Agreed, I hate the US airports but the media and government feed the people paranoia which helps to make the "extra security" more accepting to the average US American.

My boyfriend has gotten me addicted to that place. I hate almost all coffee, but for some reason I actually like their coffee. Plus Starbucks (whose coffee is always watered down with ice, here in the Southern part of the US) can't get how to make a hot chocolate with a quarter of coffee in it...

If only their neighbours to the South would take such a stance.

Thanks for the informative answer.

I'm flying in through Edmonton from the States and I would like to know if anyone has any idea on how long it will take them to issue me my work permit. I already have an approval letter from the Canadian Consulate here in the US stating that I've been approved to work, so I just need them to...

Mmk well that may explain it. My boyfriend only had his license for a little under a year so far and has 2 cars. One is a 93' Bonneville and the other is a 06' Grand Prix GXP, but he's only paying insurance on the newer car right now (waiting for me to move to get full insurance back on the...

Ok well I'll definitely get a record from my insurance company. Question though, where exactly do you live for your rates to be that high? My boyfriend is 19, has been driving for less than a year with his full license, and his insurance is only 120 a month.

I just ordered a certified copy of my driving records from the North Carolina DMV, do you think I'd need to get a copy of my records from my insurance company as well?

Hmm I'm not married yet but I'll put in my timeline so far: January 22, 2010: Met online January 30, 2010: Officially started dating long distance May 20, 2010: I flew to go see him for his graduation for two weeks (first time we met in person) October 24, 2010: I went to go visit him again...

Thanks for the clarification on that. And yes the job is LMO exempt as it's a intracompany transfer covered under NAFTA.

I agree with Baloo and also you have to look at where you're applying for a job. If you're applying in a large city with tons of people of course the competition is going to be worse when it comes to competing for work. Canadian companies are going to look at people who already have experience...

I'm going to go work in Canada on a year and a half long work permit soon. During that time I plan to apply for PR under common law with my boyfriend after a year or so. But I was wondering if I could extend my work permit during that time under dual intent if I apply outland, as I want to keep...

Thanks for the feedback. :) I'll be moving there on March 7th with him, but we'll be living with his parents at their house for about a month to 2 months in the beginning more than likely. Still planning to get a joint bank account and all that early though. I think I'll go with option 2 as we...

I've been looking through this forum and haven't really found much, so I decided to start my own thread. So here's basically my situation. My boyfriend and I have been together for about a year now and just recently I got approved for a TWP that will last until July 2012. So I'm moving to...

That's what I was planning to do. :) I'm trying to organize what we have so far before I move so that when we do apply for my PR it will be alot easier.

This is pretty much what I'm doing. Shipping all of my stuff, which should come to about 9 or 10 boxes worth of stuff, via Fedex and so far it looks like it should be about $400-500 dollars to do so. It's cheap and it'll be there in a week's time. :)

Thanks for the advice. :) Haha I don't update it like everyday, so right now it's like 1 or 2 posts every month or so. Which I hope will work in my favour.

Another reason I am not proud to be an American. *sigh* The US needs to step their game up and realize that you can't throw all your problems on everyone else and sometimes you have to take responsibility for yourself. And instead of focusing on Islamic terrorists, how about they focus on...

I'm wondering because over the course of our relationship I've been keeping a somewhat detailed blog about my boyfriend and I's relationship and I was wondering if I could possibly use that as evidence to show we have a genuine relationship.

My boyfriend and I are looking to get me to immigrate there in about a year's time after we've lived together for a year, under common law. We've barely emailed each other over the course of our relationship as we keep in touch mostly through skype and text messages. Is there possibly any way...
