Alright, thank you!

Exactly 1 year after we submitted our application for permanent residency through spousal sponsorship we finally got the invitation to the landing interview in Etobicoke and couldn't be happier! :) However, I am wondering about one thing: I am supposed to bring the receipt for the Right of...

And this is the answer via Email that I got 10 days later. It would be funny if I would not be so stressed out. Getting someone on the phone is impossible, too. "Good day, Thank you for contacting Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC). We are sorry that you are experiencing...

So, this is what I wrote in the webform: "Dear Sir or Madam, I submitted my application for permanent residence via mail and successfully linked it to my online account. There, I was asked to submit multiple police certificates. I have gathered all the neccessary certificates (5 pages in total...

Maybe this helps someone with the same problem: On the page where you can submit a help desk inquiry on the CIC website, at the bottom after you have filled out all the fields, it reads: "After you click "Next", you will have the opportunity to upload your document(s)." They are restricted to a...

Hello, I have submitted my application (on paper) last month and have successfully created an account on the CIC website. My application is linked to the account, and I got a request for police certificates. I need multiple certificates including translations and affidavits, but I could only...

Hello there, I got asked to provide police certificates. In the document they ask to "provide this for every family member, whether accompanying you to canada or not". Unfortunately I could not find the answer to the following question in the guide: Does this mean I need police certificates...

Do i have to put a tick in the medical section to confirm i read the box? I understand that they will send me to have a medical done afterwards, but I have not put a checkmark in that box as there is nothing for me to do at this point. thanks

Thank you very much! One more question: On the CIC Website where the forms for the Open Work Permit are it is stated that the application should be send to Alberta. But since i am including the OWP application with my Permanent Resident application i will send everything combined in one...

Hello, I was advised in this forum that if i am applying inland for permanent residency and my (already extended) visitors visa will run out soon after i have sent out the application, I should apply for an open work permit together with my permanent residency application to get implied status...

Thank you, that helped! (What country specific guide are you talking about? Did i miss something? The Document Checklist mentions letters as one form of proof of relationship...)

Would it be OK to validate and print the form with the letter "a" in the last name in place of "ä", and then just adding the dots by hand with a pen?

Thank you very much. Forgive my ignorance please, but i have to ask: I am -at the same time- not supposed to leave Canada after i applied inland, *and* supposed to leave Canada if i did not also apply for an OWP? Like so many things in this process, this leaves me confused...

The friends and family letters to support your common-law relationship. What should be in them? Just something like "I know both X and Y, and can attest to that they have a genuince relationxhip since XXX?" And do they need to get notarized?

Thank you very much for the answers so far! Did i understand this correctly, i ONLY have implied status if i apply for an open work permit, too? Also, can i even apply for another extension of my visitors Visa? I mean, it already got extended for 1 year last year... And what happens if my...

I came to Canada from Germany last year in February as a visitor to stay with my common-law partner. I applied successfully for an extension of my Visitors Visa and it got extended until May 2017. We achieved official common-law status February 2017, started the paperwork and are about to send...

So to verify the generic application form and generate the barcode-pages i had to spell out my (german) last Name with "ae" in place of "ä". This is a common way of doing this, but in my Passport it is of course written with the german "ä". I added a note explaining this, but now am unsure how...

Alright, will do. Thanks guys!

Quick question: Is it OK to print out the 20 proof-pictures required with a normal printer on paper? I was planning to print 2 pictures on one page, with a little note on the bottom of each stating date and location.

Thank you very much, that helps! I have a police report from germany 4 weeks before i left the country. Since then (1 year) i have been living in canada. Do i still need a new police report from germany? (I hardly could have commited any crimes in germany while being in canada)
