HI when I was entering Canada in July from the USA they gave me a exclusion order because they believe I was planning on living in Canada without submitting the proper paper work first at the time of my exclusion order I wasn't married I was only in a common law marriage since my exclusion order on 9-21-2011 we were married with our daughter we have together she is one years old. He had to go back to Canada due to work and I am here in the USA I haven't yet submitted my application due to money issues but now I have the money just double checking my application and hoping to be home before my exclusion order says I can I'm not suppose to return Canada until July of 2012. So I'm not sure if I need to also apple for an ARC or just submit my paper work in. ANd also I was wondering how long this process could take before I am home with my husband? This whole thing has really brought a lot of hurt to our daughter and I really hope and pray I get to have her 2nd birthday with her family in Canada with me by her side as well. Being how her first birthday was spent with me in the states because I didn't want to over stay my time in Canada to begin with so I had went back to the states last year for 6 months so as you can see we have spent alot of time apart and my daughter is the one getting hurt by all this. I was going to submit a letter with my application explaining to them how this has effected my daughter but not sure if I should any help or inputs on this would be a great help
