    Unable to get married and unable to be/prove common-law

    This worked for my wife and I. We have a German civil partnership. We applied in the "Married" catergory. We had no problems, not once did our VO mention it. It was not on the list, but this line Amikety mention, plus the CIC's description on what constitutes a marriage for the CIC was enough...

    Thanks everyone! It's a huge relief to be done. My wife landed no problem yesterday at the Prescott/Ogdensburg border. We already went this morning to Service Canada to get her SIN. I hope Vienna can get the ball rolling so you can all get your visas quickly.

    How long is the wait from DM to COPR in hand?

    Thanks for all the input everyone!! I "only" live in Ottawa Sweden, so no backwoods location here ;) On Monday it will be 3 weeks. I guess I will see how next week goes and then contact them on Friday if it still hasn't come. Did your COPR come with Canada Post, or someone else? I assume it...

    How long is the wait from DM to COPR in hand?

    My wife got DM on December 24, 2012. Since then we have been waiting for the COPR to arrive at our home in Canada. Each day we wait for the mail carrier only to be disappointed. How long should we wait before we contact our VO? How long did it take for you to get your COPR sent to you from your...

    My wife got DM on Dec. 24th. And we still haven't received anything in the mail. :( Hopefully soon. Knowing we're done is a relief, but waiting for the mail carrier everyday in vain is taxing on the nerves. I just want this to be over with.

    Agreed. But any change is another step forward! Here's to hoping a little bit.

    I have that too now! I just checked. It just says Ottawa, Ontario, Canada on the left side, and our current mailing address on the right side. Still says "In Process" tho. I hope this is good news!

    Re: AUTO INSURANCE INFO I don't know if you will have any luck. Insurance rates are the highest in Ontario, especially the GTA. As you know, insurance depends on many factors, including sex, age, place of residence, type and age of car, etc. Even if you got a not so old but not so new car, you...

    My sentiments exactly. There seems to be no logic, no sense to it all. I don't know what else I can do.

    I just sent some additional proof to Vienna yesterday. And a change of address, now that I am living in Canada with our two young children and my wife is stuck in Germany alone. The seperation is extremely hard. Especially for the kids who cry for their Mama at night and don't understand what is...

    Right, sorry, I guess the secretary finally found my wife's app after 47 days and finally sent out an AOR before she threw onto the visa officers over flowing inbox. The same visa officer who doesn't reply to emails or hasn't given a visa in a few months. I must really be impatient or have my...
