Thank Line.a! Oh man, that sounds terrifying them asking you all these questions. I definitely don't want to leave again once I'm there now, too. But I better don't tell that the IO at the border. Yes, I'm bringing proof for my ties. I own my own business here with a business partner. I will...

Hi everyone, I'm just figuring out my trip to visit my girl friend and because I don't have a lot of savings right now I decided to only come over for about 6 weeks, so it's more of a holiday. My plan, however, is to, right away, apply for an extension of the visa. I heard I have to do that 30...

Hi Line.a! Thanks for sharing your experiences with me. It's good to hear that others have been in this situation, as well. I already took part in the Canadian Experience Class. That's how I met my girlfriend while staying on a Working Holiday Visa. Right now there is no other option for me...

Hi! I'm a Germany citizen (visa exempt) and, after traveling back and forth in the long distance relationship with my girlfriend since about a year, I made a commitment wanting to live with her in Canada and be able to apply for common law once we lived together for 12 months. I heard of...

Mr Chris, I saw your post and I have a similar situation right now. My girlfriend visited me a couple of times, I visited her a couple of times. I'm starting to worry about being suspicious to them just because I travel there so much. A lot of what I'm worried about is telling them I want to be...

No worries, you've already been much help to me. Thanks a lot! I'm not sure if I should open a new topic for that but I'm now curious what all these girlfriends and boyfriends say that come visit their girlfriend for 6 months. They would all need some kid of proof that they are not going to...

Hey zardoz, yes, I know that profile matches me pretty well, but from what I read what is missing in this list is a letter from a Canadian company stating that I need to be there for a meeting or a specific project. Isn't that a requirement, as well? I'm contemplating now on staying much...

Thanks zardoz, that's helpful. "b) try for the 12 months in Canada" - how would I go about doing that? Be there as a tourist for 12 months? I guess I would have to apply for a work permit or something, right?

Thanks zardoz, I appreciate your opinion. I think that's exactly why I'm having a bad feeling, too. The thing is that there is no illegal intend here. My company is working for all sorts of clients not only Canadians. We have customers from Germany, UK and the US. And from time to time also...

Hi everyone, I've been reading a couple of posts and still am not entirely clear about my specific situation, so I thought I might ask. I've been staying in Canada from April 2010 to Summer 2011. I met my girlfriend there and we have been traveling back and forth ever since. She visited me...

Just for people stumbling across this on their research: I crossed the border, it was no problem. You have to leave the country by the date that's on your Visa! If you don't want to do that: On the back side of your Working (Holiday) Visa, the thing they staple into your passport, there are...

Hey guys! I'm from Germany and on a Working Holiday Visa right now. The Working Holiday Visa is valid until April 17th. I plan to leave the country and re-enter as a visitor. As a German that requires no application or anything. Due to planning it would be much more convenient for me to leave...
