Hello there, I'm trying to fill out the Application to change conditions, extend my stay or remain in Canada as a worker. Under the Coming Into Canada, question number 4 asks me "If Applicable, provide the document number of the most recent Visitor Record, Study Permit, Work Permit or Temporary...

Yes ! I feel the same way. I think that is why I'm having a hard time making friend. Canadians are nice because they smile and say hello, but nothing more than that. Are you not lonely? How is your experience there?

What is Canadian culture? What can i do to be immersed into it?

Where do you suggest to find these community events? I feel like I get scared because I feel like such an outsider. I can't talk so fast, but everyone else do.

I think i'm just not sure where and how exactly I can start making Canadian friends. Do you have any suggestions? I'm also scared that they might reject me.

My family moved to a very small town in Nova Scotia and there are almost no minorities here. I feel a bit lonely and don't know what to do... Anyone on same situation? I want to know what you did :(

We are hoping he will not experience any problems at the border but better stay prepared. He is certainly aware of having to leave before he falls out of status so just a matter of proving that I guess :) tusind tak

We are just wondering what the explanation should be on why he is in Canada for six months if he has a return ticket at that time. Especially if we did not want to volunteer information on our application to sponsorship unless asked.

Providing proof...a ticket going home after 6 months or money in our account showing we are able to purchase a ticket should be enough, ya? Well his intention is of course to gain the work permit after 4-6 months and be able to stay. If that is declined then yes he will leave. You are...

But are we really separately living if he is gone for 3-4-5 weeks? Wouldn't it make sense to go home to family for that amount of time before applying when you consider he has to stay in the country for a minimum of 12 months afterwards? He will still be having his address here, receiving...

Thanks! We're pretty sure we are gonna go with inland route once he come back. Not sure if you'd know but would the border officers be fine with him coming in without a return ticket saying he is going to apply for in-land? What documents is required from him to show at the border? He is...

oh yes. We're definitely applying the OWP WITH the inland sponsorship app. :)

The requirement for common-law sponsorship is that we have lived together consecutively for one year, which we are able to prove. We are both lawful citizens of our countries without any debt and have lots of proof for our relationship, cohabitation and shared expenses. What other difficulties...

Thank you for your response. We are now very clear that we do not want to misrepresent. So, the requirement for common law sponsorship is to live together consecutively for one full year and that it is okay to live apart after that and still be able to apply once we live together again. Should...

OK. We understand the risk involved in sending off the application before or during the time my boyfriend is away from Canada and we are certain now that that's not a risk we want to take. So now, we just have to choose between applying once he's back or take the outland route. Do you know by...

Sorry, that was my mistake for causing the confusion. He applied for "remain the status as a visitor" and a worker.. (I have fixed now). We just did not want to wait another two month, because I am a student with only a part-time job and we cannot afford to do that.. Do you have any other...

We're ready to send off the application now if that's something we can do, but honestly, we thought we could apply few days after he left and that should be no problem since a) they won't know that he left Canada and b) they won't be receiving and processing the application for the next few...

Hi everyone, my name is Naya Choi and I'm a naturalized Canadian citizen and the sponsor of my boyfriend Tobias, a citizen of Denmark. Please help us get through this nightmare of un-answered questions that are causing so much stress :( thank you for reading in advance, and thank you for...
