1. You need to get 730 days of physical presence between your landing date in April 2012 and the same date in April 2017 to be in RO compliance. If with your travels you can do this then you are ok. 2. Quick/simple math says you have roughly a credit of say 6 months (183 days) for your stay...

How did it go with the Canadian Business angle to meet your RO days given there were some detailed responses on this back in 2013? http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/-t174534.0.html http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/-t154840.0.html CIC...

Is this a credit card or a visa branded debit card which the Canadian banks have recently introduced into the market place though say Europe has had them for decades. Your reference to ATM and POS indicates its the latter. A credit card would state a credit limit and also a cash withdrawal limit...

The instructions require you to mail the PR VR forms to CIC HQ in Ottawa,ON if you are in Canada so the CBSA agent at the POE may refuse to take the paperwork but he/she may...something to be aware of. If you do end up mailing it use a method requiring proof of delivery.

Just a one liner should be enough - "To enable sponsorship". You can add a target date so you get a TRP to that duration. Let CIC ask for more info if they need to. CIC deal with thousands of such extension applications every year so they are used to it. The CBSA agents at the border have a...

1. Your child if born in Canada would be a Canadian Citizen and a British Citizen by descent. You are best to initially apply for his/her British Passport as proof of his/her British Citizenship as the Foreign & Commonwealth Office does not process births in Canada under Consular Birth...

quinnkazmi, In my humble opinion the impending birth means the chances of the visa post issuing a visit visa despite any stated duration by your husband is pretty slim. There is a sponsorship application in place and your husband is about to become a father and a proud one at that . Once the...

Yes its simplified. Let the forum know how things work out for you.

1. Most airlines allow you to fly up to 36 weeks into the pregnancy but will require medical proof/ a medical certificate. Typically medical advice is not to have a flight of longer than 5 hours duration each sector for when you are this late into your pregnancy so try break up your journey if...

What's the FSW refusal reason? I ask in case it raises inadmissibility issues which will affect future travel to Canada. When are you intending to return to Canada? I expect the CBSA border agent to scrutinize in detail your next admission. You have indicated immigrant intent with the FSW...

It depends on the visa post...some give you the option of mailing or going to a VAC. If the visa post mandates you to go to a VAC in particular if you need biometrics taken then you follow the rules or your 'direct to the visa post mailed' application will get bounced.

Go the USA route. PRTDs are a high risk strategy and it will entail provision of details and documentary evidence of the alleged abuse (that's how CIC will see it unless there is a police/court records) from back in 2006-2008. She should go to the police on the issue of blackmail as once landed...

You are young, have no job, don't go to school so have time on your hands, no assets, not enough money (30K Peso is less than 1K Canadian) and is not enough even for the flight, no 'relevant' immediate family i.e. kids/spouse, no extensive travel history to a country with living standards...

1. Sure you can take your chances for early PR Card renewal based on the CBSA agent's comments but unless I had a copy (and at that certified) of her actual GCMS/FOSS notes on file to back up her comments and include this in the PR Card renewal application I would wait for 730 days. What happens...

1. Congratulations you have successfully re-entered Canada which was not in doubt as a PR but without report which was an uncertainty. Seems the CBSA agent wanted to dig into your declared absences but her senior and likely the Minister's Delegate (who issues the report) decided not to take this...

I'm with scylla on this one. While the new job offer improves your situation its my humble opinion that its not by enough to cross you over the threshold of being a bona fide visitor that will return to RSA. How much in Canadian currency is the entire trip costing you including air fares...

As harsh as it sounds the banks lend money to whomever they want...there is no right to credit. Shop around. Its unusual for one credit search to drop your score to the point of refusal but I notice you just recently landed which may be the actual issue. If you can't get an unsecured card then...

Is the overstay on the most recent admission or just historic ones? How long of an overstay?

1. The visa officer will assess your g/f's socio economic ties. While you support and that of your family is helpful it will not overcome any issues with the ties. 2. On paper this is a classic easy bounce. No funds ($800 doesn't even cover the flight), no assets/property, no travel history...
