As you are not living together now with your partner, the time you lived together prior to her leaving will not count towards common-law (and it would be easy for CIC to check when she left, as she departed Canada) so you will need to re-start from 0 and live together 12 months (uninterrupted)...

Reconciliation is indeed a hard thing, but not impossible, if the 2 people can come to some understanding. I believe that even the best men and women make mistakes and there is room for forgiveness. I cannot judge the OP or the spouse, as we do not know the exact problems they are going...

I would tend to agree with Rob_TO. I think what the OP needs more is to find a support system, and unless the spouse is being abbusive, try her best to try and reconcile. It is funny how a sponsor does everything in their power to prove to immigration that their spouse is coming here for a...

I am sorry for what you are going through. To determine his PR status (conditional or not) check the CORP document from when he landed and see if the CORP is conditional (Condition #51). If it is conditional, you can report him to immigration, however as he does not want to leave your home...

I don't mean to worry you, but because of your visa office you may face a challange with not having a traditional wedding. I know it is CIC nonesene, because not everyone has to marry a certian way for it to be real. Just please prepare as much as you can, photos, communication, letters, write...

Scylla is absolutely correct. I have reviewed many cases on canlii where appeals were lost due to adoption of convenience (just like marriage of convenience). And unfortunately the OPs reasoning (ie his child being lonely) is not a good reason for CIC to adopt and sponsor.

Don't know who the consultant is but take Alurra's advice and stay away from him/her LOL Seriously!!! I just searched to find information about a Minister's Permit and this is what I found "The Minister's Permit does not exist since the implementation of the new laws and regulations in June of...

I think they are asking the wife if she will move to Canada (she is the sponsor). I am assuming that she applied while outside Canada therefore must prove that will be relocating back to Canada once a PR is granted to her husband.

did either you or your wife became PR after your daughter was born?

it is one of the forms for spousal sponsorship. http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/pdf/kits/forms/IMM5490E.pdf

i ignore those comments, because their comments have no merit. I don't get offended. In the end they will be judged by our creator. trust me when i tell you i get asked all time at work now if and when canada puts ban on hijab in workplace if i will take it off, of course i would not, i'd...

http://www.torontosun.com/2012/07/26/immigration-officers-tough-it-out-in-pakistan I know it will take long time for my spouse, but hamdulillah anyways. Allah is with us and will see us through this ordeal.

i dont mean disrespect, so please do not judge me as this is not your right, but i know what i am talking about. I am just saying that Canada is not blind to the fact that pakistan is the world leader in the visa fraud business , documents that are given for visa applications contain **spam**...

There is no backlog at the visa office. unfortunately what takes long in Pakistan is not the fact that there are too many application and not enough staff, for example in 2012 Islamabad received only 1311 spousal sponsorship applications while New Delhi in that same period received 5,388 spousal...

Very bad idea, as your application would be incomplete and may be returned to you, delaying things. You must include your marriage certificate.

I think you may be right, although I read on this forum that some members added their spouse to their work benefits before the spouse was a PR. Rob_TO I think posted something to that effect a while back. Based on my experience and logic I think that even if some people added their non...

What you suggest is only possible if the OP is a Canadian Citizen. If he is a PR the baby needs to be sponsored, therefore added to his wife's application. If the OP is a PR and does not add the baby he will forever be barred from ever sponsoring the child (baby) into Canada and the baby...

To be honest I don't really know if Sunlife would accept this or not. I think in each situation it is best to call the insurer to find out if that's possible.

from country specific checklist of documents that have to be included when applying. But Im sure that again like in many cases CIC is not clear wherein in both checklists (main and country specific checklists) CIC asks to include an original receipt of the medical and in their actual procedural...

It doesnt really matter now which VO is handling the app. for all outland applications everyone is required to the the medical upfront and submit receipt with the initial application package, even in case where processing is listed longer than 12 months (meaning medical will expire before a...
