Thank you, Ganman! You are helpful and kind. :)

My husband scored an 8.5 overall band score which will give him the maximum points - 24. Is there any benefit in me taking the exam now?

Wow! over 100 background search companies? That plus your willingness to forgo the immigration process altogether so that she never finds out. The lengths you are willing to go to bury your past is . . . creepy. Just sayin'

I don't know if someone else has already posted this (if so, disregard) but this could be a huge game changer for my husband and I. I am super excited. http://www.canadavisa.com/canadian-immigration-changes-considered-100317.html

I have never longed for Canada as much as I did while watching the ceremony today. My heart was beaming with so much pride you could think I was already there. Did anyone else watch it?

Towards the bottom you'll find the information you're looking for. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_passport

As much as possible avoid an 'out of Canada' application. The Nairobi office has the record of being ridiculously slow.

If you're unable to obtain a Canadian visa, Mexico works too. I've done that before and so have a few of my friends. Tourism in Mexico is very common at this time of the year.

Thank you ei8ht. The act of kindness has been reciprocated. Off topic question for you: Your signature says something to the effect that US was good but that you felt Canada is better. Would you care to elaborate? Or have you answered that in another thread that I can read? :D

You're welcome. ;D

Suin, your children will amaze you. When I was four and my brother was 7 my dad was posted to Canada. We spoke no English. Within a month, my mom said we were speaking so well she couldn't keep up with what we were saying. Then we moved back to Kenya when I was 10 and did not speak a word of...

lol! I feel better already. For that alone, I gave you a positive rating.

Too funny! I hardly respond to posts but apparently in the few times that I have, I have managed to offend some people. Poor, poor pitiful me! :'(

I wish I could be of more help in that regard but I don't know what the procedure of obtaining a Canadian lawyer is from outside Canada. I suppose it is the same as how one would hire an immigration lawyer. See if this link helps. You would need a Civil lawyer in Ontario to handle your case. I...

Oh! I have another idea. Does your country have an embassy in Canada? Contact the Academic Attache for your country and ask them to intervene on your behalf. That would be a more diplomatic solution than the one I suggested earlier.

Your situation is very sad and it angers me. In their defense (benefit of the doubt) I work with schools and the hardest time to get someone to listen to you is over the holidays. In fact for that reason, I am on vacation too because I can't get anyone to talk to me or return my e-mails or...

Wouldn't it be easier to deposit the funds in a bank in the US that has a branch in Canada? That sure seems like a lot of money to be carrying around in Traveler's checks.

She lives in Vancouver. Actually - she lives in Burnaby but works in Vancouver but it's all Vancouver to us. :)

My husband and I live in the States. If we stay, we will make more money and get taxed less but the quality of life in Canada is better. I lived in Canada as a child and my sister lives there. My memories of Canada are very fond and when my sister visits us in the States she keeps asking us...

Who said you cannot fly because you are out of status? Do you not have an Alabama DL/ID? Or an unexpired passport? What else have you been denying yourself?
