You have the full right to tell the truth to the officer that your current plan is just a few weeks of vacation time, but "plans" change right ? ;D Your husband is allowed to stay in Canada up for up to 6 months, then he has to extend his stay which is a piece of cake. We had no issues, and were...

Sorry, you are not a US citizen if you have a green card and you can not have a US passport with the green card.

Makes sense I guess :D

We have asked for one year and provided multiple documentation that she can support herself(bank accounts etc) and our marriage certificate. Extension went very smooth, it can all be uploaded online, you don't even have to mail anything. Just make sure you are not out of status when you apply...

Just wondering, if he is a US citizen why that denial letter refers to a Refugee Protection act?

I wanted to share our experience and a brief timeline of my US wife becoming a PR: June 2014 - Enters Canada as a visitor (US passport allows 6 month stay) August 2014 - We get married November 2014 - Medical checks are done, police checks are done (FBI took almost 4 months)...

Yep, she got it right there, although I heard not every airport does this.

I think CIC only views hidden relationships as a possibility of fake marriage attempt. It does not matter if you are gay or not, what religion you belong to or what color is your skin etc. In their mind since you kept it hidden, you may have attempted a fraud, I am sure there will be questions.

just another update on our case: My wife has finally landed today in Toronto, it took less then 10 minutes with CBSA officer and she got the SIN number right away. They didn't even bother asking for her extended visitor stay visa SIN number is just a plain print out and COPR now has a stamp and...

Based on your story - No you can't sue CIC, everything looks legit. Good luck in Korea though, and thanks for showing your interest in Canada :)

Absolutely, we did exactly that and my wife has extended her visitor visa while waiting for PR. just wanted to add this as well: This actually works towards your advantage, because you are living with your spouse already, chances of fake marriage are way less possible in such situations.

yes, it is, notes tell you a lot http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/department/atip/requests-atip.asp

You probably got some batch email from them requesting the meds when there are dependents present. They do the same thing for criminal record checks even if you have sent them already. That's why it is a good idea to order your file notes for 5 bucks before going hysterical at CIC over the...

If I understand this correctly, your husband will require a visa regardless to enter Canada (if he is not from visa exempt country), the items you have listed is only support documentation.

Nice! Congrats! COPR will be in the mail soon (give it 2 weeks). Brown envelope with an ugly looking sticker and red Canada Post $1.65 stamp on it - haha!

Same here, I have tried to add my wife to my benefits from my work, and it was declined. As for health insurance, we just keep buying Bluecross while waiting for health card (takes about 3 months after you land).

Have you tried calling them to get an answer? It looks like they are processing your application already for PR: We received ***** 's application for permanent residence on June 17, 2015. We started processing ***** application on August 28, 2015. Medical results have been received. So...

That all happens after, SA is just sponsorship approval where they don't even look at the applicant yet.

it's all about legalizing weed, no one cares about anything else, just read online forums... This is the only reason Justin Bieber has won :-X

Sorry, a little bit to the side to the original OP message which is old - I know: This is what CIC office looks like after receiving tons of unnecessary documentation. They don't look for your organizational skills, resumes, unclaimed talents, hobbies or 500 pictures of pets you have owned...
