When we applied from Australia we used online job applications, correspondence with real estate agents to find us a home on our return, emails from car dealerships regarding vehicles on our return, emails from my sister to say we could stay with her until we found a house, our joint Canadian...

The question is asking about your religious beliefs, not wedding rituals. Do you and your spouse share a common religion? Do you attend church/mosque/synagogue together? Is one of you Catholic and one Jewish? They are not trick questions. Just answer honestly.

Feel free to emigrate to your partner's country if Canada is so backward.

No, if you failed then you did not complete the year. You would round down to 4 years.

If you were in Canada when you got divorced, you will need a Canadian divorce certificate. You can apply to the family court in your province and have your former wife served with the petition in whatever country she lives in. Once the legal divorce is finalised you can remarry and sponsor...

Did she live with her partner for a year? It's not a difficult question really. If not, then she was not common law. If so, then if it were my application I would say yes to the question.

Likely a negative Covid test. OP, I can't see how it would be mandatory. Many jurisdictions (where I live in Western Australia) don't do Covid testing for visa or non-health related reasons, so it wouldn't be possible to get one.

You're not being forced to marry for immigration. You are getting married because you want to be together and marriage is probably the only way you will be able to do that.

Being in a relationship is not the same as being common law. Did she live in a marriage like relationship for 12 months or more with her ex partner? If so then yes she was common law. If not, then no she simply had a boyfriend.

If you apply as single and don't include your common law spouse you will be misrepresenting your relationship. If you become PR and land prior to your common law being declared you can never sponsor them, even if you get married later. No matter what your "personal reasons" are, you must...

My step son was 17 at the time I sponsored my husband and was not interested in coming to Canada with us. My husband included his son as non-accompanying and provided a statement to say that his 17 year old refused to do a medical and that we understand that his son could never be sponsored to...

So,let's see if I have this straight. You say she broke the law and was unhappy with the proceeds of her crime paid by her co-conspirator in her unlawful act, but now wants help in getting a bigger prize for breaking the law?

Yes you can do that. I arrived back in Canada before my husband arrived and he had no problem at all.

If your husband is a Canadian citizen then presumably your (his) child would be a Canadian citizen by descent, so doesn't need to be sponsored. You would only need a citizenship certificate for the baby.

Has he applied for a ETA to visit you in Canada? Is there a way for the 2 of you to live together either in Canada or Philippines for 12 months?

You can check your visa status on the Home Affairs website and print a copy from the VEVO system. https://immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/visas/already-have-a-visa/check-visa-details-and-conditions/check-conditions-online/visa-holders

Of course Canadian residents can be refused entry to the USA. Only US citizens have the right to enter the US - just as only Canadian citizens have the right to enter Canada.

No, you do not count for conjugal. You are married to your husband, so you would apply as married.

Just my 2c worth, but if he's willing to lie about his work history what else is he willing to lie about? If it were me I would tell him either it's 100% honesty or no sponsorship.

I understand that. I worked for 20+ years in specialists' offices in Ontario. However depending on the referral it could be that she's seen within a couple of days/weeks. Even paying for the GP to get the referral would be less expensive (and less likely to find her not able to re-enter...
