hello, shesosilly! I am personally waiting till I'm done. In my opinion that would/could cause delays at some point knowing their work-style, especially if you want to change your name on your passport. You would have to send copies of your new passport to them and that doesn't always get...

I'm not 100% sure about the following, but I think there's a certain amount of time you have to be living in the country (if I'm not mistaken it's 120 days, can't remember exactly), and also only one person in the family is eligible for GST. They took our GST away even tho my husband is the only...

it's very normal :) in order to attend the school u will need a study permit

Congrats, now u're good to go get the MSP ;))

If you are willing to wait for your OWP, you will have absolutely no problem getting MSP. However, you are far in the process already (as I see you applied for PR in September 2013) and I don't think it would even be a problem getting MSP now. I'm an October 2013 applicant, I had no problems...

Hi NorthDakota22!! I feel so bad for u wasting your money for such lawyer!! I am almost in exact same situation, in Canada since 2012 on work/study permits, submitted sponsorship application back in October 2013. My last work permit expired on April, 2014, since then I am not working cause I...

Absolutely agree!

Yes, he's willing to leave voluntarily, but once the inland application is submitted you're not advised to leave at all. I know some ppl have no problem coming back into Canada even during inland, but just the whole situation that he's into sounds like a red flag to me, having no status, leaving...

If you have no legal status anymore and you're gonna try to re-enter, please consider that you might have a big chance to be refused! CIC does not require to have a legal status, but CBSA does!! Being out of status, leaving country and trying to re-enter with your inland application being in...

how long ago you've lost your status? you have 90 days to restore it

I know it looks overwhelming when you see the forms and everything, but once u start filling it out it gets easier to understand what/where/why :) There's also a step by step guide that helps a lot, and for you I think it shouldn't be a problem to understand stuff as you're from Ireland, lots of...

I got my restoration in a week. At the time it was at 16 days for online processing, maybe processing times have increased today i'm not sure

They are correct, you must apply for a restoration ASAP, you have only 90 days to do so and you have wasted a month already or more. Make sure you explain them why you failed to extend your status in time. On top of that you'll have to pay $200, instead of $100

lately, or haven't been watching at all? ;) i'm sure she meant the situation in ukraine

Don't get me wrong, I did not have any intentions to offend yours nor your accountants decisions. Wish you only the best with your case

charmainefrances, I can not imagine how happy you must be now :) congratulations, you made it! 4 years sounds terrible to me, but again, congrats your journey is over :)

She told you not to pay it and while you are waiting for the answer from CRA you're getting charged the interest (2% maybe sounds little to you, but I don't wanna overpay a single penny for those kind of 'accountant' suggestions). I wouldn't wanna owe anything to CRA while on my sponsorship...

That is correct. Same thing happened to me and my husband, we ended up paying back our GST. I was confused about the base year of 2012, as we were not married then, but the call representative explained me that in order to pay us for the period of 2013 JULY to 2014 JUNE they had to look at 2012...

Sophie, you need a translation find yours at http://www.icbc.com/driver-licensing/moving-bc/Documents/Approved-translators.pdf

If you're on IEC at the moment, you wouldn't be able to extend it anyways under any condition. As I understand your work visa expired already? I wouldn't be too worried about the online status, as CIC is working on applications received in June, so you'll have to wait for your turn a little...
