Hello all, My wife had applied for PRTD from online portal on 3rd December 2022. We are located in Germany. Today we got an email from Permanent-Resident-Card@cic.gc.ca that they need scanned copies of all pages of passport. But the email says: The above information/documents must be received...

An update with this application - my wife got an email from CIC asking for a copy of all pages of all travel documents held in the past five years. I already sent them her passport copy including all blank pages. We can take another scan and send it. However, we had applied online. But the...

Hello all, So, we finally applied for PRTD for my wife who has been out of Canada for the entire five year window period. Out of these five years, 2 years has been with her living alone outside Canada and 3 years with me (Canadian citizen) also outside Canada. Quite nervous sending in this...

Is this also the case if the sibling is a citizen? The citizen sibling has to be living in Canada?

Hello everyone, I am putting together the documents needed for applying for PRTD for my wife claiming residence time as accompanying spouse to a Canadian citizen. I am currently in Germany. For my wife's address proof, we have city registration and other documents in Germany. For my own proof...

I guess you support the truckers in Ottawa as the true Canadians. Or are you one them? Will you get into your truck and honk after you reply to this?

Spent too much time in isolation during the lockdowns? Consider getting help.

Both of us can travel to the US and have done quite a few times in the past. I would rather not use the option of entering Canada through the US as we might not be able to leave until a decision has been taken on her application. Since we have been living in Europe for quite a few years, a...

Thanks again for your responses. I will look into a PRTD application. Since our plans are flexible, the best course of action would be to apply for a PRTD a few months before we might be ready to leave for Canada. If that is granted, all is well - we go to Canada and apply for her PR card from...

Thanks @armoured for your response. The problem with applying for PRTD is that we would need to go back to Canada soon after it would be granted. That would not be possible as both of us are working and with Covid restrictions in place, traveling now is extremely uncertain and things don't...

Thanks @dpenabill for the detailed response. From the thread, a couple of red flags - after obtaining her PR status, she has less than 100 days of residency in her 5 year window. That is nowhere near the 730 day requirement. Though she lived in Canada for 9 years as a student before becoming a...

Thanks again. I don't have fixed assets like a house but both of us have our bank accounts in decent shape with sufficient funds to support ourselves. I will check out the sponsorship forums soon.

The fact that it would be revoked if her PR renewal is refused seems like the best move. If by some chance, it is approved, we are ok, and if it is revoked, we can start a fresh application. We don't need to come to Canada soon. We are planning to return to Canada for good by the end of this...

Thanks for the quick response. If they do not count, she would need to first give up PR status and then re-apply with me sponsoring her? Or if the intention was to re-apply, will it be possible to just put in a new PR application?

Hello all, I have been a Canadian citizen since 2019 and prior to that got my PR in 2014. Since August 2019, I have been living in Germany as my wife got a job here. We have been married for 7 years and we got married in Toronto. I had sponsored her for Canadian PR and she got it in January...

Congrats!

Thanks for the answer.

Hello everyone, I am a Canadian citizen and am preparing the application for OCI. I surrendered my Indian passport last June. My wife is of foreign origin but we have been married for 5 years. For my wife to be able to apply, would I need to get OCI first separately or can we apply together if...

Thanks for the quick response.

Hello all, I have been going through the forum and this question has been asked in some other flavors. These are my specific questions, as I think I have done my research. First, a brief background. I came to Canada in 2012 on work permit, became a PR through CEC in Oct 2014 and became a...
