    Open Work Permit Application Questions while waiting for PR Application to Process (Spouse or Common-Law in Canada Class)

    Ah, that's unfortunate. I picked that for the length of stay as well. Not sure what I'm picking wrong to not get the other form. If you're able to replicate it with a new application let me know! I've just been trying a bunch of times using this one and you don't even have to log in. I also...

    Unable to get IMM 5707e for Open Work Permit Application while PR Spousal/Common Law Sponsorship is processing. What answers needed for questionnaire?

    Currently stuck with trying to apply for the OWP while waiting for my partner's PR application to process. I followed this guide for how to apply for the OWP in the GCKey IRCC portal, however I can't seem to make IMM 5707 show up as part of our required documents to submit. We only have IMM 5710...

    Open Work Permit Application Questions while waiting for PR Application to Process (Spouse or Common-Law in Canada Class)

    Are you able to back track so show what answers you gave for the questionnaire? I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong, but I can't seem to get the IMM5707 to show up as part of my required documents.

    Open Work Permit Application Questions while waiting for PR Application to Process (Spouse or Common-Law in Canada Class)

    Ok I just tried it and it looks like I was able to get IMM5710 but not IMM5707. It looks like 5707 is just family info though. I'm assuming 5710 is the main form. I did get IMM5257 as an optional document but I don't think that applies to my partner.

    Open Work Permit Application Questions while waiting for PR Application to Process (Spouse or Common-Law in Canada Class)

    That's really good to hear. Do you happen to remember what IMM form it was that you worked on? That way we know if we answered the questions correctly and went through the same process?

    Open Work Permit Application Questions while waiting for PR Application to Process (Spouse or Common-Law in Canada Class)

    Were you able to to answer all the forms? I'm not sure what to expect as I haven't done it myself. I understand the guide was telling you to answer certain words when you encounter those questions. Were they relatively easy to go through?

    That's great news! Do you know if you have to pay for it again since it's in a different portal?

    Open Work Permit Application Questions while waiting for PR Application to Process (Spouse or Common-Law in Canada Class)

    Which IMM # is it for your checklist? We have the IMM 5589 for my common-law partner and the version was 09-2022. #5 - Class of Application only talks about whether we are applying for In Canada or the Family Class (outside of Canada)

    Open Work Permit Application Questions while waiting for PR Application to Process (Spouse or Common-Law in Canada Class)

    Did you apply for PR by mail still? What checklist includes anything about OWP? Ours didn't mention anything about it. I'm doing our PR app online and it doesn't mention anything about including the receipt for the owp too so I thought the fees questionnaire is a bit outdated and geared...

    Open Work Permit Application Questions while waiting for PR Application to Process (Spouse or Common-Law in Canada Class)

    Hi All, I have a few questions with how to apply for the Open Work Permit while we wait for our Spousal Sponsorship PR to go through. 1. Since everything is now done online, I understand that we have to wait for our AoR before we submit our Open Work Permit application. We are now in the...

    Example of shared expenses that aren't joint accounts?

    You are right. We only need at least 2 out of the 4 options on 7c. I just figured since we had a joint credit card it would technically have been an easy tick for 7a's shared credit card account and 7c's "shared expenses" box however it seems to be debatable to have the expenses in a joint...

    Example of shared expenses that aren't joint accounts?

    That makes sense. We have a joint credit card that we have been sharing for a few months during out cohabitation. It has mostly in-person expenses itemized with both our names in there as well. So I figured it might be good to use for shared expenses evidence. I see what you mean, but along...

    Example of shared expenses that aren't joint accounts?

    Sorry, I edited the main post. I am referring to the document checklist IMM 5589. Going back to what you mentioned though, how would having a joint credit card/bank account not be proof of shared expenses/financial support to each other? Wouldn't a joint credit card statement show both your...

    Example of shared expenses that aren't joint accounts?

    Not sure why this is a separate requirement for proof of relationship to sponsor. IMM 5589 Document Checklist 7(a) has a check box for joint utility/bank/credit card accounts but; 7(c) asks for documentary evidence of financial support between you and your sponsor, and/or shared expenses What...

    IMM 5532 - Part C, Question 4 - Still confuses me.

    So I am currently living with my partner (the applicant). So we answered 'Yes' to question 3: Are you living together now? My confusion is if Question 4 should still be treated separately or in relation to Question 3? Question 4: "If you are not living together, have you visited each other...

    Applying for PR while on Maintained Status (as a visitor). What do we put for the "status" and "to" date? (IMM 0008)

    Yes, they applied around the 30 days before it expired as recommended. Got the AOR and everything but I assume things will be quiet for a few months as the wait times are around 6 months. For 2. Are you referring to the date we are going to submit the PR application? It doesn't allow us to put...

    Applying for PR while on Maintained Status (as a visitor). What do we put for the "status" and "to" date? (IMM 0008)

    This form is now done online so I will be referring to the question number based on the guide. Question 10 Current country of residence has a follow up question about current immigration status and a 'from' and 'to' date for that status. The applicant was previously under IEC 'Working Holiday'...

    Are proof of ties to country of origin for a visitor record extension mandatory? US > CA

    Hi all, I am currently working on an application for visitor extension for my GF. She is currently in Canada under a Working Holiday Visa that will expire soon. We plan on extending her stay as a visitor until we are able to apply for PR Inland Sponsorship. I have seen many people on this path...
