Scylla, I could've gone with the extension route, and we even talked about it, but I would have eventually had to leave anyways due to having to go to the doctor, dentist, etc... It's a toss up between doing both, applying for the extension, calling CIC to inform them I'm wanting to become...

Yes I'm aware of that. I was just clarifying that because I'm young, and a way for me to show ties to the US would be to enroll in a school from my area. I was just saying that I was planning on doing that here, and it wouldn't be the greatest thing to do if that was suggested. I'm probably...

I live in California with my aunt who owns a house with her husband. I really doubt they'll do anything of that nature. Is there anything else I can do? I was planning on enrolling in a school out here in Ontario.

I'm only 20 years old and don't have much of anything aside from a bank account that shows a tie to my homeland. I'm really having a hard time wrapping my head around how anyone who isn't a Canadian Citizen is ever able to execute anything (common law, marriage, etc...) when it seems as though...

My passport is usually on scanned by a U.S airline agent upon my last connecting flight to Canada. Whenever I enter into Canada it's usually only looked at, then stamped, never scanned. I usually get one or two questions asking my reason for visiting.

URGENT!!!! Emergency! Today I will be returning back to California for exactly one week and returning back to Ontario. However I'm worried I may run into an issue. I overstayed my visitor status here by 12 days. Will this cause trouble for me when I return next week? I'm really scared I won't...

Will I be denied if I don't do it a month prior? I don't have a month! :((((

How much are the extension fees? and when should I apply before my 6 month visitor status expire? Is two weeks prior too late?

Hello! and thank you so much for your response. We've actually been together for three years, but we were in a LDR for almost 2.5 years before I moved in with him last year. Marriage is an option for us so it doesn't suck at all, we just wanted do do things a bit more traditional versus out of...

Hello all, I am an American Citizen currently dating a Canadian Citizen. We had been in a LDR for nearly 2.5 years before I recently moved to Ottawa to be with him Oct, 15th, 2013. As my 6 month visitor status nears an end, I wanted to know if there's a possibility to stay longer here in...

Ponga! thank you so much for your information/advice! "You can apply to extend your visitor status without leaving Canada. This will give you implied status, which allows you to remain in Canada pending a decision on your request. This also allows you to continue cohabitation, towards your Oct...

Hello all, I've been living in Canada with my boyfriend since October 16th, 2013... and with my 6 month status nearing, I was curious as to how we can go about me staying in Canada? I'm reading things about extensions and who qualifies for them... and I'm also reading about things stating that...

If my boyfriend and I have lived together for one consecutive year... but had very little documentation (shared bank account) etc... but have other minor proofs of this, could this harm our chances of me being approved for PR? What things should we include in our application that shows proof...

Re: Spousal sponsorship If I land PR would I be able to work/go to school without any permits? Would I be able to obtain financial aid? Can someone please answer my question. I'm quite depressed seeing how I'm not able to do much. I just came here from California about two weeks ago to be...

If we get married and he sponsors me as his spouse, is the 11 month wait (to start working) for the in-land or out-land route? I hear outland is faster, but in-land, and if all is done right, you could work within 6 months?

Hello all. I posted a previous question on here a few days ago in regards to working in Canada. I'll be leaving in 22 days and will arrive in Ontario on the 16th of Oct. As of now, I only have a few thousand dollars saved (less than 5k) I will be living with my boyfriend of three years and we...

Is there ANY work I could do while I'm in Canada? I'm only 20 and I'll be going to school once me and my boyfriend get married (to avoid international student fees) but I've read on this thread someone that it's possible to work as a caregiver? even if you aren't a Canadian citizen?

Thanks so much Ally! I was wondering what I should do in regards to applying inland/outland. If we do go the inland route, and all goes well with approval, I could be granted first stage approval and work, correct? But I was also looking at the Outland option.... I'd be able to come back...

Hey guys! I'm here again to ask another question... sorry if I'm starting to become annoying. So, it's official! I've booked my one way ticket to Ontario and I'll be living with my boyfriend starting Oct 16th! Now, my question: Is there ANY WAY I can work at all while I'm there? even if I'm...

Hey guys, thanks so much for your responses! I never thought about how true that is "best behavior" I know I surely was, but it doesn't mean I was not being genuine or whatever, just wanted to enjoy my time with him. He knows how "crazy" I can be sometimes, always blames it on my "girl-ness"...
