Hi Members ,

I am currently in Canada as PR and going back to India this month for marriage , after that I want to sponsor my wife for her PR.

I already gone through the documentation provided by CIC for sponsorship , but I am in confusion now. Can I submit PVC (Police Verification Certificate) in place of PCC (Police clearance certificate) of my wife while putting her file.

She is currently in India (in Ahmedabad , gujarat ) so to get PCC it will take much time for all the process and I can get PVC faster than PCC.

will PVC valid for PR file OR I must need PCC ??

Thanks in advance ,

Sandip

No - you can't submit a PVC instead. You need the PCC. It's not optional.

You don't HAVE to get insurance, but BC has a 3 month (minus the time left in the month when you land) waiting period before you are covered by BC MSP. All that's covered right away is Pharmacare (for medication, dentist).

And make sure you give them all the information they require or expect an even longer wait.

Actually you will need it if you want health care coverage for the first three months you are living in Canada. Ontario health care coverage doesn't kick in until you have been here for three months. You don't need to get private insurance if you don't want to. But if something happens to you during those first three months - you will have to pay for the costs of any care out of your own pocket (which can be extremely expensive).

Not till March. I don't think PR's will need one anyways, since you are now a PR.

Hi Every , need your opinion please ,
I applied for Quebec Immigration in 6/2011, as Single , I received the CSQ in 6/2015 ( CSQ was issued in 2/2015) , without Doing Any Interviews ;
Problem is that I got Married in 11/2013 and we had a baby girl in 3/2015 , I did not declare my wife and Baby , because I thought I could sponsor them after I go to Quebec,
From 2 weeks I knew that I must declare them first and update my application before Landing in Quebec , in order to sponsor them later, Otherwise I will not be able sponsor them ever,

Now , I don't know what to do exactly According to Canada immigration Laws, I have 3 solutions in mind but I need your legal Advices, about which one of them is the best:


1- Update my file immediately , Adding the information from my wife and my baby (as Married) to immigrate all together, but at the same time I am afraid that immigration authorities will consider that I lied when I mentioned that I am single as I am married for 2 years , so Maybe they'll cancel my CSQ accordingly. (considering me Misrepresenting)

2- Continue without update my file and Immigrate as Single, and After that, in Quebec I can try to sponsor my wife and baby,


3- Update my file immediately as in Conjugal relationship and Add my baby in the application (born from 8 months) , then to obtain CSQ Family (Me, Partner and baby) but I do not know how this update will influence my present CSQ ?? Cancelling it or Causing lengthening the Period of my file processing ??

Note 1: I am in currently in the Federal verification stage.
Note 2: my Qualifying Points are OK as Single and Married , but My Wife don't know French Language at all.

Wish to get your precious advice ASAP

Do NOT take option #2!

If you land without adding your wife and child, you will NEVER be able to sponsor them. You MUST update your application to include them!

That's what I meant by you don't HAVE to get it, it's not a requirement. But in certain provinces you will be out of luck for up to 3 months if you don't.

Hello Everyone,

I am currently very frustrated with the current processing time. I don't know why they are taking long and putting people's lives on hold.

My main question is that I sponsored my husband first week of February 2015 from New Delhi. I was informed that it was taking around 9 months even though the processing time was given 16 months on the website. My nine months has passed and I would like to know if anyone has an idea how long it's taking roughly? Or which month they are currently processing? Maybe someone who applied in Dec. 2014 or Jan 2015 has received their visa.

There should be a better way to help keep us informed. We are not getting answers as how to where our application is at this stage.
If anyone can help, it will be greatly appreciated.

Sincerely,

Frustrated Canadian
