Hello, I already finished the sponsorship and my wife is in Canada and is a permanent resident. I need to get a marriage certificate to send to CRA for tax purposes. Knowing that we got married oversees, what’s the best and simple way to get the certificate? Are we now somehow registered in...

Hi Loren27, you know I don't remember all the details, but I quizzed my wife just now and what she remembers is that we received a letter online asking to go do the biometrics. then, in the following month we received the letter asking to go do the medical visit, and that one she had to pay the...

Don’t know exactly but for sure less that in Canada. Not comparable and not reaching the minimum they put in TD1. I’ll call CRA to ask them. Thanks.

do you mind sharing some links or indicate where to go and read and find out more about such incentives please?

If recall many many years ago when I came to Canada, someone was telling me about either not filing or not paying taxes for 3 years or something like that. Can’t remember. But for sure when I’ll go to do mine with an accountant I’ll tell him about my wife. As far as benefits, what do you mean...

I found the thread below that talks about a similar situation to mine: https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/indicate-that-your-married-in-your-tax-return-if-your-spouse-hasnt-arrived-yet.189280/#post-2964430

To be honest I’m a bit confused, or I m the have asked the question to on properly. What I know is that being single or married with a house wife is not the same for taxes.

Canadian citizen and husband here. I sponsored my wife to bring her to Canada and for her PR last year. She landed in October 2019. Does she need to file her first tax declaration soon, for her 2019 months living in Canada? She didn’t work. Thanks.

Thought it’s not the same thing being married or single in terms of taxes....

Hi, I would like to know if I can claim back some credit and extra returns on my taxes. It would be nice to know if there are people who already have experience with this situation? Here the situation, I’m a Canadian citizen who lives in Canada. In summer 2018 I went overseas and married my...

Sorry, late replying here, I was away. We connected through Montreal to Calgary with about 3-4 hours layover and we barely made it, seconds to catch the next flight. It'll depend on each situation but I would say plan for the worst. Also, they didn't send the luggage on the same flight with...

My credit card doesn't cover trip cancellations and delays, only some medical, conditioned that the traveler is departing from Canada. In all cases, nothing applies to my wife. I called to get some estimate and it's like $100 for for a week, more or less.

Didn't think about it, I'll check with my VISA credit car maybe there is something free !

Good to know, not the end of the world if we're delayed in Montreal :) , the most important is done.

They might have sent me something to my email but i know I do have problems with my Hotmail and missed many important messages, including government one after I called on the phone for something else they told me they emailed me then forwarded me their previous email that I never seen in my...

Not sure what’s the letter of pre-arrival. We received a couple message when logging online to he account. The message/letter was asking to drop the passport. So my wife did go to the visa office and now waiting to get a call back to pickup the passport. Once she picks it up then I think that’s...

You mean if I miss the flight then they might or might not load it and end up either lonely or delayed in Calgary? I think I had a similar experience last time I flew through Toronto where they didn't send the luggage and had to wait a day or tow after that to get it.

Thanks folks for the replies and help. We might take a chance and hope that it won’t take too long.

Montreal wouldn’t be the final destination. We’ll be just connecting through. Normally all the luggage (other than carry-ons) will transit through and not be picked up yet.

Maybe I didn’t quite understand “it takes maybe 30 mins to declare pr and sort your goods to follow”? What goods?
