Hi all, My partner is going to be coming to Canada from the USA this year. We would like to apply to extend his visitor status so that we can achieve common law and apply for permanent residence. He will be bringing his car. I understand that you are not required to permanently import your...

My partner is going to be applying online this year to extend his visitor status in Canada by 6 months, so that if accepted, we can be legally recognized as common law. That's our plan, anyway, but I also heard that if you're granted an extension that's longer than 6 months, you can apply for a...

This is probably a stupid question, but just to be sure. I'm going to be sponsoring my common-law partner in the future. I am a Canadian citizen. IMM5406 Section A asks for partner, mother, and father information. The IRCC website states: So, I'm confused here. Does he fill out my...

My partner is a US citizen, I'm a Canadian citizen, and he wants to immigrate to Canada so we can be together. We will be applying for permanent resident sponsorship in 2023 but are trying to be prepared ahead of time since it seems like anything that can go wrong, will go wrong. He lived in...
