Hi all, Just an update: My prints were received by the FBI on Dec 3rd, 2014 My credit card was charged on Feb 27th, 2015 I just called the FBI and was informed that they are currently completing Nov 24th, 2014. Here's to hoping things move faster!

Hi all, Quick question: On the Kenya Outland form, it mentions something about getting a DNA blood test. Can someone explain what this means? I have only gotten the regular medical exam done that is required by CIC. Is this enough? Thanks!

I understand what you mean. Some of this stuff just goes over my head and it's so difficult to find the right answers. Could you recommend any accountant(s) from your experience? Thanks!

Is your wife a US citizen? The reason I ask is because I am in a similar situation, however, I am not a US citizen. My husband and I got married last year in Canada and we are currently in the midst of filing our paperwork. I work remotely for a US company but it is part-time and nowhere near...

Hi GustavesF, I am actually in a similar situation. My husband and I got married last year in Canada and we are currently in the midst of filing our paperwork. I work remotely for a US company but it is part-time and nowhere near enough to sustain me financially. Really, it's only to keep me...

Hi Gooh! Thanks so much for this information. Can you please elaborate what you mean by "Certified" photocopies?

Thanks for your feedback! I think I will go ahead and send my application in and then send the fingerprints when they arrive. The irony that the FBI have updated to a newer, "faster" system is beyond me ::)

Thank you Awmf2014! I will look into that option. I will you all the best in your travels and journey to Canada!

Hi all, FBI received my fingerprints on Dec 3rd, 2014 which means I will receive my report roughly a month from now (fingers crossed) according to other timelines I have seen. Would it be a wise idea to then mail out my complete application to Mississauga to get my sponsor approved and attach...

Hi Awmf2014! Thank you! Yes, I have applied to extend my visitor record for the second time now as the first one expired. I was confused before as well between extending a visitor visa and visitor record because CIC has titled the form "Extension of TRV" so my first thought was that I am...

Thank you!!! I was honestly beginning to lose all hope. Fingers crossed, everyone receives their reports soon!

Hi all, I just got off the phone with the FBI and the agent informed me that they are currently working on opening files received end of November/beginning of December. My fingerprints were received on Dec 3rd, but he could not find it in the system which means they still haven't started...

Jambo Jambo! You're right, I think I will just wait for my fingerprints to arrive and then send the complete application package. It's just that not being able to travel and see my family for almost another year gets to me sometimes, but I am fortunate to at least be with my husband in Canada...

Hi Ashsher, I had posted this question on another forum as well and some people recommended that I just wait for my fingerprints and THEN send out my paperwork. The reason for that is because Mississauga is currently taking ~85 days to approve the sponsor and the fingerprints are valid for 3...

Thanks Rob_TO! I will look into talking to an accountant.

Hi all, On the same subject, what if I have an income (I work remotely for a U.S company) but I am still a visitor in Canada? Do I have to pay taxes?

Hello all, I am applying for my second extension as a visitor in Canada. My TRV expired in July 2014, and I had applied for an extension until Feb 2015. However, we could not complete our paperwork in time so I have to apply for an extension again. Just some quick questions: 1. Under COMING...
