    travel without PR card

    My friend needed to show his COPR at the canada boarder to re-enter canada as PR, and he is from a visa exempt country (Belgium).

    If you are dating him from or before 2012, then send one chat of every week, every two weeks or every month (or important milestones in your relationship). And state in your application that you do so, and that if they want to see more, that you can provide that. They just want to see that your...

    Medical, where and when

    To avoid any possible delays you should do it up front. BUT you could wait to do it when they request it during your application, this could cause delays though! Like the person above said you can do it anywhere in the world as long the doctor is on the CIC lost.

    Entry prior to approval

    If you never needed a visa to enter Canada (because you a from the US and have a US passport), then no you don't need to apply for a tourist visa. You only need to apply for a visa, if you always needed a visa to enter Canada, your application does not influence this, it's still the same as you...

    Entry prior to approval

    You application doesn't influence this, you can enter as long you can prove you won't overstay and return home at the end of your visa (like you normally have to when you visit Canada). Being married to a Canadian citizen might make it a little harder though (since you have more reasons to not...

    Marrying a Canadian and I'm on a Study Permit. Minimum income requirement.

    You're welcome! ^^ Just so you know (in case you get a interview or anything else) re-entering Canada without a student visa after you send your application and before getting PR can be a lot harder. They are more strict on giving an visitor visa (if you are from a not visa exempt country)...

    Marrying a Canadian and I'm on a Study Permit. Minimum income requirement.

    As long you have a valid visa you can stay in canada during the process. The outland application however does not give you a visa, so as long your study permit for Canada is still valid (or any other visa) you can stay in canada. If not or if it expires before the decision is made, then you have...

    Speaking notes for John McCallum - June 14th

    Yea i'm worried about that too, but they did say they increased the cap, so there was a cap this whole time then right..? But CIC states that the cap raise is for the backlog, and that "new" applications aren't included in the backlog changes. So maybe it means they raised the cap on backlogs...

    You haven't made the trip but you did in fact got denied entrance at the isreal border before you send you application? If it was before you send the application that still counts I think.. You should have said "yes" to the question then. The 3 days vs 1 night shouldn't be a huge issue. If you...

    Speaking notes for John McCallum - June 14th

    Well clearly one of the two pages have their numbers mixed up, or maybe they changed it again and he wasn't informed about it or the other way around. Or maybe it's a misstype, at least the number isn't wayyyyyy off haha. :P So I always wondered if they reach their cap, will they ignore or...
