Hi I have a question regarding the difference between a visitor permit and a visitor visa. Back in February I applied to extend my stay here in Canada and after a 4 month wait i finally was approved and received a temporary visitor permit and was told i had till November to stay. I recently...

Should I be expecting the full 12 months??

Thank you for this information it makes me feel way better about this. It was just getting to me seeing everyone else who applied in July getting updates. This whole process has been such a test of patience ugh!

Hi guys so im a july applicant and I seem to be stuck in the process (like everyone is of course). I have uploaded Sched A, PCC, and my medical passed and got the email saying my app will be processed in Mississauga. That was October 10. My ECAS has not changed to "in process" and my GCkey hasnt...

So I've noticed that a lot of people have received AOR2 already (mainly around Oct 10 I've noticed) but I have yet to have gotten it. My ECAS still just says "received" and not "started to process." My GCKEY still says "we will send you a message when we start your background check." Im getting...

I'm in the same predicament. It seems weird they request medical before they do SA approval cuz like if its denied you just wasted lots of money

Does anyone know the date format that CIC uses. I got my Schedule A and PCC request letter and its saying its due by 2017/10/09. Is that October 9th or September 10th? Sorry this is a bit of a dumb question lol

According to the message I got from CIC: At this time, you need to provide a police certificate for: 1) The country where you currently live, if you have lived there for six months or more; 2) The country where you have spent most of your adult life since the age of 18. And I have been in...

So linked my account today and then got a message requesting schedule A and police certificates and I'm a bit confused about getting a canadian police certificate. I called my local RCMP office to get some info about obtaining one and they are telling me that I do not need to get a set of...

Alright so I'm putting a permanent residence app in thru common law sponsorship and I have a few questions regarding the police certificates. 1. I'm a United States citizen but I'm living here in Canada so I cant go down to the states to get a set of fingerprints. To obtain fingerprints could I...

Thank you for the information!

Hey so I'm getting my common law PR outland app together and i had a few questions on some of the forms On IM 0008: 1. It asks on question 4 of the education/occupation section what my "intended occupation" is and I'm not sure how to answer because I have no idea what it will be. I plan to...

You think it would be that quick? The processing times say 12 months for both outland and inland applications. How likely do you think it would be for me to be denied re-entry if I left for a week or so and came back? Given that i was granted a visitor extension thru November

Okay so you're saying I would not have implied status based on my PR app if I applied outland, but could still rely on my visitor status and just apply for another extension come November? And they would most likely approve another visitor extension if I had a pending outland PR app? If I...

So I'm American and I'm being sponsored for PR by my GF thru common law and I have a few questions. 1. We needed an extra month or so to reach the 12 month mark of living together so we applied for a visitor extension and were just approved thru November. Are we able to put in a PR app right...

Okay thats really good to know. They said to us that it was dismissed and thats the term they used but i guess if we were given community service. When i declare it do i need to have some sort of proof or will it pop up in their criminal check? I have definitely lost my documentation of the...

Ya i think you might be right. Its just annoying worrying about it. Id love for it to just not have to come up. Especially cuz it was the dumbest most petty of offenses and the charges were dismissed.

CLose to 5 years ago in the US me and my friend got pulled over and we had some marijuana on us and the cops found it. We were charged with a petty misdemeanor and the judge dismissed the charges and we had to do community service. Im working on common law requirements with my canadian GF in...

We are gonna use my GF's bank statements to provide proof of financial support. And also get a letter from my parents explaining they would support me in emergencies. Do we need to provide multiple bank statements or just one showing total amount??
