A friend of mine holds an Australian passport and is visiting Canada right now. They are a self-employed international consultant/coach and would like to hold classes here in Canada with the course fees being remitted to overseas accounts. They have been admitted into Canada as a visitor and...

Thanks a lot Goku!

I have been in Canada for more than three years since October 19, 2015. I had no income in 2015 and still filed an income tax return with the CRA. I filed income tax returns with the CRA for 2016 and 2017 also, but I had substantial income to report in those years. Can I use my 2015 tax...

Thank you so much, guys!

I have applied for an extension of my Mom's temporary resident status. Her status expires on August 2nd, but according to processing times quoted on the IRCC website, we will probably not receive a decision on the application until August 25th. The rules say your status is valid until the day...

I am a permanent resident and want to apply for my Mom's super visa. She already has a temporary resident visa, which allows her to visit me for six months at the most. I have a couple of questions, and would really appreciate if somebody can answer them: 1. My Mom is currently in Pakistan...

I am a permanent resident. My Mom has a visitor visa for Canada, and has been visiting me here since June. She wants to apply for an extension of her temporary resident status, so she can be here for another year before going back home. Her reason for staying is to support me in my day to day...

I thought about that, but isn't that illegal? I do pay my phone bill and Internet bill every single month, but is that sufficient? I have other expenses, e.g. hair cut, eating out, etc. But, she does the groceries, which is the major portion of the bill. I think if I were clear as to whether...

I landed as a permanent resident in October 2015, and have been working for a company in Los Angeles remotely from my place in Edmonton, Alberta. I pay rent each month (and the lease is in my name), and I use my credit card to pay all my bills. My Mom lives with me, and she is an authorized...

I am a permanent resident. My Mom got a temporary resident visa and she decided to visit me. Now, she would like to stay in Canada for a longer time frame, but my income isn't high enough right now for me to apply for her super visa. If she had a visit visa for the US, would it be possible for...

Thanks a lot, 2_of_5!

I became a permanent resident in October 2015. I had applied for permanent residence as an Information Systems Analyst and Consultant (NOC Code: 2171) Soon after I became a permanent resident, I had deep thoughts about changing careers, and have decided to go in that direction. I am working to...

Thank you, everybody! It makes sense that the primary objective of health records as part of RQ is to validate the residency requirement. It seems that the odds seem to be in my favor. I suppose the only question/issue I still have is whether a person has any say in what a hospital or clinic...

Hello everybody, I am a Pakistani citizen facing a difficult situation right now. I have bipolar disorder. Unfortunately, for fear of refusal, I didn't disclose it when I submitted my PR application, nor did I disclose it during my medical examination. I entered Canada and became a permanent...

Thank you for sharing your experience. It helped, knowing that most would agree that there will be no issues. I would love to hear a story similar to mine, where the medical condition wasn't disclosed to CIC, and it was disclosed to medical practitioners in Canada after receiving PR status.

I had applied as a Federal Skilled Worker last year and have already received my permanent resident visa and Confirmation of Permanent Residence. I will be flying to Canada in two weeks. I have had an excellent educational and employment record. I had completed my undergraduate studies in...
