When I traveled from Canada to South America via USA they wanted to see it. And on top of that they did a drug test with me. But that was the first time in my life and I travel a lot ;-)

Bring it in your carry-on and include the prescription if you still have it. I don't know how many pills you can bring with you. By mail (from Germany) only a 3-month-pack was allowed.

IEC visa are not extendable that means you cannot work between your expired Working Holiday and your approved OPW. But you have to stay in the country

I would do the same. I came here with an IEC visa (Working Holiday) and I was really happy about it. I looked for a job for about 6 weeks until I finally found one and I can tell you: These 6 weeks without a job, just sitting at home and waiting for my boyfriend were really boring and I felt...

You must obtain a police certificate from each country or territory where you have lived for six consecutive months or longer since reaching the age of 18. http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/security/police-cert/intro.asp

As far as I know working under implied status doesn't require a renewed SIN. You can work with your expired one until you get your OPW. I'm not 100% sure but one of my co-workers is doing the same at the moment after double-checking with CIC

You don't get anything back if you don't ask. Cheaper flights are usually non-refundable and I got not even €15 taxes back

You can pay online or at a bank. It's explained on the CIC website. Read the guide carefully. $75 are for the sponsorship application, $475 are for the immigration application and $490 are the right of permanent resident fee. You have to pay all of these fees but you can pay the $490 later on...

If a return flight is cheaper than one-way than book the return and cancel the other ticket after you arrived in Canada. I did it, too when I came here from Germany because return was $730 and one-way was $1800.

Hey Newpal. I'm from south of Stuttgart but have been living in Calgary since March 2012 and moved in with my boyfriend in April 2012. I included a rental agreement (until March 2013), joined bank accounts, proof of same address, proof of same health insurance, joint mortgage and joint condo...

After checking out this forum for the last 7 days I hope now that we sent enough proof of our relationship. Some people here had several hundred pages :o I'm not even close to this. But I guess it depends on the situation, right? We lived together all the time except for 2 occasions of 5 days...

I'm also applying through Vienna. My boyfriend's sponsorship was approved on May 27. I haven't received an AOR from Vienna yet but I got an email on June 4th from the embassy in Vienna that I had a 2 month gap in my background form (I'm such a dummy ::)) and that I have to fill out the form...

My Login just started working a few days ago although my boyfriend's sponsorship has already been approved on May 27th. So it can take a few weeks until ECAS works...

We applied outland and put all the documents in one envelope. Sponsorship has been approved by Mississauga and my application is now in Vienna. We never measured the size of our envelope. So I think there shouldn't be a problem.

Oh I'm sorry to hear that :(

I started a one year world trip in March 2012 in Calgary. 10 days later I stayed with a guy who offered me a couch on couchsurfing in December 2011. We fell in love very fast, I cancelled my world trip and I never left. I had a Working Holiday Visa until March 2013 and now I'm working under a...

After my Working Holiday year I applied for a Young Professional visa. I didn't know if they would approve it in time so I applied for a visitor visa at the same time. I received the Young Professional visa first and got the amount for the visitor visa refunded :-) Is there any chance that...

This is what I paid: $1040 for application package $180 for medical exam $50 for X-Ray $40 for blood and urine test $25 for German police clearance $25 for police clearance translation into English $55 for Canadian police clearance $40 for all the passport pictures $60 for 3 statutory...

Hi Tom thanks for adding me. I'm already in the April 2013 spreadsheet but thanks for telling me. I keep you updated but my application has been sent to Vienna two weeks ago. I'll have to wait a long time for any updates ;-)

I don't know if it has something to do with the change from paper medical to e-medical. They changed the whole process in March 2013. The paper medical form was called IMM 1017 but maybe the name of the form has changed since then. Did you check the document checklist on the CIC website again...
