Doesn't he have a visible scar on his chest? Then you better mention it. It won't make a difference if he has been well since then.

CSE is case-specific enquiry. Go to CIC's page and type that in and you will see your options. They will most likely refund your money, but it will take a few weeks. Also, fill out your EE profile again in November, but if you get an ITA, do not send it in until after December 1.

If you got your ITA under CEC, then yes, I really hate to say it, but you should probably withdraw your application, then re-enter the pool and get another ITA as soon as you can after you actually reach 1 year of full-time Canadian experience, which is truly mandatory under that program. There...

CIC will get the report, but frankly, it won't matter. The Canadian equivalency at the top is what you will get credit for.

I would apply for a new one now, before doing your EE profile, just to be sure. The rule basically says that if you got it after you left a country, it's good indefinitely, but otherwise it's good for 6 months. Since you lived in the US for two more months after getting the report, it's unclear...

If you can't upload without putting in a date, put in a random one, one year from now for instance. In truth, as far as CIC is concerned, it will not expire so long as you don't return to the US for more than 6 months. If you live in the US now, put in a date 6 months from the date of the...

I would divide it into 2 periods. For the first, May 7-June 17, I would put "implied status", as you were waiting for an answer on the work permit. For the second, June 18-July 4, I would put 'visitor'. Then I would explain in the LOE that you were tying up loose ends and getting ready to leave...

Call them and tell them what you said here. If the correct birth date is on your documents, they'll change it for you.

Wow! I'm sure it is!

My partner's study permit was renewed although he is only writing his thesis this year and taking no courses. Apply quickly to renew your study permit through this semester at a minimum and then apply for the PGWP.

You can pay $980 together.

In Canada, 30 hours a week and more is considered full time. The magic 1560 hours is 30 hours a week x 52 weeks in a year. BUT the employment for some qualifications, such as 1 year of working in Canada for CEC, must meet both the 1560 hours AND the 52 weeks. You can't get there by working more...

Having a Canadian wife doesn't give you any EE advantage, as EE is an economic program. Of course, it does give you the option of applying as your wife's spouse under family immigration. It used to be that the EE and PR applications did not ask if the spouse was Canadian - only if you had one...

It's an interesting situation. Are you saying that your wife is the principal applicant on EE? First of all, if she goes to Canada on a study permit, you are entitled to an open work permit with the same duration as her study permit. I have done the same for the three years my partner has...

No.

First, don't hire an attorney if there is nothing problematic - like a health or criminal issue - in your case. But you still have to study every word CIC sends you, every description of every document they want, and be sure to meet their requirements. Second, EE and PR requirements are...

So the first issue seems to be whether you actually worked full time for a year. They are saying, basically, that from September 14, when you began the job, to July 3, when you submitted the application, is not a year. You are right, I think, that they are not taking into consideration your...

I'm really sorry to hear that. I remember it was a potential issue for you. When you finish your studies, will you be eligible for a PGWP? Your best bet might be to get one, get a job and apartment outside Quebec, and reapply. Maybe someone else has another idea, but I think it was a judgement...

There is reason to apply. For instance, Ontario has been inviting many applicants with scores over 400 to apply for its provincial nomination, which gives an additional 600 points if you get it. You have to complete an EE application and then wait to see if they notice you and invite you to...

1) How would they know it wasn't your address, and 2) what do you think people do if they land as PRs not having lived in Canada before they land? When you land, they will ask for your address, and the address you give them will be where they send the card. They asked us for proof of address...
