INLAND APPLICATIONS 2012

[screech339]

Hey there! I'm getting married sometime in the next month or two and then the hubby and I plan on doing inland sponsorship.. I have some questions for anyone here who has done this process already...

1. I live in New York and he lives in Ontario ...So can I get electronic fingerprinting done while I'm here in New York? I know electronic is much faster but I've also heard that they only allow the electronic** fingerprinting to be done in Canada...is this true?
2. Also since I plan on doing the inland application...I plan on living there while it's processing and I see most of you have "landed" ....does that mean I have to leave and come back? I'm very confused ???
3. I've seen some that were requested to provide additional information...what sort of information was requested? So I can be prepared. ;D
4. I know they request tax papers from the sponsor...and he only just did his 2011 taxes...will this be a problem?

and one more question because I'm a worry wort
5. He hasn't met my family in person but has met them through FaceTime video chat.....I'm just wondering if this will be a conflict on our application.

Any info you guys can offer would be super! Thanks a million!

Hi Michelle,

1. I am not so sure about it being faster using electronic fingerprints. You need to get a criminal check from FBI to submit it with your application.

2. Once your application is completed, you will be directed to local CIC office in Ontario. Once you get final approval there, you become "landed" thus don't need to leave Canada to do this.

3. If you follow the In Canada Sponsorship guide carefully, you are not likely to be requested for more info. Usually they ask for more info like Police check if not done or Medical Exam if expired or not completed. It is best to submit medical and police check with application.

4. It doesn't matter if your family haven't meet him in person, so long as they are aware of him and acknowledged your relationship with him. However since you plan to have a wedding, I am going to assume your family will meet him in person at the wedding.

Have you considered applying outland so that you can continue to work in NY and be able to leave Canada during process. If you intend to apply inland, you are basically stuck in Canada for up to a year or more.

Hope this help.

Congrats! But you guys made anxious. I am July applicant and haven`t heard or received anything Is there problem?

I guess with cic you can`t relly predict anything, it`s like a roulette, someone more lucky then another...

just a quick update, as an inland applicant, I did have a smooth time getting back to my home-country for a short trip. I was asked 2 questions when i was at the custom:
1) do you work here?
2) Do you bring along any gifts for anyone in Canada?

I showed the Custom officer my work permit and he stamps on it.

btw, I have renewed my passport in my home country, the number is different from the old one, do I have to update CIC ? how should I do it?

One more question, something happened during my trip in hometown, and i was in a dispute, though "criminal charge was dismissed" , i was given "bind over", which means I have to be in good for 2 years, then there will be no further record. As it is not a criminal record, just an issue noted in Court, Police said I do not have criminal record becos of this incident. So, do I have to update this to CIC?

(I am Feb 2012 group, still waiting for DM)

Congratulations to everyone with AIP and DM!!!!!!

Few members never give any update , where are you, guys ?

I`m here, too....waiting.... but my case is more complicated because my son is in Europe. He is 19 years old and my husband doesn`t sponsoring him but....
I have a question for you. I had been an elementary teacher in my country, before to came to Canada and my OWP says that I`m not authorized to work in 1/child care, 2/primary and secondary school teaching, 3/health services field occupation.
Do you have any limitations in your OWP related to your profession?

I am kinda surprised that i got my DM already.

Cic received my application on august 10th 2012, and i received an email last week stating that a decision was made on my app. The letter was dated April 2nd.

I am just waiting for saskatoon office to contact me. Cic says 8weeks max, but i hope i get it earlier. How do i get on the spreadsheet?

You get on the spreadsheet by posting all info on your timeline and I will enter you this evening. Congratulations on your DM. I am really curious as to how long it takes in Saskatoon, because I am also in Saskatoon and recieved DM on Monday.

Everyone please be patient, I will update and cleanup the spreadsheet tonight. I am super busy right now.

 

[Django_unleashed]

Parruda, thank you. You brought me luck today. You are one above me, you led the way to DM. Thank you, I know how you feel tonight.

Hi rusty, we seem to have similar timelines and live in the same city. Do you know how long it takes saskatoon office to schedule a landing interview? Congrats on ur DM! I got mine april 2nd. Cheers

Hi,I was a teacher in philippines too and when i got my OWP this week the limitations stated are; not valid for employment in business related to the sex trade such as strip clubs, massage parlours or escort service. Me and my husband were laughing out loud while reading.LOL...As for the work in childcare,I applied for the childcare certification on monday ,April 8,2013 but got the job in the childcare center on the following day even if i dont have my certification yet. i tried to apply the other childcare centre but they told me to wait for the certification before they'll take me. I'm just so happy that i got hired right away with the discount for my 18 month old also.
