This is pretty much all we have to look forward to in the near future, and it feels like it's going to be pushed back longer than the four month timeline. You know... Kinda like, when we applied, they said six months. Now it's seventeen? Yeah exactly. Waited a year, only to be given the...

This has seriously got to be the most unfair and frustrating thing I've ever had to experience. We applied for PR in 2013. Two years ago. We were advised NOT to send our OWP application with the complete package, so we didn't. I sent my husbands OWP on Dec 22, 2014 and it was received the next...

I'm a husband being sponsored from the states, and I'm with DOMINOKITTY on this. I sympathize with PRELOVE about being pregnant, it's a hell of a situation to be in, but my wife, WHO HAS WORKED HER ASS OFF to keep me here, had to spend our last $150 dollars at the time my visitor permit was...

I left them blank.

My American husband has kept in status his entire year and a half here in alberta, through visitor permit extensions, so we applied for the OWP and I actually sent to vegreville the day of (Dec.22). I'll let you know what happens when we find out!

Does anyone know if my husband would be able to apply for a drivers learners permit in Alberta? I noticed on the website all it says you need are "Individuals must be legal residents of Canada and Alberta (Note: To obtain an Alberta driver’s licence or identification card you must provide proof...

"The 12 MP's who are on the Standing Committee on Citizenship and Immigration spend most of their time discussing immigration and refugee issues. They make decisions on what immigration and refugee changes should be introduced to the House of Commons. Incredible as it may sound, they spend...

I hear you. I'm 21 already in so much debt because of this, about to be in even more for school starting in september so i can afford to support me and my husband while we wait even longer! I'll be done my course before we hear back from CIC. All we can do is hang in there right... This whole...

We only have AOR as well, no AIP or anything else. Almost positive I can't add him to my benefits at any job I would have, but he still does have his own alberta health card.

I'm not sure, I know all we had to bring to the registry was my husbands visitor extension paper and his passport, and they added him to my Alberta Health account as a spouse, and he got his own card and number in the mail, but it has an expiry date on it (which is the same date his visitor...

Thank you both for the answers. People have been telling me the US sponsorship is more immediate, quicker, and with more proven results. I was having a hard time really even believing or considering this, since I heard the same thing about the Canadian one and look where we are now. ::) i'm...

Does anyone know if filing a petition for US sponsorship while we're both in Canada would effect our canadian sponsorship at all? My husband doesn't want to do this anymore, and all I'm doing every day is trying to convince him that we just need to keep waiting through this.. We're December 2013...

I am just wondering why it is everyone is talking about their foreign spouses not being able to get a health care card? As soon as you're married you can add yourself onto your canadian spouses health care account, at least in Alberta.. All you need is your visitor extension. My husband got his...

I'm in Edmonton, Alberta... I'd like to help out, is there anyone or any place I can write to to make things known here? I wouldn't know where to start.

Could you give me a few reasons?

I just saw they moved up to July 30th... Getting closer?! This is so tough and nobody in mine or my husbands life is going through the same thing. We think we're crazy, having to go through all of this and live this half life of doing nothing and waiting and having no money because one of us...

Does anyone know anything about visitor visa extensions? I sent mine at the beginning of June as my husbands expires August 13th... I saw on CIC the processing date was June 1st and it has moved backwards to May 13th...? -_-

Hello! I've been reading this forum for almost a year now and it's about time I made an account I think haha. I am a Canadian Citizen who filed for sponsorship of my American husband in December of 2013, and haven't heard anything back from CIC besides "Application Received". It's driving us...
