Question: If someone has migraited to Canada under family class and included their children on their application...what is the process when the children are adults. I am trying to help a family friend with her papers. She is already in Canada and has been for about a year plus. She is trying to...

Hello ladies, no problem with the sharing. Everyone's experience will be different...as we are different and our men are different. Some will have smoother transitions than others..but still good to be prepared as the one thing my husband still says is...I wish I had been prepared for the fact...

Hello All, We are wondering about the process to bring someone over as a nanny. My husband and I would like to bring my mother in law over to be a live in nanny for our kids. We would prefer not to bring in someone strange...we'd like our kids to be with family if they are not with us. Can...

Hey everyone. I always wished when we were in the application process, that more people would come back after their husbands got here and share what it was like settling in Canada...so I figured we would. We arrived in Canada January 2012. I had lived and worked in Jamaica for years before we...

Hey just wanted to say..don't give up! Even if the interview ends with ultimately bad news...the good news is their is always appeal processes. I know of a few couples who had nightmare experiences with immigration. In fact my best friend was telling me about a couple who had nothing but trouble...

Thanks for the congrats all!! I've really enjoyed reading all the replies to my past post...lots of insight. It was interesting to me Charlie D and Suki...to hear about some Jamaicans wanting to live in the country. I guess that it really depends on the person. I'd say on average there would be...

Ok so I'm curious about some information on getting a US visa for my husband so we can go visit my American relatives. We arrived in Canada from Jamaica in January...migraited together although I am already a Canadian citizen as well. I'm finding conflicting information online...some say you...

Hey so happy to read some landing stories and yet more good updates. But I am curious...there are so many new faces on here...but I'm so interested to know how some of the older ones are doing that landed some time back? How are all you guys settled in?How's life? How are the spouses adapting...

Question for a friend. A friend of mine is filing common law...and her spouse has a son back in St Lucia. The mother will not let the son come but he wants to put him on the paper work anyways. So question...when your putting a child on the file to be filed at a later date..what is required to...

Thanks for the info Charlie, and I believe there was another reply as well from Mrs lswn...thank you both!! He is a good guy...hard working..loved his wife like crazy. So he won't be looking financial support from her...he has a good job, and he won't be looking another woman/ let alone wife any...

Hey guys I need your help. I have a friend who immigrated to Canada before us..I think he's been there just over a year now. Anyways everything was great, but upon arriving in Canada his wife decided he wasn't the rough tough type of Jamaican bad boy she wanted and didn't like that he was a...

Wow...this is appalling. I hope Canada immigration reads this and deports you for immigration fraud!! You are the reason the rest of us that marry for love have to go through hell to get our spouses to Canada!! I feel incredibly sorry for your Canadian wife who was brutally used by you, and lied...

Charlie D...I was so excited to come on here and see your update. Girl your time is coming up..so excited your getting updates and hope your case comes to a close and your leaaaaaaaving on a jetplane soon to be with that hubby of yours in this frozen wasteland!! :D ...lol sorry winter and I are...

Well just so your aware..some stuff didn't update in my e-cas till I checked after we landed in Canada. When we had our passport call...all it said was medicals recieved for the longest time. If I remember correctly...it didn't even show in process until after we had our passports already picked...

Loved reading everyones posts!! Some great insight...especially liked hearing from your side of things Charlie..being the Jamaican waiting to go abroad!! LOL...we are in a rural small town currently...perhaps that is part of the problem!

No prob on the honesty!! :) I have seen a few people pretending its amazing...like they feel ashamed to admit its hard...or its not the cloud nine they expected. Alot of people don't know its going to be like this...and there has been people who ran back to the island..or gave up on their...

Mrslswn....I think thats why this is a great topic for this forum. I think so many times those of us who have lived abroad and at one point been happy there..are are currently there and happy and adjusted...in our heads we kinda foolishly just expect that naturally they will just adapt to our...

Thanks CharlieD, and Lovehasnoboundries!! I think everyone should be aware to expect this...perhaps if your prepared it will be expected and not cause such upset to you. I bet this could really take a toll on a marriage if you were expecting pure cloud nine. I'm learning it doesn't mean he...
