I guess the keyword was "visiting", from the first post, which is what I responded assuming the spouse was to return to country of origin before processing is complete, hence my thoughts on not being practical. Only after my response, an extension was indicated.

Many of us who landed in 2013 would have been able to apply for citizenship in 2016 (including me) but we were caught in Harper's changes and now we had to wait a year longer to apply, which would be this year (including me, again). People who landed in 2014, would have to wait until 2018, but...

I am not sure about red flags, but does it make sense to use a residential address where the person does not live in while the application is outland? Plus, since the address on record would be in Canada for the applicant, all maligns will go there, including the COPR, which is not practical. I...

May 17th, with amendments, messaged back to the House of Commons, expected to be approved. http://www.parl.ca/legisinfo/BillDetails.aspx?billId=8117654&Language=E&Mode=1

1. A request to CRA for non-resident status means you have no intent to live in Canada. 2. Among the conditions for a student visa is the intent to return to the home country. And more importantly, 3. Bill C-6 was approved. The intent to reside in Canada has been removed from the citizenship...

Going abroad for studies is not a reason to believe you are not residing in Canada unless you actually request CRA to consider you a non-resident and/or you go to study in a country of which you are a citizen (and thus, don't need a student visa).

I thought the doctor sent the medicals, how could you have sent them? The only thing you can send with the application is the medicals receipt. Is that what you sent? The old medicals receipt? If so, processing time is about 16 months and therefore you may be asked to undergo another medical...

There is a confusion in the understanding of this. When CIC says "any foreign addresses" it means foreign addresses after the person became a PR. Remember that many people land as a PR and leave Canada to live elsewhere temporarily, so CIC wants to know about those cases because you cannot have...

If CIC is ready to issue your visa and issued you a PPR, you have no need to worry about your medicals expiration date. Your visa will most likely be good for 1 yr (as they might have waived the required medical update) or up to the date your passport expires (whichever is sooner). Certainly a...

Yes, once you get to Canada find a GP. The GP will tell you what's best to do (if you need to be referred) or you can ask to see a specialist. GP's usually will look for an appt for you and will work to get you one as soon as possible if the circumstances call for that.

You may need to read this: http://www.health.alberta.ca/AHCIP/moving-to-Alberta.html In short, when moving to Alberta you may be covered by the province's health plan immediately, as you are moving from outside the country. However, yes, most doctors will ask for your information to make an...

Marriages by telephone are not accepted as valid marriages for immigration unless the immigration application was received before June 10, 2015. Reception date, pictures, documentation are irrelevant if the marriage is not accepted as valid...

"Oh this is important one and bit discriminating one", "No company want their clients to know that their employees sound foreigners." Are you willing to put that in writing? I would recommend you read about discrimination laws in Canada the HRC and The Tribunals. Your "trusted" scheme is also...

The process is available for the non-Canadian wife and the children at any time as long as the children are minors (and immigration law does not change); so, if Trump destroys the US it would have to be done within the next 8 years for that family to flee. Another thing to consider in that...

Are you kidding me? his wife an example? of what exactly? She worked illegally in the US years before she got a green-card, for which she did not apply, as she claims. Except for selected people under the visa lottery scheme, US green cards cannot be applied for by the beneficiary, someone else...

You have to consider that IT competition in Canada is very high. The person with the most experience, who's willing to take on the greatest responsibility at the lowest salary possible will get the job after employers post a job for 4 to 6 months. Few to none will give anyone an opportunity, and...

Don't believe everything you hear or read unless it come from Wikileaks... one thing is for certain proven during this American election... it came to show that ANYONE can be president fooling the most uneducated of voters. Just look at the voting stats. Only urban centers with go Democrats as...

You did not say when you are coming back bu i am guessing after your card expires. In terms of cost, taking option 2 will cause you to basically forfeit your ticket. Airlines tend to not consider a change in return destination unless a hefty fee is paid, if it is even allowed. Tickets that are...

As another poster said, Germany is the only country in the Schengen area where carrying a CRTD would allow you to enter without a visa. Not all European countries are part of the Schengen agreement. Don't be fooled by trusting travel within Europe without a proper Schengen visa; because of the...

No need to be scared if you were working and you can prove you were.
