Here is an old link from the forums: https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/taxes-on-remote-work-in-canada.535393/ Also this...

If you are physically in Canada working as an independent contractor - you are still expected to file Canadian taxes even as a visitor.

That looks like a bit of progress - from the other thread it looks like they needed to do a closer review and that is why it was sent to Calgary? Are you using representation?

What is your timeline? Found it in the other thread. - Maybe we need to stick to one thread as it looks like two are going with the same people/subject. :D

As a part of the application, they'll need to explain it in detail yes - but it doesn't change the first step nor should it change our answers. See if he is eligible for the restoration of status extension that is available before submitting for Spousal Inland Sponsorship. There is no guarantee...

Things happen - does it really matter WHY it happened? The point here is right now he is out of status and they are trying to correct it. If he is eligible for the restoration of status do it ASAP so he can be in maintained status (previously called implied status).

It is an extra thing. All the extra things add up. :) If it says "optional" and you can do it - do it!

Right I keep forgetting 14 months ago is still in the COVID extension timeframe. Our lawyer submitted our restoration of status and my OWP at the same time - but they have to approve the restoration of status first, which apparently will kick me to the back of the line in priority. He isn't...

No. - if it can be done by/available to a Canadian you can't do it. If the company has an office or branch in Canada, you can't do it. If the position would not in anyway be open to a Canadian ( freelance or otherwise) but is for an American - you can do it. You also need to be an independent...

You can apply for restoration of status with your application. If there is a way to restore beforehand he should do that as applying for restoration of status may delay your processing time.

We used this form for so many things - it is worth having and I would definitely include it this round. We even included it in our married packet since it shows the history ( we started the process when we were common law but didn't submit it until we were married.)

Did you submit a IMM 5409 - Statutory Declaration of Common-Law Union? If not, I'd recommend putting that in there too.

I believe you can study online at Canadian schools without a study permit. You may also be able to take courses that are less than 24 weeks long without a study permit.

I am sorry that happened to you! Did you include the notarized common law document? Have you reviewed your packet to make sure you didn't select married somewhere in the paperwork?

@wsidd - What happened? I saw your update on the spreadsheet! Was it the signature or something else?

What country are you from? If the US you can apply to have it reinstated online. I am not sure of other countries but here is the link ...

You can apply for restoration of status with your application. Are you doing a work permit? If you do that then you'll be in implied status once you submit your application. Our lawyer said it can take longer if you aren't in status at the time of application ( it doesn't always- but it can)...

You need to get legal counsel on two issues here. Your immigration and your custody/divorce issues. There are protections for sponsorship breakdown situations - Since you have a child - You may be able to apply to stay in Canada on humanitarian or compassionate grounds. Get legal counsel ASAP!

We just moved to BC and are looking into this too! I called and talked to a specialist - she gave me a list of things to include on my husband's MSP application, said it took 21 days to process. We weren't sure if this works for implied status situations too- but she said to apply anyways since...

This is hopeful news!
