It's both. Awaiting a decision (and covering your butt in case your application gets returned) while staying with your family. Because if the decision doesnt go your way (if you don't get the work permit) you're still there to visit family.

This is where "Dual Intent" comes in. You tell them she's visiting while you wait for a decision on her Permanent Residence application. Dual intent (entering Canada with valid status and the intent to immigrate) is allowed. Don't overthink it. She has a valid multiple entry visa, it doesnt...

Send the same message twice, once with each application number.

His financial obligation ends either when you turn 22 or at 10 years from your landing date, whichever comes first. Sounds like you turning 22 will be what ends his financial obligation. All that means is that he promised the government that he would provide for your basic needs, and if you...

Depending on your age, he may still be financially responsible for you, but that doesn't mean he can revoke your status.

It's only available to descendants of folks who came through refugee or family sponsorship streams, not to those who came through economic programs, which would mean you are not eligible. You can still try to qualify for other immigration streams, like Express Entry or Provincial Nominee, if...

Honestly, at this point I feel like that's what I should have done. My application at this point has been a comedy of errors (forgot to include my birth certificate so our app was returned, resubmitted to the wrong office so our inland app became an outland app so no OWP for me, received notice...

You should still be okay. If you're traveling through a land border, they might pull you into secondary inspection to verify that you do have a valid visitor record (idk if they can/do verify that from the booth) but that's nothing scary. I've only flown in once, so I don't know how the airport...

There was a user in another thread who had been in Canada for 3 years by extending his stay 6 months at a time, so I don't think they'll have too much of a problem as long as you're still a legitimate visitor (you haven't worked or studied illegally). I would go with 6 months, it seems like a...

Spousal sponsorship is the exception to the rule about having to submit the OWP online. You have to print it and mail it with your PR application

From what I've seen (but not experienced, so I could be wrong) this can be normal for some applications. It could mean that they might want to request an interview, which typically done at the nearest VO. It's not guaranteed, but it's a possibility.

Alrighty then

Mine was still in Sidney when I got my medical request, and was transferred to Missisauga about a week later. I noticed on the tracker that yours also hadn't been transferred yet, so I'm not quite sure why the difference, I don't think it has to do with VO unless they decide well in advance...

From the application guide: The principal applicant and each family member 18 or older (who are not already Canadian citizens or permanent residents), must submit police certificates from the following country or countries with the application: Current country of residence if you (or they)...

Once you get the medical request letter, you have 30 days to do it. I can't tell you when they will send it, however, you'll just have to be patient. I would advise you check your application status using ECAS. It's possible that they have sent the request and you have not received it yet (it...

Unless the PCC was part of the country specific requirements, I though you only had to submit PCC from countries where you have spent the majority of your time since turning 18, along with the country you currently live in. So if you have lived anywhere else (including her home country) for...

My medical request came through GCkey, not through my regular email. @shoaibmozid try contacting them through the webform first, and you can also ask for an extension, as you have not received the request letter. Include a screenshot of your ECAS showing that it says they have sent you the...

It means that the COPR isn't a travel document, you still need a passport and valid visa (if you're from a country that requires a visa to enter Canada)

That's ECAS for "passed". GCKey should show that you passed

There usually is a small grace period, but I would always advise to go with the most recent version as long as it's feasible.
