    PPR from Berlin?

    Hey Maya, is your husband German or Dutch citizen? Does he have a long travel history or has resided in lots of different countries? I wonder why Berlin takes so long to start processing (March to June), when they have other cases (hopetoland, kaychris, omegazeroday) finished in that period?

    September 2011 - Here we go!

    I still sent it with registered mail and I got a tracking number, it will just take a bit longer around 10 days max. They said it could be that I can't track it outside of Germany, so to be sure I also paid for a delivery card, that gets sent back to me automatically, when the recipient signs...

    Sponsor's Residency??

    that's what I had in mind too. But for the Question in the Sponsor Eligibility Assessment: Do you reside in Canada and in no other country? If you answered NO, but are a Canadian citizen living exclusively outside Canada, you may still be eligible to sponsor. As you said, he is not living...

We are planning on filing early September. We are in Germany right now, he is on a Working-Holiday-Visa, which expires in October, so we...

    I am confused, please help

    That's what I thought first too. But I thinks that's wrong. Provide the details of your personal history since the age, 18 or the past ten years, whichever comes first . So if your in your fifties, age 18 comes first. If your under 28, ten years come first. I think that's how it is. But maybe...

    Conjugal and Common-Law... No chance?

    Oh, and the working holiday visa is far easier and quicker to get, so if he wants to move to Canada early 2012, that seems the best option.

    Conjugal and Common-Law... No chance?

    Hi, we had pretty much the same problem. I think we could qualify for common law, but we don't have much proof. So we decided to get married. We wanted to get married anyway within the next two years and why make it harder with the application, be nervous about it and wait a long time and then...

    Sponsorship application package from 2009 still acceptable?

    I had the same problem, but I found out that this section only applies for people that are currently living in Canada. Try putting Canada as your current country of residence and you will be able to fill it out, so if your country of residence is not Canada, this does not apply to you. But I...

    Brit applying within Australia

    Hey, I'm not sure if I can help, but I'd apply for a WHV first, because it's really easy and fast to get (if there is still availibility for this year) And then I'd start collecting everything for the PR Application, which is a bit more time consuming to prepare. And the better its prepared and...

    Translation of Police Certificates needed ?

    yeah, I won't send a translation of my passport or personalausweis either, because they are international. And I think bank statements explain itself. I'll get the police certificate translated, because I got that answer, but you really should send that email with it and you won't get any...

    fast process

    @ pinklady when you came to Canada again, after your visit over Christmas, did you have any problems getting in? Don't you have to have ties to your home country? Did you tell them you had an application running? Did you have a return flight? We are in Germany right now and are planning on...

    Translation of Police Certificates needed ?

    Yes, everything that is not english or french needs to be translated. You have to include the original and the translation. I asked the embassy in berlin about that.

    What classifies 'residing' in other countries?

    It seems like there is some different opinions on the 'residing exclusively outside Canada' topic. That is the one thing I'm not sure about in our application. I'm german, my (soon to-be) husband is canadian. He is in germany right now on a working-holiday visa, but he is not working (Language...

    Common-law proof

    Thanks for all the help. I also got a reply from the embassy in Berlin saying that a 'Unterschriftsbeglaubigung' (either from a Notary or a 'Amt') is enough. But they also said that the statutory declarations are not that important and documents that prove, that we live together (tenancy...

    Common-law proof

    For the notarized letters, is it just any form of letter and the Notary has to put his stamp and signature under it, what is he confirming, the indentity? Do you know the German word for notarised, is it 'notariell beglaubigen'. For the statutory declaration it needs to have the sentence : I...
