    Marriage before landing

    A google search yielded the following thread with cases similar to yours, albeit for Federal applicants, not Quebec. http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/should-canadian-spouse-to-be-included-in-application-t276380.0.html Their experience is basically what I suggested...

    Marriage before landing

    Hello, I think the best way for you to get good advice is to call CIC/IRCC and ask them about the best course of action (you don't have to give them your information, or just ask them hypothetically). That being said, here are my two cents (and it is all just my opinion, so feel free to...

    Quebec Immigration Options for UK Citizen

    This is a very dangerous piece of advice and a recipe for disaster. On his way back he needs to convince the border officers that he's not "living" in Canada, which is exactly what they will suspect when they see someone has been staying in Canada for six months, then steps outside for "seconds"...

    Quebec Immigration Options for UK Citizen

    Hello, I think you have it figured out. The common law route seems straight-forward with the evidence you have gathered. Pictures, letters, proof of visits and/or cohabitation, joint banking should be sufficient. You can also take a look at the spousal sponsorship questionnaire which will give...

    Correspondence request by CIC

    I agree with deepax. Of course no one can here tell you with certainty what the correspondence is about, but passport requests are normally associated with the "Decision made" line in eCAS, not "we sent you correspondence". You need to inquire about it with your lawyer and be mindful that most...

    I assume your third bullet point is meant to read Déclaration d’autorisation du garant ou du conjoint cosignataire - in French If so, then you're good. Godspeed!

    Selection Certificate documents check list

    Question 2.2 asks your spouse whether she has a "de facto spouse" while she is married to you. Typically, "No". Question 3.1 should be skipped (read the little note next to question 2.1) - answer 2.1 and 2.2 then skip to 3.2

    No. This is irrelevant and won't help the documents get accepted. The proper instructions are in the table linked in my previous answer.

    First thing to do after landing

    You can tell them that during landing, and they will give you a form to fax in later with your address once you know it. It's also perfectly fine to give them a friend's or relative's address who can receive the card for you, should you choose to do that.

    Again, you can do whatever you want, submit the receipt now or submit it later when they ask for it. Once you email the receipt with your information (UCI, Date of Birth, address, phone), they will attach it to your file. They will not get confused or forget you paid.
