As far as the technicalities go, everything seems fine to me. Make sure the info is clear about how your parents are providing support, as CIC will need to ensure that you have the means to support your husband here. Given that you don't have a dependent child it makes the jobless thing slightly...

You get a receipt when you submit the payment. Again it's been a while for me and my wife and I'm not sure what else has changed but I think beyond that we didn't really hear from them again until we got the new VR in the mail.

You can do it all online if you have access to a scanner. The process has changed a bit from when I had to do it (repeatedly) but in all honesty it's not too bad. Just go to the CIC site and follow the Visit link, and you will find the link to Extend Your Stay As A Visitor. It will guide you to...

You will need to apply for an extension on the VR with the CIC. If you have not done so, then after September 18 your wife will be staying here illegally. A Visitor Record is not a visa, which your wife indeed does not require to ENTER the country; however, to STAY here she must comply with the...

It will be signed/stamped wherever you land. If it's an airport, it will be there. If you are coming in from the U.S. By land, it will be done wherever you cross.

The COPR is enough. It's a legal document. The PR card is just a nice compact version of that document.

Yeah, I was having brain cramps and was completely overlooking the fact that he was on the cusp of being a non-dependent, which would render it moot anyways. I would trust Rob_TO's judgment here.

The 22 year old does not need to be listed as a dependent. The 18-year old should still be listed as a dependent, even if they are in full custody of the other parent. This is simply to maintain a truthful application. It is recommended to also have him examined; however, not doing so will not...

Hi again, I think you might be looking at the section that deals with dependents of the applicant. Are you filling it out electronically? If so, there's a button you can press to remove the dependent from the application, and it will make the IMM 008 shorter :)

Hey CJD181, As said, just keep posting your questions to this thread. Since my situation sounds very similar to yours (Canadian, American wife) I'll keep checking back on it and offer any advice I can, though more learned people have already done so. And, to reinforce what has been stated, for...

You will need that birth certificate, as well as a marriage certificate. If either of these are written in Japanese only, you may also need to provide notarized translations.

Congratulations :)

Did you even read the site?

Hello November applicants! Sorry I've been away so long...hopefully everyone is well and proceeding along with their PR applications nicely. Please send me a PM if I'm missing any tracking info on the spreadsheet (which I'm sure I am). Thanks! -Ruben (DuberBlue)

Hello all! So sorry I've been slack on the forums lately. Been so busy around here with house moves and stuff. I've just updated the spreadsheet with the info people have PM'd me with. If I'm missing anything important please let me know! -Duberblue

Congratulations NicAnn :) You deserve it :)

Woo hoo!!

Just so you understand canuckistaner, the spreadsheet I maintain is only based on info people in this forum have volunteered to give me. I am not an employee of CIC or affiliated with them in any way. Trewmenn has already stated the proper thing to do...I hope you have some luck with that. Thanks!

Hey everyone :) Sorry to everyone who's sent me updates for my lateness in getting back to you all. I'm going to start processing all these now.. :)

Tell them what you told us :) That you only have a suitcase of clothing to follow....they will likely not care and you won't have to worry about filling out the form. They only want to know if you have valuable goods coming in with you....expensive jewelry, lots of currency, fancy electronics...
