Thank you! Yes, I am. I am hoping that when we explain the situation to the officer at the border, they would be understanding. Thanks!

Hi everyone, I am looking for some help with information and thoughts visitor visa extension. Quick background - My partner (Canadian) and I (EU citizen, visa exempt for Canada) applied for outland (London, UK) common law PR back in December last year. We had to come to Canada quicker...

Thanks, just did as advised! Could you please advise if we should order the GCMS notes? My partner is the overly anxious type and I think the wait is driving him mad.

Hi everyone, My partner and I applied outland (London, UK) in December 13th. I passed my medical exam on the 3rd of Marcg. We haven't had any information/updates from the CIC since the end of March. Long story short, due to work commitments on my partners side, we had to move to Canada in mid...

Hi everyone, We are moving to Canada in two months time (yay!) and I wanted to ask you for advice. We applied outland (from London, UK) for permanent residence permit (common law) in mid December. So far the cic has been very prompt - we got an update for passed medical just a few days after...

Thanks - my thoughts exactly! I just send a note with the corrected UCI, don't think it would make any difference but the two posters above worried me, hence I thought it's better to cover all bases.

Thanks everyone. I truly don't think it is/could be much of an issue and whoever is looking at the application would realise and dismiss it/correct it accordingly and if they do have an issue, I suppose the worst that could happen is resend the form for me to put my UCI rather than my partner's...

Hi everyone, I just submitted my Schedule A and realised although filling out everything correctly (using the right application number etc) I have put down my partner's UCI rather than mine. Should I contact CIC and explain or leave it as is? It was uploaded from my account, my name is...

Hi there, thanks! I managed to find the same threads yesterday and somehow magically succeed on my 14th attempt! YAY I would advice you to make as many accounts as you can and keep track of the attempt combinations you've made. I was too worried and wasn't willing to wait and hope that I would...

Hi everyone, My partner and I applied for Permanent residence under the common law partner class. I just received an email from CIC with details about linking our application to an online account. I have already tried doing so three times unsuccessfully and am worried that I would be locked out...

Thank you so much again!!!!!

Thanks so much! The website is definitely very finicky! Just to check again, when we paid the Application fee we were given a receipt number. That receipt number cannot be used for checking the application status, right? The Unique Client Identified and/or File Number that will be provided by...

Oh my, that’s a fair bit of time. Thanks! I remember reading somewhere on the CIC website that it takes up to five days and therefore was starting to worry. Just to make sure I understood everything fully, we would not received an email prior the 6 to 8 weeks period to link the application...

Hi everyone, My partner and I applied for Outland common law sponsorship on the 8th of December. We used courier service from, London U.K. and therefore were able to see that the application has been signed for in Mississauga on the 11th of December. We are now waiting for receive an email...

Yes, I have basically kept everything down as well. So far, we have added: 20 pages of WhatsApp logs and emails, letters from family and friends, wedding invitations for both of us, 15 pictures of us together, booked flights and hotel for family holiday this year for Christmas, booked flights...

Thanks so much everyone! We are nearly ready to submit the application! Only thing I am uncertain of is the of amount of photos and personal communication we can submit. It seems that CIC says "no more of 20 photographs" but I really don't know what rule applies for email/texts between the two...

A few years back (when there was no eTAs for Bulgaria) I was given a valid 10 year Canadian visa. I have another 5 years left on it so luckily won't have to bother with the eTA.

Thank you! That is a really good point, I guess we will brace ourselves and hope for the best. One more question. Did your SO have to obtain a medical exam at all? The CIC seems to allude that not everyone is required to have it and we would be given that information at a later point.

Congrats on the DM! And thank you so much!!! If it is okay to ask, how long were you and your significant other together for before filling the application? Also, are you from visa exempt country/have multiple entry visa and did you submit joint lease agreement, utility bills, medical...

Thanks so much for the quick response!!! Do you know what is the likelihood of London being selected as the processing office rather than my home country? I cannot find any definite answers on the CIC website. Our case is fairly straightforward and hope that we would be able to get the PR in...
