    joboffers in canada

    I am really sorry you have had a hard time in Canada. I know it is difficult moving to a new country. I have done it twice. And my education meant nothing. If you have a Phd (known in Canada as Piled Hip Deep - in bullsh*t) and you put that on your resume for a cleaning job then they feel you...

    For those that landed..was it difficult adapting?

    I am originally from Canada and I immigrated to both England and the United States. There is a transition period no doubt about it. But you need to get out and about. Take advantage of any free services available to you. Check the local paper for Book Clubs, Walking Clubs, or anything else...

    is same sex application for visa has same time of waiting period of processing

    One thing I can say. If you use text messaging on your smart phones. Go buy the app that allows you to download the messages. We did this for round two of information. If you look at the 11,000 plus messages between my partner, myself and her son you can that we live together and operate as a...

    Thread for outland Buffalo applicants!

    Trish1982 I know how you feel. It really is frustrating at times. I am really happy for other folks that get there PPR and aggravated we have to jump through the additional hoop of additional information. We ordered our CAIPS notes to see what was going on. It may not get us there any faster...

    Same sex couple here as well. Relatively complicated case. We were asked for additional information from our IO. We just got the CAIPS notes and she got our personal information switched. Based on the letter we got from her it was like she didn't look at our complete package because she is...

    FEBRUARY 2011 applicants here!!

    Truly this is not some great international incident it is just business. Like I said this OI's quirk. You work with it, around it, through it, whatever. We have a complicated case and we didn't get the best IO suited for our needs. It happens. So we work a little harder. From the lawyers'...

    FEBRUARY 2011 applicants here!!

    It was a fellow lawyer at the firm. It is just simple math. If for example you have a 5 lawyer team doing 10 cases each a month to an VO that has 50 IOs it doesn't take long for those 5 lawyers to accumulate a combined knowledge base about their professional adversaries the IOs. They know IO...

    FEBRUARY 2011 applicants here!!

    Why wouldn't he know? We the immigrants and sponsors are the only ones operating in a vacuum. The guys that make their living off the immigration industry are all known to each other just like in any other industry. He called a co-worker to ask about IO and other lawyer had had multiple...

    I hope every member of the February Crew is having a great weekend because it is getting down right depressing right now what with the waiting for CAIPS and having to get extra docs. And our lawyer tells us our IO is known for being a hardass on gay couples. Just great. Happy thoughts, happy...

    Getting a Divorce AFTER Landing in Canada as PR

    CMMMS: Your wife is messing with you. 1. Get a Post Office Box. 2. Give her the address. 3. Tell her to have all immigration and divorce documents sent there. 4. Walk out the door. If your marriage has so broken down that she is pulling this stuff on you then you need to leave for your own...
