Your best bet is to apply outland as this process is faster than applying inland. Outland apps are processing at approximately 6 months or so while inland is running about 11-15 months (longer in some cases depending on the situation). Also once approved he can work here the second he gets here...

Your Lawyer advised you not to link because your Lawyer will link to THEIR account. Hiring a lawyer is same as appointing a representative so they need to know if CIC is requesting or advising anything. If you try and link your account too will screw it all up.

A visitor visa is not necessary. He will have implied status as he had a legal status when you applied. He can even continue working while your new OWP is processing.

A friend of mine was in this situation and was advised to apply for a TRP (Temporary resident permit) + an OWP with their PR application. They did this and he was granted the TRP and OWP so he was here legally and able to work while the app processed. Keep in mind this is when apps were taking 2...

Please help! I am at the form for Additional family info and there is confusing instructions. There is a space for his Mother and Father (who are not coming it is just my husband) so ok we fill that out, and one of the sibling spaces for his brother but then on the checklist it says anyone over...

Awesome thanks to both of you :-)

Your timeline pretty much seems like the whole process! Is all that is left at this point is you are waiting for DM? I used to have this all down pat but so much has changed....

I apologize if this has been asked and answered...boy there are a lot of posts on here! I found on the CIC website this item: "You must include all your family members even if they are not coming to Canada with you. This includes: spouse or partner dependent children dependent children of...

Depends who you get at CRA I think. I claim my hubby and they only ever asked for a copy of our marriage certificate. That's it.

My hubby is currently out of status and we are about to send in his App. I claim him on my taxes. My accountant advised me it would not matter where in the world he lived I would still claim him as he has no income. Get a decent tax return for that too. He has no SIN number. The accountant just...

No...I have just realized I am an idiot and was referring to the wrong thing. It should have said a TRP (Temporary resident permit)...not a TRV. Gah it's Monday lol.

Weird. My friend and her hubby were told to do it and he got one approved for 2 years which allowed time to process his app. We will apply without one and just send in the OWP and App and see how it goes :-) Thanks so much :-)

Good to know on the OWP but on the TRV we HAVE to apply for that. You do not get implied status with your PR application if you are out of status. My friend's Hubby was 7 years overstay and he was told by immigration to get a TRV. And nope you are right...no leaving Canada lol.

So happy to see this thread!! My hubby and I are likely the worst on here at this point. I will not bore you with the seemingly endless issues that have plagued us over the years (most financial but some not) but My Hubby is out of status 9 years this year. We are applying for Inland PR this...

A friend of mine who has been through this process recently advised along with the app and OWP app they also applied for a TRP (Temporary residency permit) to give him his "legal" status back. That and the OWP was approved so he could work while waiting. They did this on the advice of Immigration.

Question 1 - I would advise you are living together and leave it at that. If they want info on visits when they see they recent date of cohabitation they will ask. Question 2 - I would fill it out that you have worked there for 3 years but attach a note advising of the seasonal nature of the job.

Yes he can claim you but he must also mention any 2016 income you had. You will have to fill out a World Income form (sorry do not know the form number)

Hello everyone!! I am a Canadian citizen and my Hubby is American. We are just finishing up filling out the forms etc and are hoping to send the application in within the next few months. Short background: Hubby has been here for almost 8 years (out of status...I know, :o I know), we have been...

I have already checked with the Circuit Court and they advised there is no Warrant for his arrest (apparently they don't do that, they just send it to their collection department and tack 30% on it). As for the TRP I know someone that I met through these forums that is going through almost the...

Thank you! A friend I met on here went through something similar (still is) and yeah she said he has now been here 4 years on TRP/OWP that they keep renewing (currently applying for 4th renewal). His was a lesser charge however and was obtained here in Canada. So at this point if I have...
