I have the same question. My husband is legally resident in Canada and we applied through Buffalo, thinking it would be faster (it wasn't -it has been sloooow). Anyway, he initially obtained a constancia de antecedents registrales. His mom got it for him and sent it here and we submitted it with...

In my case, I was not able to marry because I had an abusive ex-husband who stalled my divorce proceedings as a final means of exercising control over me. Since you have the hubris to speak for God, perhaps you can tell me what God thinks about that.

You're speaking out of both sides of your mouth. You state some very offensive things about common law folks (couching it in terms of '"It might just be me or the people I've met" is mere sophistry) on the one hand and then ask not to be judged for your own choices on the other.

Why would having worked for the US government hold up the application? Does working for a level of government in Canada matter?

Ha ha, yeah, I totally hear you. I am happy but also kind of like [whiny voice] "But they applied after me" or some such thing and then I start wondering if something was wrong with my application. And part of me is wondering if everyone is going to get PPR and I will be here alone posting...

Hi canadianwoman, I have been following your case and I am very sorry to hear that your appeal was refused. If you are considering judicial review I believe there may be very short time limitations so please move quickly. It is worth getting an opinion from a lawyer because this area of the...

Amazing spreadsheet Sauga! Congrats to all who have seen their cases move forward. I have nothing to report on our file except that I am slowly going crazy and want PPR now. Now! Wait scratch that, I want it yesterday! :P

According to a recent article in the Toronto Star, Buffalo approves 95% of its spousal sponsorship applications. Thought we could all use that little piece of good news to keep in mind while we suffer through the endless waiting.

Well, we're not American but we're in the same situation as you sogwap. I am the sponsor and my partner is from Mexico. He was living in Canada as a temporary foreign worker and we met here. We moved in together and the immigration path looked easy. He would stay at his job until he had two...

Both. We received an AOR through the mail. After receipt we checked ecas and it said "in process." sbwv09, the more I look at your email the more I'm sure they've just come up with a way to tell people they have their apps but just haven't officially started "processing" yet. But I'm...

Congratulations Canuckgirl and nez! Both excellent timelines. canadausa, it sounds like you're wait is nearing its end as well. How wonderful! Everyone, please keep the updates coming!

Lysiana, I am confident you're about to get an approval. Lucky you! Amine, I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you. I hope these folks in Buffalo are just on summer vacation and will pick up the pace soon. For financial reasons I need my spouse to be able to work before February. I start...

Hi there, We have been "in process" in Buffalo since June 11, 2010. We applied to CMC Mississauga in mid April. We never received an email like this. We received approval from CIC Mississauga indicating they were sending the package to Buffalo, and then an actual letter from Buffalo in June...

I pop in here once every couple of weeks and quickly scan for relevant subject headings, so I for one really appreciate it when people name their subject titles in detail. (Obviously I click on the odd strangely labelled thread out of curiosity, like here, but this is the exception.)

We made our application for an extension of my husband's visitor visa in mid-may and we received a one year extension this week. Our sponsorship application has been "in process" in Buffalo since June 11.

Do you (or does anyone here) know of a website where these requirements are set out explicitly for Ontario? My partner is in this situation right now. His health card renewal was rejected. I think we're out of luck because I am sponsoring him outland, but it would be nice to see some kind of...

My spouse is Mexican and we applied outland through Buffalo. His temporary status here was going to expire so we just applied to have it extended, and we mentioned that there is a pending sponsorship application. You can definitely apply outland while working in Canada, but you'll still need to...

Sorry, just saw this now. We received a letter and also our status was changed to "in process" on ecas.

My partner applied to renew his visa and therefore has "implied" status. His health card expired at the same time as his original visa and they would not renew it on the basis of the application for an extension. They told him he needed to have the approved visa extension or else the approved...

1. Will the fact that I have been denied as a visitor affect their decision of allowing me to enter as a worker on a foreign vessel? -I don't see why it would, as far as I know the hurdle you jump with a work visa is obtaining the right Labour Market Opinion, but I suggest you ask in one of the...
