    Convention refugee dealing with home country's embassy

    Is there a way you can use your lawyer or some other sort of representative to do the required paperwork? As noted previously, an embassy, even if located in Canada, is not Canadian. It is the sovereign property of the embassy of that country. When you step onto that property you are effectively...

    Because your daughter is a US citizen is it easier for her to enter Canada as a visitor. The problem will be encountered when your wife tries to enter Canada.

    COPR needed for oath?

    There was at least one person at my oath ceremony yesterday who did not have his COPR. I do not know what they did for him at check in, but I do know that he did take his oath and receive his certificate.

    Question About Past Relationship

    They do not contact the previous partner (s). I suspect it is just to ensure that your current relationship is legal. Common law relationships break up all the time. I would include a short note explaining that the relationship broke down and that it is no longer valid. No need for great detail...

    ask for scheduling oath in Toronto instead of Vancouver?

    If the files were there in totality, they would have no need to transfer the paper files. GCMS are available with two options. Electronic and then 'paper file copy'. If you want the latter, it takes much longer and they need to physically photocopy your file in it's entirety which is then mailed...

    ask for scheduling oath in Toronto instead of Vancouver?

    Yep. Encryption is found on ALL of the things that get hacked, hence the term hacking. If it wasn't encrypted, then that is just 'looking' at public and available data. It is very much all found in the electronic world, I'm sure. But none of it is compiled so neatly as to be linked to one...

    Can dependent be a sponsor?

    The rule only applies to those people who were sponsored via a spousal sponsorship to begin with. Since you arrived as a dependent on an economic immigration visa this does not apply. With that being said, you might expect that your application will face some extra scrutiny if you recently...

    Second sponsorship

    As long as you send strong proofs of marriage and relationship you should still be able to be approved. Just expect that there will be some extra scrutiny on this application due to the fact that it is the second marriage and sponsorship from the same area.

    Husband

    Sorry, no, you can't if he has already landed as a PR. Even if you sponsored him through the spousal stream, condition 51 no longer applies. This is a domestic issue, not an immigration issue.
