1. No 2. Yes. 3. 6-8 weeks You may not get a visitors visa. If you want guaranteed entry into Canada show up at the border in March via airport if you are visitor visa exempt and its before March 15, 2016 or a land border entry. You will be admitted as a PR. Even if reported you get 30 days to...

Present copies of what your wife has to CBSA at the border when you next return to Canada. You will all likely be sent to Secondary Inspection anyway and they will be able to check their databases and confirm your identity and PR status (the original immigrant visa sticker in her passport if she...

1. Most responders/ forum participants are volunteers so you may not always get a response in a time frame desirable to you. If you need an immediate response/advice then typically you need to seek that from a lawyer and pay the going rate. 2. The most important aspect of PR Card renewal is to...

You need competent legal advice/support which is beyond what the forum can help you with. Contact the owner of this forum or check the website of the professional legal association of whichever Province you reside in now they will have a list of lawyers dealing with immigration.

You can land at any time prior to the expiry of your PR immigrant visa. Some people leave it to the last day or day before then get held up with airline/airport/bad weather etc issues ending in a bad situation.

1. Your Residence Obligation (RO) makes reference to your landing date so ignore whatever date is on your PR Card its irrelevant to the RO. 2. To comply with the RO you need to have 730 days of physical presence in Canada over a 5 year 'rolling' period. This means each day the RO window moves...

Since CIC knew PRs would be lining up to set up small time mom and pops incorporations not for profit but to comply with the RO they made the rules for this exemption tight. If both you and the company meet the rules then you are good but make sure of this before you leave or else you will be at...

1. RO compliance can be met via any combination of own physical presence days and accompanying citizen abroad days 2. Its better if you either move together (first time) of if you move first then she follows (even if this is a day later). This way you are not caught up in a 'what is the correct...

Use the TRV form and tick/select 'other' in the details of my visit section. Include a separate letter asking for a TRP and the reason for this. You need to include the correct fee for the TRP (C$200). If the TRP is denied then one parent typically remains with the child and the other parent...

Apply for a 'Standard visitor' visa as it allows both transit and entry into the UK for tourism purposes. Usually you start off getting a 6 month visa then build up to a 1,2,5 or 10 year visa. But depending on your socio-economic ties you may get a 2 year visa initially which at the current...

No. Some candidates will get the same test. This because the number/versions of tests while different is nowhere near the number of test candidates

No doubt. The Primary Line may get to 'show me your COPR' and when they see its in the first 5 year RO period after landing or certainly in the first 3 years wave you through. Anyone showing up with an IMM1000 will be lucky not to go to Secondary.

There are 2 schools of thought on this: 1. It doesn't matter since PRs have a constitutional right to live anywhere they want in Canada. 2. It depends and it may be an issue one day. PNP has conditions including an intent to settle in the nominating Province. Intent can be viewed differently...

1.The message is 'you may' not 'you will for sure' be reported when you enter Canada in breach of the RO. By default this risk increases the more you travel and interact with CBSA. Being reported depends who you find at the border. Some agents feel sorry for people and may buy your story, others...

Is this 2016 admission on a fresh I-94 or does he have a new F visa too? Typically visa posts are not fans of I-94 extensions as the sole proof of non-immigrant US status they prefer to see a visa too. I concur that his economic/ personal situation is what matters not that of you as the sponsor...

Even if its accepted how long will the employer hold the job for you as the immigration paperwork process is bound to take some considerable duration? But based on your list of posts in this thread I'm puzzled why if you want PR you are going through the whole hassle of regaining PR by giving up...

You won't hear anything from CIC unless: 1. there is an investigation based on CIC's suspicions/ intelligence 2. random check by CIC as part of program integrity 3. a party to the relationship has notified CIC of an issue 4. someone other than in 3 has 'notified' CIC of an issue Why not...

peteb11, Long term solution is to apply for Canadian citizenship while you are still qualified. The requirements have this year become more onerous and they may continue to do so. This in particular if you intend to or will have extended absences from Canada. The UK and Canada both accept/ have...
