Hi there, So my partner and I are in Canada helping my parents move and my partner was approved. This is great news but we were sent an email that said we needed to send a courier to pick up the document in 7 days. The problem is we need to get a way bill to the embassy but I'm not sure if they...

Will do, thanks:) Good advice for the cat allergy.

Absolutely we would bring the PR application info too. Technically the cat is my sister's (she lived in Italy and left her cats with me because she went back for medical reasons). Since then 2 have died and I have the one remaining cat that I am returning to her while we visit Canada. I know...

Thank you everyone! Really great to hear similar experiences and your advice.

Thank you for sharing your experience. Thank you for sharing your experience, it does sound similar and makes me feel better. I'm always honest as I have nothing to hide and the idea of the bank statement is a great idea. Me and my partner will be travelling together though. We have a toddler...

Thank you for your answer. Yes I thought so too. The cat is my sister's so if I get a letter from her I hope this helps, we'll have to buy a return ticket with flexible dates in case we decide to change it but not sure how to show we still have a house and things in Milan. As for the luggage...

Hello all, I'm in a bit of a situation where I need to make a decision and would love your knowledge to help me decide. Here's the lowdown: I'm Canadian, my common-law is French/Italian. We currently live in Milan and have a child. As of May 2 our application is being processed. Sponsor...

Yes he's Italian, I could probably do it myself if I can find the time. Here in Italy after the documents have been translated, they then go to the courts to be certified. This can be done as a package (I. E. If I have 12 documents they list them and certify on one page) or each page can be...

Thanks! So every page needs to be seperately certified. I'm thinking it might be cheaper to send everything to Canada to be translated.

Thank you for your response although I probably won't translate myself. The paystubs are not simple, full of terms I don't know. Do you happen to know if I can certify the documents together in a package or do I have to individually certify them?

Hi Julie, thanks for your reply. I read that all documents that are not in English or French needs to be translated and certified. Where did you find out this info? Is it on the government website?

Hi Lilith, thanks for your response. Yes we both live here. I've tried emailing the embassy several times to no avail but I did get the translator information from the Rome Embassy website so I hope it's current! In any case I'll try emailing the one in Canada, I can't believe I didn't think of...

Hi there, I'm sponsoring my common law partner and I have some confusion regarding what exactly needs to be translated. According to the website, everthing not in English or French. This means my pay stubs, letters from family and friends, identity card, rental contract, residency document ect...

Thank you both! In the end I just had my family and friends write the letters, sign them and send me a copy (not the original). I'm not having them notarized so hopefully they'll serve as extra supportive documents. We have some financial supporting evidence such as a joint account, paying our...

Hi all, I'm including lots of family and friend's letters in our application. Would anyone happen to know if the ones written in English need to the original copy sent or is a photocopy ok? I can't seem to find this info anywhere, maybe my head is just full at the moment! Many thanks, C

Hi All, My partner and I had some fantastic Christmas news when he received an email from the Rome Embassy asking for his passport. He sent it via courier a few days later and they refused to sign for it. Now finding out why is going to be a nightmare as it is impossible to get in touch with...

That gives me hope, thanks Mirkopal :) The people you met were other Italians that moved to Canada? 1 month is unbelievable..that would be amazing :D

Hi Katie 3234, I am sponsoring my common law partner whom is Italian:-) The 5-8 months starts from the time Rome starts processing the PR applicant's application and from what I read that could take over a month. Our time line so far is: Application received in Miss.: April 14th, 2010...

just want to make sure, and just another question since i been living in spain for 3 years do i need my opcion c printout? No you don't but you do have to provide a letter of explanation of why you aren't including an Option C and evidence (i.e pay stubs) of work in Spain. See the check list...

Great...thank you so much for your reply:-) I thought so....
