Hello, 1) It is a legitimate reason for not being able to live together 2) No 3)No 4)You don't have to own a place 5)There is no minimal income requirements in the spousal/common law/conjugal partner class 6) It will not help the case (only if you live together for 1 year, then you are...

Damn, I thought I had a straight forward relationship ... but I guess I don't =))

Hi, regarding cash. Every year when I go home, I bring 10 000 USD with me (not CAD!), which is more than 10 000 CAD and I never had a problem =)). So you can bring 10 000 in USD, they don't care and more money/ less card transaction fees for you. Note: I always honestly tell them that I have 10...

It is absolutely acceptable. As long as you have a notarized translation it is all good. Cheers, Raccoon

But that would've been sweet ! Sucks it is not actually true =(

Aren't they speeding up the process for Haitians? I am pretty sure they are doing it right now. You should probably call CIC to confirm that they in fact are speeding up the process, but again I am pretty sure. Cheers, Raccoon

It is absolutely OK, she just should make sure that when she applies for the PR card she writes the address where you'll be residing at that time =). Another thing is that she has to have the PR card to come back to Canada (if she is not from the visa exempt country), but you said 3 months, so...

It largely depends, but when I was still following it , they were updating it roughly once a week.

Hello there, you you need the Guide (book). It can be found on CIC website. Just follow the steppes there to get to the appropriate Immigration option - Family class, Spouse and Common Law partners. The guide is comprehensive and will answer all of your questions. Plus it takes 6 seconds to...

Well Vagerville office processing times are not accurate, at all .... =))

This is a breeze compared to what we all have to go through, the hardest part is over for you YEY!!! Congratulations! and let us know how will it go. Cheers, Raccoon

Hey guys, don't trust the processing times. I submitted my application in June and when finally they were"processing June bla" my application was not processed, instead it was sent to the local CIC office a week before (without being processed). So, may be for some outland offices it is a good...

Hey, you can get married anywhere you want =)) even on a cruise ship. and you will be able to sponsor your girlfriend afterward, however you should check why she was denied the visitor visa to Canada, so you can write a cover letter for your application explaining all that. The processing time...

One part of my brain definitely understands that Haitians need it more than I do.... or probably more than any of us need it .... but my other part is so upset ....

hey, totally understand you feelings, we also don't want to get married just for PR =)) it is quite disturbing to say the least. Get the letters other people indicated above (from your parents and friends... as many as you can get). Send some more pictures, we also sent invitations we got to our...

Hey, in my understanding, you applied Inland, so that's why you don't have a visa in you passport, so you are absolutely OK =)). You did it yey!!! The interview is pretty simple, they will ask you easy questions to confirm you are you (like date/place of birth etc) then they will ask you if you...

No I meant med school application, I applied this year just because =)) I thought I will get my PR by January, but it never happened, so the admissions guys were nice enough to wait for my papers till March ... so now I have to withdraw my application from med school. That's what I meant ...

Hello guys, today I logged on to ecas with my partners client ID (he sponsors me as a common law spouse). Number one, apparently you can do it, took me 8 months to figure out haha Number two, they received his application on July 20th, 2009 and started processing only on January 20th, 2010 it...

Agreed =)) Plus I think, they should have some sort of the system that recognizes spousal credentials too. Meaning if you (as a spouse) have a Canadian education or any other education which is automatically recognized in Canada (like US or some European education) and just may be they should...

Yes you do need it
