Hello! I am mexican citizen and I just got married with a Canadian Citizen Man, so I am working with all the papers to apply for and extension visitor visa, open work permit and permanent residence. So I have some questions, if someone can help me, I really will appreciate it, thanks a lot.

1. In the form GENERIC APPLICATION FOR CANADA IMM 0008 are asking for a National Identity Document, so in Mexico we use as ID the "Credencial para votar" is and ID to vote in elections, but this document has not an expiry date and filling the form dont let me continue if I dont fill this date., so what I can do??
2. In the checklist IMM 5443 form I need to attach my birth certificate (this document has to be translate to english??)
3. The police certificate has to be attach at the moment that I send the package with all the forms, I am confused with this point, because in the guide IMM 5289 said about the police certificate that I have to wait until immigration office review my case, they wll contact to me asking for this document... so what I have to do?
4. Which is the form for the open work permit ? In the form IMM 1249 that I am using to apply to extend my stay here in Canada has some options in the first part: A Extension of temporary resident status as visitor, B An initial study permit or extension of study permit, C An initial work permit or extension of work permit. So I have to mark the letter A and C??
5. About the feed, I have to pay a feed for the extension of mu status as visitor, another fee for the open work permit, another for the permanent residence, right??

I think are all my questions for now. thanks again for all the help that can give me...

Welcome Wery. I love seeing our list grow everyday.

canadian, I wonder when we will see our 1st April applicant. I am sure we will see them soon. It is funny though.

It sucks that there was no jump today and it I also noticed that it is now taking 10-11 months. That freakin sucks:( I am so pissed. Does anyone know if things start moving quickly again in September? Are the 12 day jumps gone forever?

I am also very happy that today I have hit the 5 month mark. Another 5.5 months to go.
Hello Can u please u please add me to the list .. my app was recieved on april 4,2011 and it was processed on april 21 Thank U..this is so exciting!

YAY, we have our 1st ever April applicant. Welcome to our thread lyrical. You have to promise us to keep up with any updates that you may have.

ZRA, can you give us more info, when was your app received by Vegreville and when it started processing?

Xina, I am sorry, I do not know the answers to your questions. Yo may want to post your questions to the Inland 2010 thread. There are a lot of very knowledgeable people on there.

1: Use your passport as national identity document which has a expedition date an a EXPIRY DATE. This is the document you might use for all your paperwork (la credencial para votar) wont be too helpful.

2: The instruction guide says all documents that are in a language other that ENGLISH or FRENCH MUST been translated to either one.

3: You dont need to attach your police certificate because indeed the immigration officer will requested later after you get first stage approval (AIP). And i do recommend that you wait till they ask you for because you will need both: a state police certificate and a federal police certificate and this last one, if you are applying from in Canada it will need a little extra work from you.
check this link: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/security/police-cert/north-america/mexico.asp

The number 4 and 5 i cannot answered them because im not that wise ;) Lol.

I hope it was helpful Xina and feel free to ask more question or to ask for a second opinion.

Hi All,

Hope you all are still up-to-date your news in this thread and enjoy waiting here ;)). Waiting seems to be so long now with the ones who like me as I can not do anything without permission...so in the meantime, I want to do something at least to improve my profession before I move on the next step. However, in my visitor record there are statement saying that I am not allowed to work or study while waiting until the first approval process. My question is: what about online study? Am I eligible to study online? If I am accepted, then I would go ahead to apply for this course which would be great and perfect to get ready for a new life here (I hope I am accepted by CIC for sponsorship too).

If any of you ever heard about or had the experience with this, please let me know as soon as possible.
Thank you so much for your attention and prompt answer.

Heidy

Hi Heidy,

You can study here even without a student visa as long as you have legal status. I´m under a tourist visa and I´m taking a course at the University of Toronto, french classes and before I got a certificate from Ryerson. The point is that, for some courses, you will pay 2x more just because you are not a resident.
You can´t work until you get your permit but you can try to get volunteer job. And listen, this is VERY important for you in the future because all the companies here will ask you about your "canadian experience".

Go to http://www.volunteertoronto.ca/ and look for available positions. Don´t forget to tell them you are not eligible to work here and you don´t have residence (just to make it clear).

Cheers!

Yooohoooo...thanks a lot for your answer Weerth....I am very much appreciated. Thank heaps for your suggestion regarding working as volunteer. This is a great Idea. I will visit your suggested link and hopefully I could get a volunteer job as I wish.
