--- TIPS?

    Theres no issue (for people from visa-exempt countries) in disclosing that you are getting married in canada and applying for sponsorship. Seriously. Many forum members have done that. I believe Rob TO has done that if i'm not mistaken. Jessness was flagged and grilled because she crossed 13...

    Getting nervous to cross the border--- TIPS?

    You seem to be implying to the OP that he should tell CBSA he is moving to canada (the truth) rather than say he is just visiting (a lie). If that isnt your intention then yes I did missunderstand.

    Getting nervous to cross the border--- TIPS?

    You also crossed the border 12 times in one year, which shows up on their system and was probably a red flag because by that time you are beginning to encourch on actually "residing" in canada, or at least thats how CBSA sees it. You say yourself you didn't have issues for the first 12 crossing...

    Getting nervous to cross the border--- TIPS?

    You shouldnt have any issues at all. Two things to avoid saying are that you are "moving" to Canada rather than "visiting". And do not say you will be working. ( Or volunteering. Or going to school. Or doing odd jobs around the house like painting. ) Thats it. You can tell them you plan to get...

    Some questions and advice needed

    Yes Expect no issues. You might want to bring a copy of your PR application and letters from CIC regarding it. I dont know Theres no reason to be worried about the crossing. Yes just extend the visa every 6 months. There should be no issue with doing that. No, you will never have...

    Dont wish to sponser spouse from pakistan: in big trouble : HELP !

    I agree. People are showing very little sympathy, calling her names, getting angry, and failing to understand her difficult situation. In Canadian society we no longer have an honour associated with family. None. Family, and especially marriage are essenetially meaningless in Canadian society...

    Conditional PR - Please help

    Condition 51 doesn't care if you are a "genuine couple". It cares that you cohabit for 2 years. Theres nothing in the wording about being a genuine couple. The wording is strictly about forcing a particular lifestyle on the couple for an additional 2 years. You could, theoretically, be the...

    Dont wish to sponser spouse from pakistan: in big trouble : HELP !

    A nikkah only wedding where the couple haven't spent any time together is not a genuwine marriage as far as CIC is concerned. All couples, including married couples of all nationalities need to prove their relationship is real, not just provide a marriage document. She even said the reception...

    Conditional PR - Please help

    You got lucky. People who do have condition 51 are also not given any extra documentation explaining they have to conform their lives to the whims of CIC for another 2 years. The VO at our landing even said directly to our faces "go ahead and go overseas to study". I really don't think they even...

    Dont wish to sponser spouse from pakistan: in big trouble : HELP !

    CIC will not contact your family. YOU will be the sponsor. CIC will only tell you and your spouse of the rejection. You can ask people on here who have been rejected what the letter was like and how detailed it was. It is possible to request CAIPS/ GCMS notes and that may show the reason for...

    Dont wish to sponser spouse from pakistan: in big trouble : HELP !

    It will cost society more if she sponsors him for a PR. A few months of welfare is pretty minimal. Anyway, i'm just giving solutions without moral judgements.

    Dont wish to sponser spouse from pakistan: in big trouble : HELP !

    Fill in the paperwork . When it asks you to describe how your marriage is genuine, include a letter that describes how you feel, that you don't love him, hardly know him and don't want to live with him. Be honest. To do otherwise would be to committ misrepresentation. This will also result in...

    Thank you for FINALLY explaining who you are and what your role is in this. Everytime you post people have asked you what your role is and you have never responded before.

    We all see different things, no one reads every post. But you can't have missed his spamming. Yet you make no mention of it. No thats not true. I asked them not to spam and not to doxx. And I think those are appropriate requests to make. I always encourage everyone to contribute and would...

    I've never bullied anyone, but I do face bullying on here from the "clique". When people violate etiquette and attempt to destroy what makes this forum so useful by creating at atmopshere of distrust, you're right it makes me unhappy. I don't just troll the forums spamming random "+1"s...
