    Spousal sponsorship

    Glad to say I received my CoPR! A couple of questions: I assume it's because of Covid-19, but I received no landing interview request. My CoPR instructed me to send the letter along with a photo to process my PR card. How long does it usually take to receive a PR card after you send in the...

    Spousal sponsorship

    So I received my notice of elligibility passed (AIP), my wife's sponsorship had a decision made according to ECAS (although we haven't received any mail about it), and my medical exam was last week and I received notice from the doctor's office that they submitted the information to CIC this...

    2019 Quebec Inland Spouse/Common law sponsorship applicants only

    According to this spreadsheet it seems like no one who applied for PR after July 2019 in Quebec has received AIP yet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Gm315tmNKWoywb7PwZBiE67fUmznYQrNhYVWXPXXJBw/edit#gid=1959864524 You can also see a MAJOR jump in delay in processing the CSQ's after the...

    Denied Common Law now applying spousal. Is my CSQ still good?

    Hi immigration friends, I was unfortunately rejected as a common law partner because I could not produce solid evidence that my partner and I lived together for a year. We have been together 6 years now and during our common law application processing, we got married. So now I am applying...

    Social Assistance

    Hi all, Asking a question on behalf of a friend. Well, they didn't ask me to, I'm just nervous for them. My friend (an American) recently received her permanent residence (a few months ago) under the Famly Class as a spouse. She is being sponsored by her husband, who is from Quebec. He was...

    Refused Common Law -- reapplying as married spouse

    All of your comments are heard loud and clear. I did lose my status about a year ago. I have remained in Canada per the advice of a PM and a lawyer, as my PR application being open made it okay. Now that it's closed, every day I remain is a demerit as far as I can tell. It seems that staying...

    Refused Common Law -- reapplying as married spouse

    Thanks so much for your replies. Very helpful so far. Having overstayed in the past does give rise to some fears for me. If I did apply outland, is it easy to visit my partner while the process is ongoing? Would it be easy to come and go so long as I have proof of employment or some such thing...

    Refused Common Law -- reapplying as married spouse

    I have received the unfortunate news that my common law application was refused on the grounds that we did not have adequate proof of cohabitation. We tried our hardest to prove our case, but our year of cohabitation was more complicated than we initially realized (we lacked the proper proof...

    If refused when should I leave?

    Thanks for all of the replies. When it comes to updating marital status, I should use the IRCC web form, correct? I know that I still have to qualify for common law to be accepted even if we are married. I just want to make sure I update things correctly.

    If refused when should I leave?

    I did have valid status when I submitted everything (I only have about a week to spare when I submitted) My OWP was returned as incomplete very quickly and then I re-submitted it with the missing receipt. During that time I had lost status and not known. 4 months later I was told it was refused...

    If refused when should I leave?

    Whoops, just to clarify, I applied for the OWP with the common law app. Sent it all in together. Not sure if that changes anything.

    If refused when should I leave?

    Sorry, wrote quickly. "implied" is what I meant. I suppose what the MP meant was more that it shouldn't negatively impact my possible next spousal application for staying here despite not having proper "implied" status. Does that sound right? Thanks a lot for the advice. That was the answer I...
