My husband, British, went through this earlier this year. Just like Germany, Great Britain is amongst the countries for which you can get a licence exchange without proficiency examinations. Basically, all you have to do is book an appointment (as you are in Montreal like us, it will be at the...

Thank you for your quick reply! Really helpful!

Hi, My husband is a PR here in Canada. His father recently passed away in the UK and he has been left a watch. His family would like to post it to him (and insure it, of course), but we would like to know whether or not we will have to pay taxes/duties on it? My mom sent me a family heirloom...

Hi, My husband (UK citizen with a Canadian PR) and I (Canadian) have moved to Canada (Quebec). He has received his PR at the end of August 2014. We understand that since we have applied to settle in Quebec (family reasons), we are "forced" to remain in the province for 2 years from the date of...

Excellent news! Best of luck to you as well! Hope you'll enjoy your new life in my beautiful country!

Sorry for the delay in replying... But with the holidays and all... Have you heard anything yet? My husband received his PR last Tuesday! We're so excited! We crossed the USA/Canada border on Sunday in order to get his papers stamped. He will receive his PR card in 4-6 weeks, or so we were...

It's true that it appears very quiet! Well, hearing something in our case meant a further delay... Due to Government incompetency. We are really not impressed!

Hi! I just foudn this thread. I have posted a few times (in other threads), but this one is just perfect! I am Canadian and my husband is British. We applied outland on the 02nd of November 2013. Got my Canadian sponsorship approval in December 2013 and the Quebec one in February 2014. We...

Thank you! Are we supposed to send the original then?? I went to the post office yesterday and sent a copy... It really wasn't clear in the email he received: "Dear Applicant, In order to continue processing your application, we require the additional documents listed below. Please send clear...

Hi, In February 2014, my husband received his CSQ (Certificat de Sélection du Québec). I have of course been approved by both Canada and Quebec as his sponsor. Today, my husband received an email saying that they needed some extra documents in order to carry on with the processing of his...

We are having some problems with applying online. We keep being asked whether we have filled the questionnaire to find out whether we are eligible to apply. We have done it, but we didn't get a number. All we get is another section to fill in which they ask her for Client ID, which we don't...

Thank you! We are applying today... So fingers crossed!

Can anyone help with the questions I asked above regarding the extension of visitor visa for my British husband? We need to send that fairly soon, as the current "stamp" in his passport is only valid for another 6 weeks. Thanks!

So I assume that my confirmation letter of employment will do the trick? I started working a month ago.

Hi! No, we have received the CSQ about a month ago now. We are waiting for his PR. However, his "return" to the UK is planned for May, which we want to avoid. So we want to apply for an extension of his stay until he gets his PR. About this, we have a few question reharding the the...

Thank you! As I thought, it is probably easier and safer to apply online. Another application... ::) I have to say that I am really looking forward for this all to be over! ;)

Hello! We have now received the all-clear regarding me sponsoring my husband from both Canada and Quebec. Now we only have to wait... However, my husband is here only as a visitor (from the UK). We have return tickets for mid-May, but we obviously don't want to go. How do I go about that? Do...

Thank you! This is how I completed it as I thought it made more sense but it's nice to have someone else confirming it! I'm sending it again today! It's nice to be back home to Canada! I really missed it... And with all that snow, it makes it all the more magical! :)

Hi guys! We have, as planned, landed in Canada (Montreal) on the 03rd of December. Everything went smoothly with immigration at the airport regarding my husband being only on a tourist visa whilst waiting for his PR. We posted the PR application early November. On Thursday last week, I...

Application posted on Saturday! (At last!!) Thank you for all your help! I will keep you posted. :)
