Couldn't have said it better myself, @Hurlabrick, and you are speaking from personal experience. Doing a soft landing and eventually moving back to Canada shouldn't really be an issue; but I do foresee a potential issue for @swisscanadian's husband (I'll refer to him as Mr. Swisscanadian) if...

For your husband's application to be approved, you have to show that as the sponsor you intend to return to Canada once he has been granted PR. I am not a lawyer, but it is my understanding that despite having received the sponsorship approval, for your husband to be granted the travel document...

I'm not at all familiar with refugee status applications so maybe someone else can help you here with advice. I don't know whether or not that will speed things up any further, either.

How did your wife and sons apply? Are they Citizens or did they receive Permanent Residence themselves? If they applied for and received Permanent Residence; did they include you as a (non-accompanying) family member on their application? Family class is the highest priority for IRCC PR...

Thanks.

Hello everyone, I started the application process for PR under EE twice, but abandoned each application after the ITA stage, so never formally applied (did medicals once). It was a tumultuous time for me personally and professionally; I couldn't handle the uncertainty of the immigration process...

So is he applying to sponsor you to come to Canada? As what, common-law relationship? As far as I know, only the principle applicant has to submit documents for their family members. The definition of family members does not include siblings or parents. Only children and potentially...

What is he applying for as a Canadian citizen?

Hi, If your boyfriend is a Canadian Citizen then he would be the sponsor in the application. I assume that you are applying to come to Canada. Under which category, common law? In that case, you would be the principle applicant.

I believe you can also call IRCC and ask them to look in the system notes to see what documents are requested. There's also an email form. Both of these options may be quicker and easier than trying to decipher the GCMS notes to find our what they are requesting. Sorry I can't provide you with...

From what I gather, September applicants are still waiting for AOR and SA, so there may be a bit of a wait for October applicants. Hope your application goes smoothly!

Medicals are generally only valid for 1 year. Usually your CoPR will have an expiry date which is a year after the medicals.

Note: this post has been edited with new information. Your parents will be let in to Canada as long as they have a valid PR card (which you say they do). The regulations are clear in that your parents will have to have been in Canada for at least 730 days in the first 5 years since becoming...

To me it makes sense, because the older (2016) applicants may already be at the visa offices. Mississauga therefore is likely keeping 2017 applicants in house to make sure that they're not piling on more work for the visa offices which will allow them to focus on clearing the backlog. I agree...

Mississauga from what I understand isn't a Visa Office, so I would guess that they do not have the systems in place to properly issue the visas that get put in the passport. So rather than train the staff for this element and implement the systems, it gets "outsourced" to offices that are...

There can be country-specific requirements. If you got the checklist from this page: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/spouse.asp and you selected the country you live in, the site will have returned any additional documents. I see a Portuguese flag in your profile, if your...

Thank you for your reply, @majesty. I will probably go in to this company while I'm in Toronto and get it done before submitting the application. Perhaps a more general question for anyone, would there be any use in sending the certificate upfront with the application rather than wait for the...

@LMBF : Medical Checks and Criminal Records will be requested separately. If you followed the document checklist and submitted everything as required on that (and any supplemental information based on the country-specific requirements) you should be fine. From what I read, it looks like you've...

http://www.dhl.rs/sr.html in Serbian http://www.dhl.rs/en.html in English If I do a check about sending something today from Belgrade, it should be in Mississauga by the October 12. It would cost RSD 5,333 for an express envelope. Whether or not this applies to you I don't know but the website...
