1. Thanks for correcting me there. I admittedly barely visited at all since I left and revocation of this didn't make it in the news. Last I heard in that matter was a Jordanian family stripped from their new citizenship because they went right away to the UAE. For 6 months, OK. Correct my...

Isn't implied status about extending the permit, not the TRV? If your permit expires and you do not have a pending renewal, regardless of your TRV status you'd be out of status. TRV is really just for reentry, it's the permit that matters inside Canada.

My understanding is that as the husband is applying he would list her as his spouse. Or if she ever - god forbid - has to renew her visa she'd be listing him as spouse in her own application. Don't listen to me though, but rather the experts around here.

No, from the US. Applied online.

1- So I was right...takes almost a year just to process citizenship. If I remember correctly, near the end days of Haprer & bill C-24 they took away citizenship from some who left Canada right away after citizenship. Might have been revoked but last I heard is that "intent to stay" is a...

Daaaamn so even the withdrawal takes forever? That's what I feared and the main reason I didn't withdraw yet. I also applied mid June and just waiting eternally. At least you can call & yell at someone.

Only if you're residing in Canada. If you're residing abroad, you only pay taxes on Canadian income. I do not know about pensions. Yes, but 2 things to clarify: 1- Their children are Canadian so they are entitled to education. 2- As for the 2 out of 5 yrs, that's just to keep the PR, not to...

I'm actually starting to believe they somehow lost the whole fingerprint database or something. They already have my fingerprints from < 10 years ago but asked for them again nevertheless. Anyway, hoping for feedback about how to avoid rejection due to the purpose of travel changing thanks to...

I have a weird situation now. The main goal of for me to visit was to help my wife move with me to the US. Because IRCC is taking forever, her family graciously helped her move instead. The purpose of the visa now changed and it's to be able to visit my in-laws with my wife in Thanksgiving and...

Just to clarify...which people do you mean & which rules? If yo're talking about free healthcare...the ones abusing this are Canadians not living in Canada during their productive years and retiring there to leech. Immigrants are REQUIRED to live in Canada for a long time. As for "let's remove...

Even assuming full automation. If you have only x number of consumers that grows at 1% yearly. Then that's the most growth you can make since you cannot sell anymore than the population growth. You're conflating welfare/public support with economic/GDP growth. If you're not selling more, your...

Correct. OP is not from India though (as far as I understood) and that means it'll be much faster to just immigrate directly to the US.

Not sure what the congratulations are for. Almost 10 weeks here and nothing. I do not think a BIL is any progress really. In fact, all along it jsut says "we do not need your fingerprints". Contacting them is useless they just keep replying 3-4 weeks later with the same stupid: "it'll be...

If they're doing Canadian immigration to work in the US, they're in for a very big surprise....

FYI people do not get public services unless they live in the province for a while. A Canadian living in the US must stay for like 3 months before getting healthcare. Though, in all honesty, the system invites Canadians to leave, not pay taxes and come back to retire for free stuff. But that's...

Dude, even if you have a Canadian child today who are able to sponsor you, it's not guaranteed. There's a lottery and only 10% of the applicants who are financially ready to sponsor their parents are accepted. And this is today! Wait until the trump-like racists (e.g. Bernier) get to government...

I did but until it actually happens or at least there are concrete plans, it is all talk. It's like, we're thinking of buying a house, but until you have at least filed for mortgage pre-approval it's all talk. As long as there is a potential scenario in which they change their minds it cannot be...

Wow I actually never knew that you need to report intent...interesting...I should say I never even applied for PR so please do not take anything I say as more than a very uninformed impression. Follow the more veteran users instead. I gotta say I find it weird that IRCC want not only facts but...

Aaah I see. In fact, I'm happy to hear they're contracting this, as the irrational paranoia about the subject refusing to get any private help or contracting to experts who can make things super efficient are probably a huge cause of delays and inefficiencies. Notably though, in the US...

*If* they're doing it for their kids...Maybe the right (i.e. legal and also moral) thing to do is to sponsor only the kids and later she can come with the real intent of taking care of Canadian kids? (i.e. her application would be based on the kids and not the ex-husband). I don't know if...
