To CIC, they are both clients. One is a sponsor, the other one is being sponsored. No need to get upset - I'm giving my opinion. I just sponsored my spouse and we were each given separate UCIs. So let's not give blanket statements as it might affect someone's application.

Maybe you got confused by calling it extension of visa. When it's actually extension of "stay". An expired visa doesn't get extended. You'll have to apply for a new one to gain entry to Canada. http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/helpcentre/answer.asp?q=527&t=15

ahaha..How quickly this turned into a Canada bash thread. Consular services are always a pain in the neck, some more than the others. I am sorry you had to go thru such pain. However, you should never make any plans before you are assured that you have proper documentation to even enter that...

wrong thread

I stand corrected - This is fantastic news!

2. Not true - UCI (Unique Client Identifier) by definition is unique to the client. Your husband and yourself will have two separate client numbers since you are two unique clients. There would be ONE file/application # but two separate UCIs. It was the case in my sponsorship application

You are right - She could be eligible since she is a family member of someone whose application for permanent residence has been approved (assuming it is in one of those classes). That's interesting though. Coz my spouse who is here on a TRV can't get an OWP because I am a Canadian citizen and...

The answer is No. Being denied admission is not the same as being denied a visa. Denied admission is when you have a visa and you show up at the border and, for some reason, you are not allowed to enter the country. There could be many reasons for that. The border office doesn't believe that you...

No-one can tell you what the chances are since we've seen a lot of people getting denied despite having strong ties to their home country and vice versa. I applied for the PR by the end of May this year and got first stage approval by Mid June. Fill out the application showing ample ties to...

Send an email to the consulate if that's all the information you've gotten from them. Ask for exactly what they need. Visa applicants are strongly advised against making reservations before a visa is approved.

I'll wait for the first stage approval. File # is a good reference. First stage is relatively quick. Mine came in 3 weeks and I applied for TRV about two weeks after that.

First, many congratulations. The question is confusing. Proof of citizenship of what? Canada? If she was born in Pakistan, you will have to sponsor her just like you are sponsoring your spouse. She does not automatically become a Canadian citizen.

Her spouse is a Permanent Resident - She cannot get an OWP. http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/helpcentre/answer.asp?q=177&t=17

WARNING Regarding SAUDI AIRLINES Just read a few comments about airlines so I thought I'll add my two cents - I know the fare is cheap and enticing - but make sure your layover in Saudi is not more than 12 hours. YOU WILL NOT BE ALLOWED TO TRAVEL. I just booked a trip from New York to Lahore via...

It shouldn't be a problem. If asked you can explain the situation to the border officer. My wife came on a TRV without a return ticket. She wasn't asked at all about her return plans. It all depends on the border officer you come across. Just tell them your situation truthfully and you'll be fine.

If you applied online, it'll be thru email. Don't know about paper application

Isn't Temporary PR is an oxymoron?

Just sign it, scan it and email it to her - It's pretty straightforward.

Yes you absolutely cannot stay beyond the 6 months. You can, however, apply for an extension online. It's recommended you do that 1 month prior to your status expiry which would be Nov 1st in your case

Confused - what good news? He said CHC told him the visa is approved
