Hi everyone Im landing in Toronto in 3 weeks. I have a couple of questions if anyone can help. 1. How long is the process generally in Toronto after arriving in the airport? 2. Except for my COPR, Visa, goods lists and proof of funds is there anything else it is useful to have ie photos...

Can anyone help. I have my Visa and intend on traveling to Canada this Autumn before it expires. Am I ok to travel stay a week and return home for a few months to sell my house and tie up loose ends? Also, how do I prove my finiancial funds when they are tied up in the house? Any help would...

I got my file number in June 04 and wasnt asked togo for my medical till Dec 05 and hadnt heard anything from them inbetween! Completed my medical this Jan and sent of a new Police Clearance form (no older then 12 months) and posted the fee. They then asked me for my passport around Mar 06 and...

This is the same as what I got and I live in the UK.....and I have my Visa now so I guess its fine. You have to send the original....it should have blue bands around the top and bottom of the page. Its just saying you have no criminal record.

Ok guys......sorry for jumping in on your queries. BCbound.......I just saw someone was on the same thread of conversation as me and joined in thinking we may be able to share experiences/answer each others Q's! You know what its like when you have so many things going through your...

Hi BCbound I know ive prob asked this a thousand times before but..... If my girlfriend was to go on a tourist visa (same as just turning up on holiday???) how easy is it to keep extending it? Obviously with the view to her living with me for a year then me sponsoring her as my...

Thanks for answering PMM Can you just answer the following please? 3. If I landed in Canada then returned home and lived with her for 1 year, would that count (or does it have to be before my visa was issued)? If we got married in the next six months means I would have to apply all over...

Sorry I also meant to mention that the Ireland England thing has obviuosly kept us apart even though we see each other every 4 to 6 weeks. Would this class as a Conjugal Partner if I was to sponsor her?? Should I go then try to sponsor her when I am there? What if I was to live with...

I have a problem that maybe you could help with. I am due to land in Canada in the next few months. I met a girl last summer and it has progressed to a stage where we are ready to live together, the only problem being I live in England and she lives in Ireland. What is the best way to go...

Its ok ive found it. Wouldnt mind but I posted a reply to it haha BCbound Posted it on Jan 4th if anyones interested. Thanks BCbound. One thing though. If I just want my money to transfer into a new account over there I guess thats fine......I wont be buying a house straight away.

Ha ha ok. But someone definately posted the name of a couple of companies who transfer money but tend to be used by companies cos they get better rates of exchange as opposed to Joe Public at the bank. I had a good search thru the pages but cant find it.....may look again.

From England. Someone mentioned something like 'Transex' or something that sounds along those lines. Just not sure how to go about taking/transfering my money. And obviously want to get the most i can for it. Would you just leave it in the bank here then open an account there and...

Im due to travel to Canada in a coupel of months and ive heard someone mentioning the "best way" to transfer funds ie most for your money. How do you go about taking your money with you? Can anyone help.

I applied as a skilled worker and have a decent-ish job (think its only like level 2 on the NOC thing) Bout 3 years exp I had at the time of applying. Have relatives there but thats all just a points thing. I have to say I spent ages doin my application! I put everything you could think...

My Visa arrived this morning in the post. Just thought I would share my timeline with you. Submitted Application - March 04 (London, England) Acknowledged - June 04 Medicals - Jan 06 Passport Request - March 06 Visa Received - April 06 For some reason it seems ive got kinda lucky with...

Its easy done though. I just did it myself and had to re-do it cos I put months and days in wrong order and only typed 04 instead of 2004.

Ok, I havent been even issued my visa yet, or been told its on its way (done medical tho etc). I have started to think about how to sell the house though should it come through. Out of interest how long have you been waiting. Did my medical in Jan this year and sent off my PR fee today...

Does anyone know if the fee is to be reduced/scrapped? I need to pay my fee and obviously timescales mean I must order the draft asap, but if it is to be reduced I can save myself money. If i paid now the full $975, would I get a partial refund if the changes take place in the coming days...

Yeh, im on the case. Got an up to date Police clearance, so just sort the fee out now. Should I send my new passport now even though they havent requested it?? I believe they ask for it according to others on the website But if they wanted a copy of my passport again, why wouldnt they have...

The best thing you can do is take the test on www.cic.gc.ca Its a link on the first page you come to.....if i remember right. It will pretty much tell you if your eligable and only take 5 mins. If its something you really want to do, start collecting your stuff together now as it takes a...
