Outland Application - We (my wife is British and I'm Canadian) applied June 23rd, Sept 23rd Sponsor approved (Decision Made) and info sent to London. On the Perm resident part, it says Application received. I've read a few places online that it could take up to 11 months for the 2nd part...is...

Couple of questions around 'life' in British Columbia while waiting for PR to be approved: 1> Medical - From what I understand, you need a SIN number to then get a Care Card, which then gives you access to a doctor, etc? What have people done to ensure they have medical coverage while waiting...

Great...thanks a bunch!

Thanks...that's what we figured. I'm assuming the agents will be fine... has anyone been rejected entrance? And if so, what did you do?

Another question... So we are now married and the Visa application is in process (outland from UK). She is technically in Canada on a Visitor Visa and not working/no school/etc. We have planned to leave Canada to go on a honeymoon in the US this summer before her PR is approved. Is she...

So thanks again for everyone that has provided info in the past. We are now married and my now-wife is heading back to London where she will start her Outland Visa Application with our official marriage certificate and documents. She'll be back in Canada in a few months permanently...even if...

Thanks for your advice Allura (nice name btw)... The point the Consultant was making was that if we entered together, she may be able to get a Work Permit sooner...that's all... Just to clarify, once married, my wife can get the entire Outland process sorted without ever going back to London...

Outland vs Inland I know everyone is saying to do the Outland method, however I am a bit confused (this feels like it should be much easier)...here's why... So, let's assume my fiancé comes on a trip from London and we get married in Canada. Does she have to go back to London to get the...

Thanks everyone...sounds like we have a good discussion going here....but here's a curveball... So, I was talking to an Immigration Consultant who recommended leaving Canada, then re-entering together. i.e.: if my wife (British) and I (Canadian) were both to leave Canada and get married in the...

Thanks to everyone... this helps a ton. Re: healthcare - anyone know about specifics in BC? ie: if she's here, not PR yet, not working. My employer doesn't actually cover my MSP (BR Provincial Healthcare), I do. I pay about $70 a month and can increase to $125ish if we register a 'family'...

Also, is she able to do unpaid volunteer work?

Thanks... you are saving me tons of time...much appreciated. I'm in Alberta a fair bit for work, so next time I'm there, I owe you beers! Sorry, a couple other questions: 1. When she comes to Vancouver, is it okay for her to book a one-way flight? or should she book a return even if the...

Thanks Becki, that helps a lot. We are both divorced and have been officially for over a year (me - 14 months, she - 4 years). Do I still need to get the certificate of non-impediment? Does she need one? Once we are married, even though she is unable to work, does she still receive medical...

I'm assuming this post has been started/answered somewhere, however I apologize in advance as I couldn't find it. So here goes: Situation - My fiancé (over 30 yrs old) is British and currently lives in London - I'm Canadian (over 30 yrs old) and live in Vancouver - We have been going back and...
