Why are you surprised ::) We are visa exempt country so baby is eligible to enter Canada on UK passport for 6 months at a time anyway??

Hi zardoz Thx for the reply. How long does it take to apply for PR? Do u think TRV will be refused? Hoping citizenship won't take years :o if straight forward & no RQ fingers crossed

Hi all I would like some advise (or leon's expert opinion) on extending canadian TRV for baby born in UK. Parents are Canadian PRs & UK citizens but have applied for dual citizen which is in process. Baby is currently in UK & TRV runs out in March 2014 but we don't know if should try extend...

Hi All! I hadn't checked my ECAS for a while but I think I misspelt & there was a typo error why i had no access, but now can view! :D It says in process & received application, sent AOR & booklet 9 sept (pls can you update date) Started processing application 9 Nov. so I am going to start...

Hi all! I have sent application on 4 sept by recorded delivery Was tracked & received 9 sept. Got letter dated 11 Nov with book & client ID/receipt number. (Presume that AOR) I tried since one week ago to access ECAS but no luck so probably not started processing yet :( What happens next? Can...

Hi I would come clean with all the events even if you were working & say your record is clear. CIC has a way of finding out regardless & as you mentioned it can be classed as misrepresentatiin which is more serious hiding than being upfront. At the end of the day its their decision but wish you...

So your advice to her is STAY extend baby's TRV or apply for PR then Go court get custody rights (whilst filing for divorce) then go UK I was concerned if baby can overstay or if either of them can afford to file for custody, divorce etc even if entitled to legal aid & how long do they have to...

Just as I thought but what happens to the baby overstaying TRV isn't that illegal & serious offence too? Due to the separation none of them have taken any action to renew TRV or apply for PR! She wants the easiest option & go UK but there will be consequences!

Scylla Thanks but dont think its as easy as that. Can she take a chance leave Canada & return to UK (without fathers consent) although baby has no OHIP & TRV soon to expire? My main question is if he goes court to say he NEVER consented AFTER they have left does she have to return even if baby...

Hi zardoz No he isn't he has PR too like wife. Do you have any advice? It is a complex situation

Hi My apologies. The numbering are questions I'd like to ask NOT statements. By "in her favour" I'm asking if she does return UK can these questions be an advantage to HER. In summarising if he goes to court for them to return & apply for divorce will it affect her citizenship application? Thanks!

Hi I recently posted re my citizenship application & found everyone helpful so now I have few questions for a friend: She is married & met PR (730 days) she has applied for citizenship met (1,095 days) but her baby (nearly 1yr old) was born in UK (personal preference as most her family are...

Leon i like the way you said this: "Well, there are the rules and then there is everything that is possible around the rules which is another story".... I totally agree there will always be someone who slightly bends the rules to suit their situation (as long as its not illegal & harming...

I'm glad you responded as you clarified the exact points I was trying to decide. I read someone was in a similar situation but I guess every case is treated differently. I understand them asking for school recs to enable whether parents have met the requirements but as explained i have it's...

What i don't understand is why CIC asks for children's' school records for past 3-4 years if I am the main applicant & they don't have to meet the residence requirement. Shouldn't they make an assessment solely on my activities for the past 4 years? Also (dont know if this is a silly question)...

Hi Thanks for your reply that's what I wanted to know. As I am the main applicant hoped I would be able to apply for citizen for all children but unsure due to my 17 year old not meeting the residence requirement.

Hi As stated I am qualified (& other children) from 2009 to present, we could have applied end of last year, but I am enquiring particularly about my eldest?

Hi Ive been reading but 1st time posting on this thread. Notice Leon seems to be the expert here but I'm open to ALL :D My children & I landed PR May 2009 since then we have travelled (various times) but I still managed to meet the residence requirements (2yrs PR & 3 yrs,1095 days out of 5 yrs)...
