I guess I missed the 3 month expiration date. I received mine in late June and was planning on sending my app in early October. Now I have to do it again? What a bummer.

My divorce took 17 months so I feel your pain. We filed married separately during that time (two tax years). In doing so he lost out on a $2,000 education credit (his choice) but it was worth paying taxes to not deal with each other. I would file separately.

I totally understand your feelings of just wanting it to be the two of you. Here's our story on why ours was just the two of us. We just got married a few weeks ago and it was just the two of us but we have what I consider good reason. While we were in the early stages of planning our wedding...

Blondie, it means that 80% of the 744 applications were processed in 16 months.

Hi! My understanding is all he needs to show is proof of ties in the US. This could be a lease agreement, bills in his name, a letter from his employer stating it's a 3 month vacation, proof that he paid for university that starts in the fall, etc. I don't think bank statements matter, I just...

It asks for the value in Canadian Dollars. Is this what the value of the product is now or when it was new? For example, I bought a shirt for $30US, but if I sold it now I could get maybe $3 for it. Another example, paid $900 for my sofa, value if I sold it on Craigslist I could get maybe...

My timeline was the same as Kelm's :)

I plan to submit my application for PR in September and would like to come to Canada to visit my husband at the beginning of October. I'd also like to take a trip mid-October to England to visit a friend. I wanted to fly out of / into Toronto for the England visit since I will be visiting my...

Hi guys! I'm putting together our genuine relationship evidence. As of right now I have the photos organized this way: On PDFs (will be printed in color) Timeframe of trip (example: January 23-30, 2011) Where photos were taken (example: Venice, Italy) Highlights: (example: Won trip to Venice...

Thank you all. I think we have a strong case of evidence to show our relationship is genuine: - 24 visits to see each other in last 19 months (airfare from $500-$850 a trip shows the large financial investment we've made in the relationship) - We will have letters from: my parents, his parents...

My Canadian fiancé and I (American) met at a work function while I was going through a tough time in my previous marriage. The next month my ex and I separated (I moved across the country), during that time my fiancé and I emailed and chatted (as friends, mostly about my separation but it was...

Occasita is right, I am going to apply outland and visit my husband for 6 months, when that is up, if I do not have PR then I will apply for an extension. From what I've read on the forum it's a fairly easy process.

Seems a lot of us are on the same timeline. My request was received on May 29th and they charged my credit card on June 18th.

Congratulations on your upcoming nuptials and good luck! This is a great place for information and support. :)

Good luck!

That's a great idea!! I travel there at least once a month, sometimes twice. If I was going for a week or so I would definitely try that, but I typically go Friday night - Sunday evening which gives us 42 hours of time together. there aren't any nonstop flights to Buffalo from here, plus I...

Sure, you can call me that! I feel you on the flights! From Houston to Toronto it's usually $725, a year ago it was $505!! I try and get weekend deals through United for $404 (and we act like this is a deal!!) but our time is so limited because I don't get in until Sat afternoon and fly out...

You just answered my car question :)

As OhCanadiana said, usually round trip tickets are cheaper than one way. If I were you I'd purchase a round ticket because it looks like you do have intent to come back to the US. I plan to drive in (from Houston to Ontario) with my husband and show a copy of my lease at my brother's house...

Hi Cheerio, I printed the fingerprint form off the FBI website on card stock and went to my local police department to get printed (cost $10). I sent in two cards just in case. I would use the FBI's form because you know they won't deny it.
