I am not really familiar with the Refugee program, but I did just look at qualifications required to claim Refugees Status from Inside Canada, located here http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/refugees/inside/apply-who.asp You mentioned Qatar. If your wife is legally able to return to Qatar then...

Spousal Sponsorship is one type of Family Class Sponsorship. If you are going to sponsor your wife, it is a Spousal Sponsorship. Another type of Immigration program which might be available to your wife would be a Refugee Claim - possibly. Since she is married, you have children together and...

Yes, that's right. It takes a little while to process the Open Work Permit application. A couple of months, I'm not sure if it's about 2 months or 4 months, It's processed and you receive within that time frame and then you just wait for the PR to continue processing.

New forms and new processing procedures have just been updated by IRCC. Starting now and going forward, there will be no difference in the length of time for an INLAND or OUTLAND application. INLAND will allow your wife to stay here when her study visa is expired AND she will be eligible to...

I think many are getting their Sponsor Approvals at about 35 - 40 days now. When I was waiting for my Sponsor Approval starting last May, I was 70 days. You can expect to be much faster than mine was.

You would require a form to show Approval in Principal of your child's PR application before you could apply for OHIP coverage for your child. So your child's PR application would have to be submitted and processed to the point of receiving Approval in Principal. Update *** I checked the OHIP...

Congratulations on sending your application. It's a big step. You should keep an eye on this forum and look for a new thread for JANUARY 2017 Applicants. If I understand you correctly, I think your wife is still in Sweden, so you'll be interested in the JANUARY 2017 OUTLAND APPLICATIONS, as...

You need Immigration to see that your marriage is legitimate. Having a marriage at the court doesn't automatically disqualify you, others have been approved who had a similar marriage, but your goal is to show your relationship is genuine and not just for immigration. If you have any pics with...

Sent for GCMS notes. So tired of waiting. I need to distract myself.

If your wife applies from INLAND, from inside Canada after she has entered as a Visitor, then she can apply for an Open Work Permit at the same time she applies for PR. OWP application gets submitted in the same package when she applies for PR. She could expect to receive her OWP in about 4...

I would do both the steps you mentioned, case specific inquiry, and phone call. And because time is so critical I'd do one more step. I would call my local MP's office and ask them to act on an urgent basis, the same day. Request they contact Immigration on your behalf, and advise Immigration...

It's possible if you submit an Outland application and your wife then travels to Canada as a Visitor, she could be refused entry at the border because she has an open PR application. Other options: Your wife remains in Europe until her Outland application is complete. or Do Not apply for PR...

You should check online on MyCIC on the status of the application. Have you linked your account online so you can check for updates? You should also order GCMS notes to get an update on the file. It takes 30 days or more to receive the notes. Several points: 1. Yes, they can call her for a...

There is documentation which the Sponsor is required to include in their section of the application; information about their income, their birth certificate, marriage registration or documents supporting common-law status. The additional documents are outlined on the forms, in the Check List...

From the CIC website: "Non-accompanying family member: Family members who do not accompany the principal applicant may come to Canada at a later time. However, they will need to apply as a principal applicant in their own right and submit their own sponsorship while the public policy remains in...

You are the Applicant. You complete this form. And you provide the names and address of all the relatives as outlined on the form. This includes your parents, your children, your brothers and sisters, as listed on the current form. The purpose of the form might be several things; to further...

The VO is processing the principal applicant only. The Sponsor has already been approved. HOWEVER, if for some unusual reason some information came to the attention of Immigration which would show the Sponsor was actually not-eligible when they applied, Immigration has the right to act on that...
