haha i'm here too but i don't really qualify YET (we'll submit our app in may). i'll probably nag you awesome forum people with way too many questions when the time comes ;D good luck to all of you!! and congrats again Betina! your process went fast :D i hope it will be the same for all of us here.

OOO congrats!! i bet you feel amazing! I'm happy for you ;D

yeah i definitely saw that some have no idea what they're doing, but it's never too late to clear everything up! :D i never even submitted my application so i don't really fall in that category i'm afraid. will do so though. i hope i'll submit a full application that will satisfy CIC. @...

@ Graihn i'm the one that mistakenly said COPR is conditional PR. i saw someone around here saying that so i assumed it was right. i'm sorry that i upset you with my confusion, we're all humans and we make mistakes, i should've looked more into it. I'm a newbie with all these stuff and you can...

Yay! i hope it will work! thanks for the answers :)

@ screech339 well that's good news! well i did travel but never out of the European Union - and here no passport is needed for crossing the border so i'm not sure how this helps (we only need to show our ID card): Germany, Italy, France, Hungary, Austria.. and yeah you're right, i wish i had...

really?! :o won't they suspect anything or i hope i don't have the risk of getting refused at the border.. ? so it will be fine with the PR application afterwards. i'm a bit of a paranoid with this whole Canada issue :P thanks a lot for your reply! :)

if it's after 25th of october then it's clear that condition no. 51 applies to you.. i'm so sorry for the confusion! i'm not such an expert with these stuff, still in the learning process :( @zardoz thank you for clearing it up.

sorry, it's 25 october 2012. read more about it here: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/department/media/backgrounders/2012/2012-10-26a.asp

from my knowledge COPR does not mean 'confirmation of permanent residence'.. it means it's a CONDITIONAL PR. so you need to remember when have you sent your application to Mississauga, Ontario? if it's BEFORE november 2012, then the conditional PR (living with your spouse for 2 years) doesn't...

this conditional PR is only effective for applications sent in since November 2012.. sounds like you sent your app earlier so you don't need to live 2 years with your spouse to still have PR. technically you're still a PR. i don't think it's her right to keep your PR card though, why did you let...

how does this scenario sound to you? ??? getting a TRV before actually getting married... i would try do to that because the chances of receiving a TRV after marriage to a canadian are pretty small. so i would like to get the TRV, get married afterwards and in like 1 month or so send the...

you obviously need to renew it and afterwards notify CIC about it - send photocopies of your new passport. maybe more experienced users can help you more with that if it's something else to do :)

oh 6 months before applying, that's pretty early .. yeah unfortunately TB is still an issue in our country :( well it doesn't matter too much anymore, you're almost done with everything and you can start dealing with other issues as a PR! (sorry this doesn't seem very encouraging :D)

do you mean something in particular? any tips tailored to Romania that i could use? ;D when i've decided to cross the ocean permanently to be with my guy, i got paranoid and vandalised the internet in search of anything helpful :D. this forum is awesome, people are so nice!

oooh got it! thanks again Bettina :D i swear to you this forum is the holy grail of immigration applications

in my personal opinion i don't think that will be an issue.. but maybe more experienced users can give you more insight on that. :) good luck to you!

Hey everyone :) i'm curious what have you done with the police certificates - you know ours expire in 3 months after they've been issued.. is it ok to send them with the application to Mississauga or wait until they are requested later?

yeah i`ll have his mom write a letter, and i have loads of convos to show CIC haha ,we babble a lot - she also sent me a Christmas gift even if she never saw me (i guess the canadian stereotype of being excessively nice applies to all of the canadians i know :P) she also asked me to film the...

i would also like to ask something regarding this subject. i have some red flags too, apparently. are my explanations valid? 1. i'll marry in march: i won't have a religious ceremony (close relative died in less than a year ago - not society-acceptable to do a religious wedding in less than 1...
