dfb, when you land you will be given a landing document that is your proof of permanent residency in Canada prior to and up until you receive your PR card. I beleive showing this document will suffice to enter and leave the country as required.

joseeisma, my husband had to do a 2nd medical as well since his had expired closely around the time they were going to issue the Visa. He ended up re-doing the medical on April 28th and was given the Visa on July 8th (approx 2 and a half agonizing months). I think your case might be a little...

It's okay if you fill it out as long as he signs it :)

Hi Showell, Having gone through the process myself, living in Quebec and sponsoring my husband from abroad I have some input that might help. About e-mailing the CSQ to the processing office; it won't really do any good. MICC here had made a mistake and forwarded my husband's CSQ to the wrong...

Prices definitely vary... my husband didn't pay a thing for his medical!

Actually the checklist is quite clear. My husband is also Cuban and the requirements for applications out of Cuba have specific requirements and it's crucial you follow them. As ariell mentioned there are a few forms for which you need to send in along with 2 additional copies and for all Cuban...

I don't get why your husband's DMP won't send the results to London. Isn't it the DMP's job to perform the medical, run all and any necessary tests and x-rays and just forward those results to the CIC processing office? Wouldn't it then be the IO handling your file to determine the outcome and...

I was reading this thread and I have some to add :) My husband is also Cuban and I am all too familiar with Cuban politics and laws. I was VERY surprised to hear that your 30 year old husband only found out about Cuban law regarding living/staying with a Cuban family after they threatened him...

ZoroZoro, the total fees adds up to $1,040.00! The breakdown is as follows: $75 for sponsorship application $475 for the principal applicant & $490 for the Right of permanent resident fee The additional $250.00 on the Quebec side is for the CSQ.

Liuzhou LMAO... I needed that laugh! lol

sb03b this isn't true. The embassy halts processing for Quebec applicants until they receive confirmation from MICC that the selection certificate has been sent out. Yes Federal & provincial rules are different but if Quebec denies the principal applicant, the federal government will not proceed...

In other words if no one tells you what you want to hear, than they should keep their comments to themselves. Heed the information that was given to you here... you are obliged to pay the government this money back, whether you like it or not.

Liuzhou is absolutely right! You need to upload the forms from the MICC website, fill them out (one needs to be signed by the principal applicant), pay the applicable fee ($250.00) and send them off. Approval is complete in approx. 2-3 weeks. They will then send you a letter in the mail...

You can regularly check e-Cas using your receipt number and the sponsor's information. This will give you the very same information if you were to use the immigration file number as well.

Spouses are exempt from the minimum income requirements... even for those immigrating to Quebec.

There's not really a specific procedure... you just need to ensure they're translated by a certified translator. That's it! Where are you located?

Quebec has been "different" for the longest time. Though many here like to beleive it's a dependent nation, IT ISN'T! Once in Canada, if you so decide you can live, work & study in Quebec just as you can in any other province. All permanent residents living in Quebec are entitled to the...

How old are you and your siblings and are you or are they married or in common-law relationships? It's hard to help without a little bit more information...

Thanks for claryfying Rasha! I wasn't aware about the PR number working. You certainly are a fountain of information!

Unfortunately here in Canada and according to CIC your marriage is illegal since she was not yet officially divorced. One of a several things can happen; 1. CIC will refuse your application because your wife was still married at the time you two were married. If this happens you would need to...
