    Mexico

    I was delayed in SA because whoever opened our app said it required signatures on the back of photos which is not required for Mexico. They admit their mistake and after getting my MP involved they agreed to replace my file as it should have been without the delay they caused. Obviously that...

    May I ask when you got SA? I know you said you are ok about the same timeline as me so I want to get a feel for how far off we are. Thanks!

    To claim or not to claim your non-resident spouse on your Canadian tax return

    Thanks Rob_TO this is exactly what I needed - you are way more helpful than the CRA :) So I won't be claiming income splitting or spousal tax credit - but I should still declare his income? Which again I am guessing at... He doesn't file any sort of tax return and has switched jobs within the...

    To claim or not to claim your non-resident spouse on your Canadian tax return

    Need Help!!!!

    Okay so other's have answered in regards to you overstaying... however, if you continue to work, which you have said is why you don't want to leave, then you do in fact need a visa. Yes there are open work permits issued to inland applicants now who are in process. However even if you got...

    Mexico

    I had the issues with the pictures - but no that was the CIC's mistake - it doesn't say to write on the back - and if you already got SA then you are fine. This happened when they received our application, they said it was incomplete because my husband didn't sign his pictures....

    lol, I think this would be jumping the gun... shopping is my only therapy. It's been almost 2 months since our SA, and we have heard nothing from the Mexico VO... I did email them after about 1 month, they hadn't received it. I call CIC Call centre about 2 weeks ago, still showing in transit...

    I saw this after I saw the other persons reply. I won't bother then. I think it's just my inability to be patient I feel anxious if I'm not doing anything :(

    Mexico

    Thanks - I don't think it can hurt so I'm going to do it. Out package only covers up to and including our wedding and honeymoon. This will be my 3rd trip down since then and now that we don't have wedding planning to do we have done some traveling within Mexico so maybe that will help.

    Mexico

    So a lot of people have out together additional packages of relationship evidence for the time between sending their initial app and subsiquent visits with their spouse. But others are saying not to do it. I'm headed down next month and now I'm confused, should I or shouldn't I send further...

    Spousal sponsorship

    Yes it doesn't sound like you have a good grasp of this, and it can be very confusing. There are multiple guides to go with multiple forms and there are multiple checklists. Take your time and read over everything with a fine tooth comb. The guides will help but you can't expect to get it done...
