OK. I think we found a solution. Fly from Canada to the Dominican Republic (my wife gets a visa there automatically). Sail from the DR to the USA (my wife has crewmember visa good for 29 days). Then, from the USA, fly to Thailand. While there, file for a new 6-month visitor visa to Canada. Once...

OK. Let's say I ask for new re-entry visa from Montreal, to be delivered say in New York City, go sailing for 2-3 months, go to the USA, ande pick up my visa in New York City, then yes, I could in theory go sailing and get my new visa in NCY and enter Canada? ("I" means my wife who is Thai.

Oh boy oh boy... I assume, Scylla, that given your VIP status, your answer is quite credible. And I thank you for that. So this means, effectively, that a sailboat trip from the Dominican Republic to the USA (with a crewmember visa OK) will be impossible, since it is virtually impossible for my...

Hello all. MY wife is from Thailand. She has a 6-month visitor visa ending today (Sept. 30). We asked for a 6-month extention but the problem is that we are leaving soon for the Dominican Republic to deliver a boat to the USA. The trip will take 4 months. What happens when Immigration Canada...

Leon. Thank you so much for your help. So, we will stay in Canada for as long as it takes to get PR. Then we will look at citizenship. But for now, here's a technical question for you: On September 23, we will send the online application along with an application for an open work permit. BUT on...

Thank you Leon. Your answer raises other questions. 1: When you apply for PR from within Canada, is your visa automatically extended for as long as it takes? And 2: If you apply within Canada and during the waiting period you travel abroad for 5 months, does this mean that you lose your "PR...

Pim is with me now in Canada (I am Canadian, she is Thai) on a 6-month visitor visa, which expires September 22. She wants to apply for permanent resident status. We are common law partners. Question 1: While waiting for her Permanent Resident status, does she have to re-apply for visa extention...
