Thanks for your response! No particular reason, I'm just not sure how they assess applications and whether my 1 year cohabitation would be a factor compared to a 20 year marriage for example. I believe I was able to provide sufficient evidence. I didn't know I could request GCMS notes, that's...

Hi! I've submitted my inland spousal sponsorship application 9 months ago and they're still processing it - I've done my medical tests and clarified a few forms, that's all. No idea what else needs to be done besides biometrics which I haven't received an invitation to do yet. I applied as...

On one of the form questions, it asks us to enter the date we entered in the common-law relationship. Looked it up on the instructions for help and it specifies that it's NOT the date we started living together, but the 'the date your status officially changed from being single to common-law."...

My partner and I have been in a relationship for 3 years and living together for 1 year and 9 months. What do we need to do for Canada to recognize us as 'common law'? CRA has classified us as common-law, does that mean the federal government will also classify us as common-law, so I can place...

Thank you!

I'm applying for spousal sponsorship and am on my post-work graduate work permit. I'm afraid that my post work graduate work permit will expire before I get my PR through spousal sponsorship. Should I apply for a open work permit with my spousal sponsorship application, would I be eligible? I...

Thanks! Thanks! Just received confirmation from her that she had a second diploma which makes sense now.

Hi, I recently submitted my express entry application and received a lower score than I expected. I compared it to my friend's points (who is now a PR) that has the same experience as me (high school diploma, post-secondary degree in Canada, worked for 1 full year) But, she received 38 points...
