    Non-convicted Misdemeanor?

    My husband has been with me in Canada since before we got married. We already got a 1 year visitor's visa for him in Canada. When we crossed over, we had his State police clearance which shows nothing on his criminal record because his case was expunged in his State. As far as the border was...

    Non-convicted Misdemeanor?

    We are now waiting for stage 2 approval for sponsoring my husband from the U.S. I am worried about his criminal record and how it might effect our application. He got caught spraypainting in his hometown in 2008. He was never put in jail and his FBI check shows it was a 3rd degree misdemeanor -...

    CPC-M received our application March 6. I received my approval by mail May 31 and the letter is dated May 29. Does that mean I was actually approved on May 29, or only when I received the letter?

    I received my sponsorship approval yesterday by snail mail..no email. The envelope was red stamped on the front with CPC-O stamp, yet inside the letter at the bottom, it said my approval came from CPC-M.

    Married status, Income Tax and benefits/credits

    I got an email from the minion this morning. They wanted me to do 2011 taxes for my husband and scan and email it back to him and he'd submit it to his contact at CRA. The minion sent me a temporary tax number for my husband to put on the tax forms. It's weird that they require a tax return for...

    Married status, Income Tax and benefits/credits

    I keep logging on, and even with "help" from my MP's minion, still nothing is happening. I called CRA and they said that the computers were updated and it looks as though I might receive something in July, but she also said that I didn't submit my husband's 2010 world income /sigh. There is...

    The delay is probably from the Buffalo office closing and all our applications being sent to pilot offices. They said that 75 employees were going to be affected from the Buffalo office closure, so that just means they have 75 less people to work on our applications. They probably aren't going...

    Can my wife take my baby out of the country without my permission?

    Hi, My post was intended for the original poster of this thread. As I do feel for what you are going through with your issues, I can only offer help for IN Canada situations as I don't have any international experience with custody.

    Can my wife take my baby out of the country without my permission?

    I don't know where in BC you live, but if you go to a courthouse near you, they usually have a family law information centre there which has a duty counsel lawyer present to answer any questions. You could ask about filing an emergency motion to get an order from the court that she not travel...

    Married status, Income Tax and benefits/credits

    I logged onto my account too and I don't want to ever again! I checked my CCTB tab and the statement of account thing. It's now showing that I owe over 1700.00. They updated it that I owe everything back since last October when I got married. I called the toll free number at CCTB and I told them...

    He said that he was going to print and fax everything to his CRA contact in Sudbury and hopefully this will get resolved. I have no idea why he is dealing with the Sudbury Tax office since where I live (Ottawa) it has to go through Shawinigan in Quebec. Who knows....fingers crossed I don't have...

    Lord give me patience! I just got off the phone with the minion at my MP's office. He called to ask why I'm not submitting the required documents. I said that I did, it's all there in the package that I emailed to you yesterday. He goes on to say that he didn't receive anything and he's looking...

    Unconventional proof of relationship

    Hahaha..this thread is awesome. We considered sending them World of Warcraft pictures with us and our friends all waving while taking a screen shot. That would be funny even though they probably wouldn't get it. We don't leave the house much and we thought maybe pictures of us sitting at our...

    I heard back from my MP's minion this morning. He said that he talked to his contact at CRA and that I should forward all of my documents to him so it will be processed quickly. I sent EVERYTHING that I sent the previous 3 times at around 10 a.m. I then received a response back from him at 2:50...

    Ya, I have MyAccount and I sent my change of marital status form on there as well as paper so I can send supporting documents. They changed my marital status and my last name but because the fact that on both marital status forms I sent in, I left the spousal SIN part blank (doesn't have one...

    Questions about crossing the boarder with American husband

    We were in this exact situation last September. We drove across the 1000 islands bridge and didn't have a problem. We told the guard that we were friends and that my "friend" would be visiting for a month. Are you guys married or will you be married after you cross? If you are married, you'll...
