Thanks Bryanna for your response. The visitor does not have a Super Visa but does have a good track record of leaving Canada before the visa expires. In a period of about 6 years, the visitor has gone back to their home country 2 times for a few months and then return to Canada for another...

Hello everyone, I’ve been reading about visitors to Canada prolonging their stay by making an application to extend their visa and CIC approving if the reasons are compelling. However, I’m curious to know if there’s a limit on the number of extensions CIC grants? I ask because I know someone...

Thanks for the feedback. Just so that I’m clear. If they don’t need to formalize the custody arrangement (because both parents are sharing custody with no issues), what custody papers must the applicant for PR submit? The document checklist does say: “Custody papers of dependent children....if...

Thanks Allura71 for your reply. It helps. In this case, the parents are separated, never married but were common-law and share custody of a child. No disagreements. They haven’t formalized the custody arrangements with the court but it seems they’ll have to do it if one of the parents wishes to...

Hello everyone, This may be a silly question but I'd like to know what exactly should the Custody papers include? "Custody papers for dependent children from a previous marriage or relationship, if applicable" I know this is a standard document required in various permanent residence...

Hi tinacraigg, Hopefully you're getting closer, otherwise they wouldn't ask for your dependents' updated medicals. By the way, is your daughther in Canada or abroad?

beautifulbutterflies, I'm sorry to hear about your situation but the 1st thing you need to do is accept responsibility. You did do something wrong; you violated the conditions of your study permit by dropping out of school and that's a serious offense. You should've notified CIC of any changes...

hello noblekishor, but what about if the dependents are with the principal applicant in Canada, would CIC still request re-doing medicals to the dependents? garryking; are your dependents in Canada or abroad? JB

Congratulations Leazy. ...not to make you nervous but if your pregnancy is showing by the time you do your landing and the Immigration Officer notices and asks if you declared being pregnant, what will you say? Applicants for PR are required to update CIC of any changes in their personal...

....basically, what I'm trying to say is that I learned that the parents sponsorship process has two steps: - 1st to asses the sponsor (for which I had a UCI#, ecas shows sponsorship application) - 2nd to assess the people being sponsored (a separate UCI#, ecas shows PR applic) ...so TP, I...

hello roop15, The Visa office was in Mexico City. During the application, their website stated that the approx. processing time was 56 months but it actually took 67 months; from CIC receiving the application to granting PR. I was aware that my application was caught up in the whole backlog...

hello everyone, here is my timeline. ecas showed: sponsorship applic. received March 2008 started processing applic. Aug.2013 medicals received Nov.2013 decision made (parents landed Sept.2014) In January 2012, I was approved as a sponsor and the file was sent to the Visa office of our country...

Hi Yeoj, A friend got that same message early this year and her PR application was approved. Are you inland or outland? and what category did you applied to?

Thank you for your responses. Yes, that's what I thought until someone in this forum (cannot remember the thread) mentioned they were nominated and were immediately buying their flights to come to Canada. I don't think they had a job offer or a closed work permit so it was a bit confusing...

Hello everyone, Can a Provincial Nominee living outside of Canada apply for an Open Work Permit from abroad? (let's assume that this nominee does not have a job offer, and already applied for PR and is waiting for PR). If it is possible, how long would the permit be for? thanks for your...

hi, I would have to say that it is likely. You already showed CIC your intentions to living in Canada permanently by applying for PR in the past and they could be concerned that you won't leave Canada once your studies are completed. If you're now deciding to apply for a Study Permit, you...

Hello Sara75, As PMM stated, English as a Second Language students are not eligible to work-off campus. It seems that Service Canada made a mistake by giving you a SIN #. please read the last paragraph below from the Canada Gazette -Regulations Amending the Immigration and Refugee Protection...

hello, As per the new rules, your study permit will expire after 90 days of completing the program If you finish in one year, you will definitely not get a work permit for 3 yrs.

Hi,.......my neighbor's son is in this situation and was surprised the NS office requested the update after 8 months of nomination. His PR application is at the "in process" stage.

hi, I recently heard that someone who was nominated late 2013 by NS under this stream was asked by NS office to provide an update on his job status even though the stream did not require job offers. The applicant has already applied for PR and has not heard from CIC yet. ...has any one heard...
