    MSP Question

    This is a long shot but my brain won't drop the what if. I've been a PR for almost 6 years. In 2016, I was about to give birth. I was still on visitor visas and my CAF husband and I were married for almost 2 years. I couldn't apply for MSP as a visitor so I was private paying everything. It was...

    Getting a driver's license!

    I'm starting my Sponsorship paperwork. I really want to get my license and eventually a motorcycle license. Do I have to wait till my PR comes through? Would I be able to try for it now? I'd hate to get turned away for driving school. I just can't wait to get a Honda CBR!

    Pregnant American with Canadian Husband. Questions about my baby's immigration.

    It has nothing to do with my original question. I'm going through my forms before I send them out. On my applications, it asks for information about my family "whether or not they accompany me to Canada" My question is this: Do I include people like my mom and siblings? Or is this a spot...

    Pregnant American with Canadian Husband. Questions about my baby's immigration.

    Thank you for that! I had no idea, I'll apply Outland if its all the same to them and you're right, I'll have plenty on my plate without thinking about work. Is there any difference in the application process filing outland vs inland?

    Pregnant American with Canadian Husband. Questions about my baby's immigration.

    I am currently four months pregnant. I'm still in the process of filing to be sponsored by my husband into Canada but for now we live together in Canada.

    Yes! Thanks so much. Also, I was just starting on my extension application and I did the questionnaire that assesses whether or not you're eligible to apply and I came a part that threw me for a loop. "You may be eligible to come to Canada through Family Sponsorship.. First, your family...

    Thanks so much. With the call center "updating their phone lines", it's been really difficult to get answers on my situation. I appreciate all the help I've gotten here. I guess the application related question I have is this: I was told by someone at the call center that I could send out my...
