Hello. I have been living in Canada since 11/2013 I was approved of a 6 month extension in June, till Dec 31. I put in a 2nd extension application on Dec 8th, well mailed it out. I know I was cutting it very close. I still have not heard back, and its officially 3 months. I try to call the...

ok, thank you for the information! Also what about the surveys? Since I put down a Canadian address (for them to send the check to) Does that imply that im trying to earn money under the impression of being a Canadian? Its not just a Canadian based website tho, Its mainly based in the US (Canada...

Hello! I'm an American Citizen, visiting in Canada for the last year (living with my fiance as we prepare to get married and go through the immigration process) Since I do not have a work visa, I cannot work. Living on 1 income with bills and trying to afford the up-comming immigration process...

Awesome, Thank you! :)

Can we apply immediately after we married, or do we need to wait until we get our marriage certificate? (I heard that can take up to 3 months to arrive) Also...if we have to wait until we get our marriage certificate, would I be able to get an extension as I wait? My wedding will be in Mid...

Ok, well thank you for your time and input!! It def has helped :)

Ok thank you for clearing that up. See, my child lives full time with his father. We only have documentation through a notary of our agreement on that. His father will not let him move to Canada, so my fiance cannot sponsor him (we eventually plan to have my fiance move to the US when our...

I agree, the *only* down side for me applying outland is then I would have to get my son a medical exam, he lives with his father (we dont have any legal write ups, just one with a notary that we have agreed on, that he will live in the US. Thing is tho, if i apply from in Canada but do it...

Ok, got it! Also on a un related note, how much does it cost to sponsorship from within Canada? (My fiance and i are thinking of doing it from Within Canada now) I know its $75 for the application fee and $550 for the sponsorship but there is also a principle application fee too of $475 , not...

Hello everyone! Im a little confused on something, my fiance and I will be getting married soon, I'll be returning to the US (Arizona) to do the immigration process outland (my fiance is from Ontario) I just read on the CIC website this, to which confused me some "If you are outside Canada...

Thats good! I feel a lot better now. My fiance even agrees, they cant do anything without proof, and they wouldn't find any as I have done nothing illegal as a visitor.Thank you all for the input and replies! :)

Hello, I have a little situation and I wanted to get some advice. I am engaged to a Canadian citizen, I'm from America. We are planning to get married soon. I am on a visitor extension until late December. I am worried because my fiance and I got into a spat with some of his family, who...

Just a little curious about the inner workings of the CIC. I send out my paper application (and all the things on the checklist and receipt) for a visitor extension in April. Called the post office so I know it has arrived. How long does it take for them to get to it? To see it? What if they...

Just wondering what other people's experiences where? I filed for my extension as a visitor. I sent the application, all my needed files with the receipt and had it expedited (arrived by April 14th) My passport says my stay is up on May 14th, so once that date roles around i'll be on Implied...

May I ask what "sufficient finances" are? My fiance makes $11 an hour, approximately 40 hours a week, about $350 - $400 a week. Would this be sufficient in the CIC's requirements for him to support me?
