    >:( Oh, I feel so mad on your behalf! I agree, unacceptable. We just paid for trackable/signature confirmation for our application with Canada Post and it cost $30 - for that price they need to get it right!

    Are we who are applying to CPP-O being tracked in the Buffalo spreadsheet? If so, it doesn't look like any PR decisions have been made in the CPP-O office yet...is that right?

    Dh and I have been killing ourselves laughing, spending our day searching through the 95,000 Skype instant messages :o to find extracts for Immigration Officer consumption. It's not x-rated but we both have quirky senses of humour so a lot of it just doesn't come across quite right ::). Sending...

    Dh transferred most of his savings to a Canadian bank account. Is there any down side to his showing a Canadian bank account balance as part of the documentation of his financial plan to support himself, even though he is in Canada on visiting/temporary resident status? My income is pretty low...

    For online fee payment (processing fees + Right of Permanent Residence Fee), there's a page that says: In our case, is it Mississauga or CPPO? Is there any down side to paying the fees a couple of weeks before submitting the application?

    I think that Ottawa is the office that processes the US outland applications now.

    Lindissa, have you read the Guide 3900? If not, you will need to become familiar with it in order to fill out the application. http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/guides/3900ETOC.asp#pay-fee $550 + an extra $490 if you want to pay the Right of Permanent Residence Fee in...

    Spousal sponsorship

    I'm hoping for some help from those who have visited in Canada while doing outland sponsorship process application. I'm getting concerned about extending dh's visitor status. I'm assuming he can apply online from inside Canada but I just read the following: And for the processing times I see...

    Married in America, wanting to move to Canada

    Thanks for your reply Leon! I am nervous about dh leaving the country unnecessarily because of how they questioned him about his intention to return to the US the first time, but perhaps the marriage certificate and submitted spousal sponsorship application would make a difference this time. We...

    The checklist (google IMM5491E) indicates that the police clearances (original docs) are required to be submitted with the application (#26). I would not assume that docs sent later would get properly joined to your file, unless they specifically request them.

    Go August applicants! I'm hoping to be joining the club. We are still working on the relationship proof section, and I'm waiting to receive an old divorce certificate and my option C printout. It feels pretty overwhelming!

    Married in America, wanting to move to Canada

    I am kicking myself that we did not know to do this. My American husband entered Canada by car in April but he got no passport stamp or anything, even though he was questioned as to his intention to return to the US. Any ideas of how we can prove when he entered Canada? Member OhCanadiana...
