    Almost certainly losing my PR... please help!

    Thank you for your reply - I'll get the process started then. I doubt I could get PR again, as I got it the first time through working in Canada. I'll be almost 40 by the time I finish my PhD, so much too old to go back and get a working holiday visa. But, who knows, maybe the PhD will open...

    Almost certainly losing my PR... please help!

    Thank you for your response. That's very disappointing, but not surprising. So should I contact them now to let them know what is happening? As I know I won't meet the PR requirements, is it better for me to start the revocation process straight away, and from the UK? I definitely want to avoid...

    Almost certainly losing my PR... please help!

    I'll just give a little background to my situation (tldr at end): I received my PR in early 2016. In late 2016, I was offered (and I accepted) a year long contract Spain. I was meant to move straight back to Canada after that year, but ended up going back to the UK to do an MA in order to...

    Tax time: resident or non-resident for tax purposes

    Hi! Thanks for your response. I am a little confused by what you are saying, though. I know that I have to do a tax return. My issue is whether I would lose residency if I say that I am a non-resident for tax purposes. Also, just one or two secondary ties aren't necessarily enough to mean that...

    Tax time: resident or non-resident for tax purposes

    But then there is the argument on this thread: http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/canadian-pr-holder-living-and-working-in-us-needs-to-file-tax-to-canada-t471853.0.html ... which is basically what my tax advisor is saying. So confusing! I wish there was a...

    Tax time: resident or non-resident for tax purposes

    Hi Torontosm, Thank you for your reply. I appreciate your response. I just wanted to add that since I posted, my tax specialist has emailed me to say that she thinks that I would lose my PR if I become a non-resident for tax purposes as it is in effect cutting my ties with Canada. She has based...

    Tax time: resident or non-resident for tax purposes

    Hi, I got PR at the beginning of 2017 and I left Canada in September to work in Spain. In the summer I'm moving to England for a year and then planning on returning to Canada in September 2019. I don't have significant ties to Canada (no house, spouse, dependents). I just had a couple of...

    No visa sticker issued with Confirmation of Permanent Residence

    I just got my Confirmation of Permanent Residence letter yesterday. Woo hoo! They returned my passport (Australian) along with the letter but there was no visa sticker inside the passport. I'm confused because I thought that Australians required a visa sticker. I was planning on going to the...

    Need URGENT help on filling Schedule 4A Provincial Nominees

    I just got the same letter. It's really confusing as I have no idea how to complete Schedule 4A - I don't work for myself. So is the consensus that I should write a covering letter explaining that I don't own a business?
