Thank you for the clarification, Karlshammer. =)

Ah, okay. So it looks like I can move to Quebec down the road if we decide to do that, but working there will be the issue.

I have not sent in my application yet for PR in Canada. As of right now the plan is to live in Vancouver. I was talking with my boyfriend last night and he mentioned possibly moving to Montreal. As long as this happens after I have received my PR it doesn't matter where I live, correct?

I called this morning and was told my certificate request is not showing in the system yet. The woman I spoke with said it won't show in the system until it's gone through multiple checks and is ready for the final check which is fingerprints. According to her, once it's in that final stage it...

Thank you both so much for this information. It has been driving me nuts waiting for this one, and the only confirmation I had that they received my fingerprints was the certified mail receipt showing the delivery over a month ago. I know they're well within their time frame, but this whole...

nvr, I also have sole physical custody of my children, with my ex-husband having visitation. You do have to have the other parent's permission to take the children or battle it out in court. Either way though you need it sorted out before you apply. I have not sent my application in yet, but...

I noticed the conflicting information as well and don't know which to follow. If someone could comment with the correct information that would be great. Here are the two different sets of instructions: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/photospecs.asp...

The only thing I'm worried about is producing a letter from a doctor within a week. Also, he wasn't asking for it for himself. He told me I needed it for the Visa office.

I just made our appointment for our medicals and asked about bringing in meds. The doctor asked what they were and I told him of my son's need for blood pressure meds and why. Despite my telling him we are applying under the family class he says I will need a letter from my son's specialist...

Wow, how the heck did I interpret the instructions that way? Well, if anything, I have now officially avoided having some poor person in Buffalo wonder why the f this lady is typing in all caps. =P

Oh man, so much for common sense. =) Thanks for your reply. I think my brain is just overloaded from this application. Trying to collect proof for a 5 1/2 year relationship, and then write about the details is a bit overwhelming.

Okay, sorry in advance if this is too silly a question, but I really want to do this application right. On the Sponsored Spouse / Partner Questionnaire it says to fill in all the boxes in upper case letters. I am doing several of the questions on a separate sheet and wondered if they also need...

Thank you for your response. I'm confused all over again now though. =P My bf lived down here with me and my children for two years. When his job came to an end here we decided together that taking one in BC would be the best thing because that is where we knew we wanted to be, and truthfully...

I searched for this info before posting, and didn't find what I needed, so please excuse me if this is a repetitive question. I'm having my sister and a good friend write letters attesting to our relationship being genuine and I need a little advice, please. (My situation is my CL boyfriend is...

I understand they won't refuse the application because of his health, but I wondered if they may at least ask for more information because I'm sure the medical exam will turn up something wrong. If this is one less thing to worry about though I will gladly accept it. Thanks for your response. =)

My boyfriend is a Canadian citizen who is applying to sponsor myself and my two children under common law as PR. My son, who is 14, has had health problems since he was 7, and sees a pediatric nephrologist due to having kidney issues from an illness years ago. He has problems with hypertension...

Yeah, I think we're fine with that part of it. He was down here working for two years while living with me, but needed a new job and we decided BC was the best place for it as neither of us wanted to continue living here. He's currently up there, but also continuing to help me keep this...

Thank you, PMM. I just was not making that connection and I appreciate your patience in answering this question for what has probably been the 1,000,000th time. =P

I am a US citizen living in California, with a common law partner living in BC. We are applying for him to sponsor myself and my two children from a previous marriage (ex-husband has signed the approval), and I am horribly confused about how to handle the medical exam. I know all three of us...
