INLAND APPLICATIONS 2012

[screech339]

@ Screech,
Yes, you are right. Thanks for correcting me. If Sierra came to Canada before she was 18, then she isn't asked to get her police certificate. She might be young.

You're welcome. However I believe odds are not in sierra's favour in getting a DM without submitting a police check or medical test done. While I was willing to give her the benefit of the doubt in landing without a medical test done, now she also said that police check wasn't submitted either. Now I think it is next to impossible to land without a police check and medical test.

@sierra
I'd advise u you to call Mr Chris Alexander, the new immigration minister. He will el you what's needed to satisfy the statutory requirements. Stop sounding stupid by trying to convince yourself that you're çorrect. Why should CIC request things from you? The police certificate and medical exam requests are there on the document checklist. Are you certain your file wasn't transferred with sponsor approval since you had so many vital documents missing? Don't be overjoyed because you don't have a landing letter coming until you clear up these obvious poo

Creative use of the last word in your posting. However if in the event that sierra is right that she got a Decision Made on her application without any police check or medical exam done, chances are that it is a negative DM. To make matters worst, since she applied inland, she cannot appeal the decision. She would have no choice but to leave Canada by end of her visa stay and reapply outland in her home country.

OHHHH GoDDDD processed 1 day files in 1 month 4 day files in 4 months
i think i have to wait for another 50 months to get response to my file ...

If its due to strike we have nothing in our hand PAFSO and Canadian Government is playing with people lives... really if its gonna cost every canadian just 0.04 $ every year it should be acceptable to such developed country ..

In my opinion before even people come to roads for strike government should get over with this issue its not just for us its for sake of Canada's reputation all over world

Turns on her inner 'translator' and scrutinizes this post........ working working working working working .....

Ok, I still don't get it, please calm down for a minute and repost your statement. I understood just about 3 words in the entire thing ....

*walks away still trying to figure it out* ???

*****Wait, where did that post even go to? I swear it, I have NOT officially gone insane, it was here, it was too!! ;D

I just want to make something clear, I joined this forum to get information on the inland sponsorship process and also to get support while waiting on the process to finish. I commend when I see fit and refute when I see fit. I didn't join this forum to insult or be rude to anyone because I am well aware though all of us here have the same goal which is getting thru this process successfully and in a timely manner, we all have different outlook on the process in its entirety.

It's impossible to please everyone on this forum so if I were to suggest anything when u encounter a posting u may not like just " Build a bridge.... get over it"

" Still Hoping and Praying for the best for everyone waiting"

@ Screech....I know I was told over and over I cannot study because I need AIP but is it possible to do a Degree online or courses online from a Canadian University where the credits can go towards a Degree? After all no one needs a study permit to do online courses..... Will immigration find out and penalize me?

Also because I do not have implied status for Study ( didn't extend my study permit so I have an illegal status)
can I study for 6 months seeing CIC said u don't need a permit to study for 6 months? Then again I think for this case you have to have legal status... Don't know if u have any info on this.

It is allowed to work at home for example if u do online business...

@goldmoon

For clarity's sake, did your student visa expire prior to applying for sponsorship? As far as I know, if you had a valid study visa prior to applying for sponsorship PR, then you would be under implied study visa until PR process is done. However if your study visa expired before you applied for sponsorship, then in theory, you are under "visitor visa" status. I don't think this was the case whereby you applied after your student visa expired. You were suppose to leave Canada at end of your student visa. So I am going to assume you already had a valid student visa when your sponsorship was submitted. If this was the case, you can apply for online courses. Online courses still falls under the same rules as if you were studying for it in person at university. So a study visa is still required.

However I think there are exception to the rule. If you took a course that is less than 6 month in length to complete than you don't need a study visa. I read that somewhere but I think it is a grey area.

I'm not 100% sure on this. You may need to check with CIC or research this more before confirming it.

Actually yes it was expired. But CIC gives u 90 days in which you can restore that status, within that 90 days I applied for PR.

But why do I need a permit to do an online degree? If I were at home I don't need one so what is the difference? I am curious...

Thank you. No worries. This forum gets crazy sometimes.

Since your case is not a typical case, I am not sure how to answer your question then. Even though CIC give you 90 days to renew your status/extend it, your student visa has expired. This is a unique case. You applied for PR instead of renewing/extending student visa. So I don't know how to answer it.

I think it is a case of you physically being in Canada that require you to have a study visa to take courses. So you could be in your own home country and take online courses provided you pay all the fees required. You are now in Canada so rules apply different. The visas are given based on your intention inside Canada. You were given a study visa to study courses inside Canada. People get visitor visa to visit canada thus not allowed to take courses while in Canada. Same probably goes for work visa. You come to work in canada not to study. It is all about your intention inside canada.

You can take online courses from your own country because you are not required to physically be inside canada to take the courses. Just pay the international student fees online. Thus you do not need study visa while in own country.

There are cases whereby people came in to canada on study visa and get deported after getting married. Some CIC agents may believe they came in on false intentions. Using a study visa to get married in Canada even though they did take courses while there. Don't mean to scare you on that premise. They fall in a very small minority of cases whereby there was evidence of coming to canada through false means. Say a case of being denied a tourist visa, so they apply for student visa to come and get married in Canada. That sort of thing.

Back to your original question of being able to take online courses. Based on the premise that your student visa expired prior to sponsorship and you are physically in Canada, I don't think you can take any education courses until your PR process is done, or at least AIP. Once you get AIP, you can change your status to study visa so you can take courses.

Thanks screech. I actually was with my husband ( fiance then) before I applied for study permit. I have been coming to Canada since 2006. And I got engaged way before my study permit was expired so I hope CIC would look at all that ** sigh**

A medical and police check were not part of the document checklist, at least not in 2011 which is when we initially applied. The guide said they would contact us. I have just found out that they sent the letter about the DM to an address we haven't lived at for over a year. They didn't send it to the address that shows up online. So my question now is does that letter come by registered mail? I talked to CIC today and they said I can't request them to resend it until Aug 12th! I am wondering if they sent the request to the same address they sent the DM letter to? What is the point of updating your address online if they don't use it!!
