Thanks very much for the quick and helpful reply!

Hi, My apologies as this is undoubtedly covered in the forum, however... My partner, son and I arrive in Canada in May and she must go through her permanent residence questions from immigration (my son and I are citizens). Our final destination is Halifax but we travel via Toronto and connect...

Thanks for the advice. I am tempted to have her renew it now and like you mention, take the old one with us for verification. I'll try to get a definite answer out of the CHC in London but I don't know how long this will take!

My partner's PR has been approved and we're moving to Canada from the UK in a few months. A couple of questions please: 1) We put Ottawa as our port of entry. Does it matter if we don't fly into Ottawa or even settle there? When completing the application Ottawa was on our list of places we...

Wow that was quick! Thanks. So, if we visit my family for a week in February and return to the UK we won't have to undergo the same process on the second (and final) visit to Canada in June? By that time her PR status will be confirmed? And the Citizenship and Immigration people won't have a...

Hi, My apologies as this is probably covered somewhere in this forum but I'm hoping someone can answer me (fairly) quickly! My common-law partner has just been approved in her application for Canadian PR. The COPR letter indicates we must arrive in Canada by 31 May 2014. My question is: Can...

Thanks very, very much for this response. It was very helpful and very relieving! My son does have a UK passport so your first option will hopefully apply to me. On the other hand, do you know if I can apply directly for a Canadian passport for him without getting this citizenship proof...

Because although the website is helpful, it's very disorganised and full of semi literate responses, like yours for example. Thanks, i will continue the search.

Hello, Apologies as this is probably covered on this forum somewhere but I was hoping to get a definitive answer to my case. I'm a Canadian who lives in the UK and have recently been approved as a sponsor for my common-law partner. I also have a 2 year old son who I initially applied for but...

Can someone please help? I'm a Canadian living in Britain and am applying to sponsor my common-law partner and our son. They've gotten their photos done today (8 each) for the permanent residence application and we followed the instructions in the region specific guide (appendix B). Nowhere...

Hi, The instructions on the form says the date you 'change from being single to being common-law, not the date you started living together'. I could give you the date, time, hour we started our 'relationship' but what quantifies common-law? I suppose when we started sharing bills, rental...

Hello, Quick question on the common-law relationship, specifically, question 8 (b) on the IM1344E form (Application to Sponsor, Sponsorship Agreement and Undertaking). Question 8 (b) asks for a specific date when you entered into a common-law relationship. Is this the date you began sharing an...
