Sorry, I can't remember, some people were just saying it on a thread here. I never saw any official sources.

I just applied for an open work permit as a spouse being sponsored via inland sponsorship. My visitor status expires in a month. Should I also apply to extend my visitor status?

AOR finally received!

Does anyone know the email address that the AOR will be sent from?

I'm also still waiting on mine (applied Sep 10). I received biometrics 2 weeks ago.

My document checklist is as follows: # Application Form(s) - IMM 5710 # Supporting documents - Passport - Digital photo # Optional documents - IMM 5275 - Client Information It says nothing about IMM 5707, yet the instructions linked in my first post mention it explicitly. "In the Family...

Now I'm not so sure I got the AOR. My spouse has not received anything. I got it from client-update-mise-a-jour@cic.gc.ca, and it's a PDF, starting with We are currently processing your application for permanent residency. You now qualify to receive pre-arrival services to help you prepare for...

I just received my AOR and I'm looking to apply for the OWP, but I'm getting stuck on the last bit of the instructions here. They talking about what I should upload in the sport for IMM 5707. The problem is I don't have a spot for that in my document checklist. I'm not sure what to do.

You can still apply outland, yes, but you will not get any special ability to stay or work in Canada while you are waiting for approval. Right now the processing estimations are 10 months for outland, 13 for inland...

After working with some horrible people, we severed ties and did it ourselves. It is a lot of work to go through everything and make sure you did it right, but it's doable. Just be sure to sit down with your partner and read every single word of every single instruction. It's tedious, but the...

Hi @manudeepp, I just received my AOR and I'm looking to apply for the OWP, but I'm getting stuck on the last bit of the instructions here. They talking about what I should upload in the sport for IMM 5707, the problem is I don't have a spot for that in my document checklist. Did you experience...

Making a group thread for this since I don't see one yet. My info and current timeline: Citizenship: USA Submitted: Sep 10 AOR: Oct 10

Update: Do we even need the sponsor's birth certificate? We were advised that we did, but going through IMM 5533, it only asks for the applicant's birth certificate.

My sponsor doesn't appear to have an official "birth certificate". The only document we can find is a certified copy of a statement of live birth. It's worth nothing that my sponsor does have a Canadian passport that their late mother went through the process of getting for them, so either the...

In IMM 5669, Section D: Personal History, they ask for information regarding what you were doing (employed, studying, unemployed, etc) when you did it, and where you were when you were doing it (City, Country). I had the same job for a period of years, but moved around to a few different nearby...

Wow, I had been conditioned to be scared of doing such a thing. Everyone says it's harder to cross when you get married, and I thought straight up telling CBSA that you plan to stay in Canada permanently (through legal means) while coming as a visitor was very likely to get you turned away.

Oh wow, you did this and they still let you in? Were you intending on an inland our outland application?

@AngelBear I have traveled between the US and Canada many times, and my experience has been different than yours. Back when I started (came up here for school a decade ago) they would stamp it every time (aficr) but at some point they stopped stamping. They also usually don't give me a visitor...

Okay, I have an Amtrak (train) ticket I will submit. Thanks.
