They might refuse if they feel that you are spending more time in Canada than your home country. They might assume that you would be overstaying. I am not sure if writing a letter would help (everyone would start writing a letter saying they will leave if their application is refused). I am...

Points will be given based on your number of yrs. at the time of applying.

It should be "Receiver General for Canada" since you are drawing it on a Canadian Bank and should be in $CAD.

If you are from a visa-exempt country, then leaving Canada and re-entering would constitute a new visit. In that case you would have 6 months from the time you enter Canada.

You need to apply for TRV atleast 1 month prior to your intended departure if you are not from a visa-exempt country. You can do that at a Canadian Consulate office. The immigration officer (IO) at port-of-entry decides whether to let you in or not (even with a valid TRV).

It is recommended to take the IELTS exam (since English is not your native language). If you do not take the exam, the points awarded for language will be at the discretion of the visa officer (VO).

I do not think you need to show the airline tickets. If you can show strong ties to UK (job, contract with employer, pay slips, bank statements...), that should do. You can contact the Canada High Commission in London to find out the expenses you would need for the required number of days.

Here is the link: http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/permanent-residence-refused-t20626.0.html It is not mentioned whether two periods were continuous or not in the above case. I am assuming if it is continuous then it should be fine.

You would have to make an application to change conditions of your stay as a student in Canada. Your study permit is tied to a particular institution. You can check this for more information: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/extend-student.asp

I suppose either way is fine.

You would have to take TEF: Test d’évaluation de français.

You would get 25 points for education if you obtain a Master's degree and complete atleast 17 yrs. of full-time study. You can count your internship experience as it was full-time paid position. You would have to take IELTS exam to claim the language points otherwise it will be at the...

You can check if you qualify under any of the categories (http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/index.asp).

As an US citizen you can stay in Canada for 6 months as a visitor. You can look for employment. If you want to work you need to apply for work permit 1) You would have to find an employer (who is willing to apply for labor market opinion (LMO) / HRSDC confirmation for your job, if required)...

You do not need LMO for these categories under IT workers (http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/work/special-tech.asp) You can check if you fall under any of the above categories.

Montreal does not seem as expensive as Vancouver or Toronto. Night life is pretty good. The public transit also seems to be good. As for the job opportunities it depends on your field and ofcourse you wont know unless you experience it first hand. Knowing French would help a lot. All in all a...

I asked the question because if your employer needs to get LMO/HRSDC confirmation then he would have to mention the minimum requirements for the job. If you do not have the minimum requirements then there are chances that your LMO might be rejected as there might be other Canadians/PR who have...

I suppose you can apply for the work permit (with LMO) since your study permit is valid. I am not sure if not going to the college for 1.5 yrs is considered a violation of study permit or not (perhaps not as long as you were not studying or working elsewhere). Let seniors respond to this. Do...

What is your current status? Do you have a valid study permit (does not matter even if the TRV is expired)? How long has it been since you moved to Alberta? What have you been doing (unemployed)?

1) Yes you need to apply for SIN, until you have SIN your employer cannot pay you (even though it is on-campus). 2) Yes, you are eligible to apply for SIN without work permit. 3) To apply under CEC you need to have 1 yr. experience with a post-graduate work permit or closed work permit (any...
