    After passport submission, how long does it take to get the Visa! for Phil.

    Is this an outland application? Are you applying as common law partners or conjugal partners? In any case, if they asked for additional evidence, then apparently you didn't submit enough when first applying which means they are not yet convinced you are really in a conjugal relationship. So...

    IMM5490E

    No no, put down all visits. Your relationship didn't start the day you were married. The whole point of this form is to explain how your relationship developed and previous visits are of course part of that development.

    permanent resident want to bring fiance to canada

    As a permanent resident, you can sponsor your family to come live with you in Canada. For a partner, you can sponsor either a common-law partner, a conjugal partner or a spouse. Common-law partner is someone you've lived with for over a year and can prove it. If you have lived with your...

    Visa rejected for 4 times

    I think having a husband in Canada will only be a bad thing as far as getting a visa goes. This means you have ties in Canada (a husband) and are thus less likely to leave when your visa expires. That's possibly why you were rejected. But I'm no expert. Hopefully somebody with more information...

    Common-Law Marriages

    I can tell you how I could do it. I don't need a visa to visit Canada for up to 6 months. I could go to Canada, stay with my husband for 6 months, leave to visit home for a week, then return to Canada for another 6 months and then visit again and so on. Of course, I wouldn't be able to work in...

    Police Certificate About to Expire

    I've heard it said it's ok as long as the application arrives at the CPC before it expires. It's possible she will have to redo it before being issued the visa though. We sent mine in shortly before it expired as well. I'm expecting that after they process it all, they will request a fresh...

    117(9)(d) - SPONSORING WIFE

    Did you notice the date on that? Vol. 137, No. 39 — September 27, 2003 I don't have an answer for you, just wanted to point out that this isn't really a change. At least not a recent one.

    Welfare

    I don't believe so. If it was your sponsor who was on welfare, it would be different since she'll be legaly obligated to provide for you. But for you, no, I don't think it makes a difference. I just sent in my application, I'm the sponsored partner too and I don't even remember any income...

    Which of these solutions sound best?

    One of the easiest to get indicators that you're not planning to stay in Canada longer than you're allowed to is a return plane ticket. Though it seems you don't know when you'll be going back, especially if you get an interview, that could alter your plans. But, you know, the option is out...

    Cross-Border Telecommuting???

    Sorry, I'm of no help. But since I might be doing something similar, here's a bump. Hope somebody comes along who's had experience with this. I'd be working for a company in Slovenia, while living in Canada. NO clue how that would work though. EDIT: From the info I found, that is not income...

    Medical Exam, Appendix D?

    1. fill out Appendix C and take it to the doctor 2. when you're done with the medical, you will get a filled out copy 2 of IMM 1017 EFC from them. It's a little green form which you include with the application. I'm assuming the DMP you're going to will know more about what they're doing then...

    Question about Sponsored Spouse Questionaire

    To me, there's a difference between staying together and living together. I stayed at my husband's house for a few weeks, but since I was just a temporary guest I don't think I can call that living together. I would consider that as my vacation to his house and I'll list it as such. You have to...

    work experince for ainp

    If I'm correct, that's a provincial nomination programme, no? I would recommend this board instead: http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/provincial-nomination-program-immigration-b6.0/ They will probably have more information for you. This section is for general family...

    upfront medicals

    While that should be good advice, I've learned it can actually just slow you down. I called the DMP for our country - there's only one in the country, so I don't get to choose which one to go to - and they told me that I should wait until AFTER I submit my application to take the medical. They...

    Certified (Notarized) Documents

    Hmmm. Who qualifies as a certified translator? We have plenty of court appointed translators out here, but I've found nothing on certified translators >_> The only paper I believe I need translated is the police clearance. I'm sending the original as well, of course, but since it's in Slovene...

    Certified (Notarized) Documents

    I just want to double check something... When they say certified/notarized, does that have to be done in Canada or can it be done abroad? I'll be applying from Slovenia, I need to get a document translated. I just want to know if it's ok if I get it translated here and have a translator from...

    medical exma; before or after applying ?

    Actually, I've done further research... and it seems it depends on who is immigrating. Check this out: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/pdf/kits/guides/3901e.pdf Also region specific, it applies to the area that Vienna covers. If a spouse is being sponsored, then the medical is taken before...

    medical exma; before or after applying ?

    Hello, I'm hoping somebody can confirm this for me. I don't need any papers from the Visa office before going for the medical, correct? I'm starting to lose my wits. I'm from Slovenia, my husband's in Canada. I'm trying to get my medical, but I can't convince the DMP's office that all I have...
