    Refund

    No idea where to put this but here is a fast question. I put in a refund request, didn't send out the application though, so it's just a straight refund. On the website, it says the refund could take 6 weeks, but in the email it says that cheques are typically issued within 2 weeks. The problem...

    Police Certificate Validity

    There is nowhere to be read on the website or in the form for this, if you could find it anywhere it would be useful. The only thing I can find is from the Express Entry, which I know is different...

    Police Certificate Validity

    You are sure? I have seen people send in applications that have been accepted with PCC's older then a year, but they had not been back into that country. Are you sure it is expired, if I have not re-entered the US since?

    Police Certificate Validity

    Hi, I was curious on the validity of a Police Certificate. How long are they good for? I can not find any info on any of the forms for outland spouse sponsor applications. I got one from the US about a year ago, but I haven't been into the US in about 2.5 years. Is it still valid until I re-enter?

    Expiry of status time

    Say your status expires 3/07/19. Can you apply for a visitor extension on 3/06/19? Also, if it says "expires 3/07/19" does that mean you are in status on 3/07/19 or is 3/06/19 your last day of status?

    Common Law = Marriage for US Taxes?

    Is a Common Law partner in Canada married for US tax purposes? I would say no as a Common Law partnership in Canada does not seem to be "denominated" as marriage. Anyone who can help me out? "However, individuals who have entered into a registered domestic partnership, civil union, or other...

    US citizen, Canadian PR - many tax questions

    I do not know if this is 100% true if they can file jointly. I have been pondering this myself and I keep finding mixed information. The IRS claims that you must be in a relationship "denominated"/called as marriage if in a foreign jurisdiction. Common Law is different from marriage in Canada...

    Filling out Sponsor App

    On the IMM 5589, where it says "Class of Application", I am slightly confused. I am currently in Canada with my common law partner, but would like to apply outland as I heard that is slightly better. (I am a US Citizen). Looking through the options, to apply outland, would I tick the last one...

    Visa extension, approved but weird message.

    Hi, I received my answer back on my visitor status extension. I received an approval, but in the acceptance letter I received in a letter email it says "This letter is not valid for travel and is not a permit allowing you to remain in Canada." Does that mean only the one that comes in the mail...

    Country of Residency Date

    Not possible, I can't put a date earlier then today's date. I read somewhere that people write down the date of printing out/validating the form, then send it off that way with a explination.

    Country of Residency Date

    Not able to do that. Since it is a form that has to be validated, it requires you to write an actual date.
