    Love or Opportunity? Coffee Social

    I love how my simple cloth diaper sentence has brought up so much chatting! On the how do I wash them I dump out the solids.. I never scrape but if they are bad I have a hose that attached to the toilet so I do spray them.. and washing I just use a mixture of equal parts of oxi-clean, baking...

    Love or Opportunity? Coffee Social

    Nice!!! We are planing to get a chunk of land and build and earthship and try to live off of the land as much as we can hopefully in the next 10 years! I don't find it all that odd that I'm willing to try it because all of my family is pretty resourceful and homesteader types... My...

    Child tax benefit

    yeah reading it again it seems to me that the 18 months wait time is just for the temporary residents "or a temporary resident who has lived in Canada for the previous 18 months" I'm hoping that that is the case! I might have to call them again and make sure that is what it means!

    Child tax benefit

    so does that mean as a returning Canadian with my three Canadian children and my husband who is a new PR we don't qualify for almost 2 years?! When did this get added to the requirements? Last time I talked to Revenue Canada last fall they said we would qualify from day one?!

    I feel like to sue the Canadian Embassy and Government...

    Yeah it would cost a whole lot less to for them to find some way to bring technology into the picture... If we are able to maintain our relationships through Skype why can't CIC use that to do interviews? then they could just have someone in Canada (maybe working weird hours) that they would...

    yeah we figured that it would be cheeper to import our paid for car and even if it only last a the year (but I'm pretty sure it will be kicking around for years to come) then to have to try and get something asap upon our move up. I won't lie... A big part of it is that I wand a newer and...

    nice... you will be heading west while we are heading east! :D we are driving too and selling everything and starting over. It's a lot to deal with and adding three kids to it makes it just that much harder! Our car is all paid off and we sold our second car already so it made sense to at...

    Thanks everyone! Well our move is a bit crazy.... we are a family of 5 and we are moving with our two door toyota echo... that's it! We got a roof bag for extra (ha) storage but we will pretty much be taking very little with us and getting new once we are up in Canada. This is my 9th major...

    Hey all...I was wondering what is the time gap all of you with COPR between your e-cas saying "started processing your file" and the date on your COPR? The whole "decision made" but there isn't an e-mail to say "hey we mailed your COPR so keep an eye out for it... or if not received by such and...

    Sponsoring American wife to Canada

    So I would say that it seems like if you are traveling back to the US for the wedding doing outland sponsorship would be best(and faster then inland). I'm pretty sure you could send in for an extension for her to visit before her permit ends but I'm not 100% on that one. She could always just...
