Great. Thanks fprince! I think we'll get a police record check to make sure that nothing was recorded from it (since they are easy to get and cheap) and if there's not (which there shouldn't be) then he'll just check off "no" for this.

These are a list of yes or no questions the applicant must answer. One of the says: "Have you ever been detained or put in jail." One 2 occasions my future spouse was taken to the police station for an infraction with his moto (one time his head light was out another time for speeding). Many...

Sorry to jump in on your thread... I will have a similar situation based on difference in education, but it's the other way around. I will be the sponsor and have an undergraduate B.A Degree and a B.Ed degree from a Canadian university (total combined time of 5 years) and my future spouse who I...

Well, Depending on the visa office, they probably have hundreds, if not thouhsands of applicants to get through... and on top of that, I think the wait is partially to weed out those couples who aren't actually serious. If a couple is in a marriage of convenience and made the PR papers on a...

Yes, money needs to be deposited into the Canadian Embassy account at the Scotia bank in the Acropolis Centre. YES the money can be paid in cash. My boyfriend and I paid in cash (pesos) in October when we were paying th visitors visa fee. They will deposit it into the account for you and give u...

Yes, she can take cash. She can pay in pesos if she wants; they will use the exchange rate of the day. She won't need to take a taxi. My bf and I had zero idea of where the Acropolis Centre was when we were taking the Metro to SD. I had just been told from a coworker that it was walking...

Perhaps you can show online job searches you have performed for jobs YOU will be interested in?? Obviously you wouldn't be looking for a job in Canada if your husband wasn't returning to Canada. Just grasping at straws trying to think of what more will prove that he will be relocating to...

This incident occured in 2009. It was copied by this member from a different member in another forum and pasted into here. Also, at this time, Port-Au-Prince in Haiti was the visa office being used for Dominican visas to Canada. Post earthquake, it's all done in Santo Domingo. Not new. Don't...

I don't know if Immigration officers will call the sponsoring spouse after an interview, but perhaps it will also make you and your wife seem more united if she goes in and says something like, "My husband regrets that he is unable to be here for this interview, but is available at anytime...

On top of the possible interview questions written on that website, make sure your wife knows everything that you wrote on the application. Questions can be asked about ANYTHING that you wrote on the application, so ensure she is knowledgable about anything that you wrote for the sponsor's part...

I don't think, when you went to visit her on 2 separate occasions, for a week at a time (?) would be cohabitating. I would put this in section that will ask your wife "Has your sponsor ever come to visit you?" and within that question they give the instructions to write whether the applicant...

Kourts, After you were engaged did you have a small party? Maybe you went out to dinner with your parents or some friends to celebrate? Had a few people over for drinks to celebrate? I would think if you did something after in celebration of getting engaged you would put that here. Maybe say...

If she is registered for school that will begin in the next few months, definitely send the proof of registration. Her biggest problem will probably be showing ties to DR, that she will return at the end of her visit... so registration for uni is a good start.

CharlieD10, So I just want to clarify to be sure. I will be the sponsor... so, even though my passport only has my middle initial (J) written, on the sponsor information, I should write my complete middle name? Or since my passport says only my middle initial, on the sponsor information I...

He applied from Santo Domingo in Dominican Republic. Depending which country you're applying from, they can be very hard to come by. They are not easy to get in Dominican Republic, but if you don't try, then you definitely won't get it. It's worth a shot!

I'm just going by what my boyfriend's visitors visa said... It said it was issued on the day we applied for it, and it had an expiry date of exactly 6 months later, which was on the official visa. Maybe each embassy has a difference in their visitors visa, Im not sure. Sorry.

When my boyfriend applied for a visitors visa, we went to Santo Domingo. We left in the morning from Puerto Plata, were in Santo Domingo by 9:30am and submitted the papers. There will be no need for a hotel, if your friend does decide to go in person. The bus ride is about 3 1/2 hours, depending...

If you apply for a single entry temporary residence visa, they are usually valid for 6 months, from the day you submitted the application papers. Multiple entry visas can be valid for as long as the officer gives... usually anywhere from 1-5 years, however the individual can not stay in Canada...
