LMAO ... satday is the only day i have time to do soup! but i totally hear ya, i was never crazy about eating soup in 20+C weather... always seemed bizarre to me... growing up NO body made soup in the summer... even the thought of it was silly... but now when it's -20C outside, soup is niiiiiice! Smiley  we always did up a nice pot of soup with the turkey leftovers from thanksgiving and that marked the beginning of "soup season" Smiley

this was the first time i made soup for hubby actually... and i did it canadian style, no 1/4 chicken for a huge put of soup here Smiley (pet peeve of mine to find one or two tiny piece of meat in a huge bowl of soup), i put in 4/4 (it wasn't technically a whole chicken, just 4 leg/thigh and back)... and boiled it down since noon.... all the chicken mashed up so nice... and then i added extra everything... i think the consensus is that i make better soup...  he said i have to make soup for the family when we reach back now...

but no rice and peas on Sunday here...unless hubby is coming home from his weekend shift and making it....  dinner will probably be left over soup, if there's any (we're all having soup for breakfast, and probably lunch too Smiley )... otherwise i'll probably order pizza... i know, i'm probably going to jamaican hell for that one.. or at least purgatory LOL...

Loney... I'm okay with the pig tail... but can't mess with the foot (cow, chicken or anything else that has feet and makes soup), or  mannish water.... they always try to tell me it's just goat soup LOL... sorry, try to sell that one to some other white canadian, this one aint buying it! can't even stand the smell.... actually, i wont drink any soup around christmas time bc i just never know what's in it.. it's usually misc parts from the christmas pig/goat/whatever else met their end to feed the 75 people that come for dinner... LOL

okay with that... soups on Smiley

Good morning folks Smiley

Chelley - yes, you are definitely going to Jamaican hell for that.  Pizza for dinner on Sunday?  Shocked Tsk. LOL.

Guy, I am hoping someone can guide me on a couple issues for my husband:

1) hubby was involved in two long-term common-law relationships (each lasted 5 years), both of which ended years before we met.  He doubts he can find the agreements he signed when they ended, so is there any other way for us to prove those relationships are over?  Can he swear out a declaration before a notary?  Or am I worrying needlessly, since we are married and not common-law ourselves?

2a) He has three children, but he gave up his parental rights to his son, so the child doesn't have his name, and he doesn't know where they (son and his mother) live.  Does he still need to list his son in question 15 of the Sponsor Questionnaire?

2b) His daughters do not live with him, and the arrangement he has with their mother is that she is solely financially responsible for the girls, but he has open visitation rights.  Does he still need to include the girls in question 6B on the Sponsorship Evaluation form, and list their names and DOB on that form?

Charlie...


This will hopefully help the first question... 
http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/-t27570.0.html
It basically says severance of common-law relationship is only needed in some areas and the guide specifies... Can't remember if the Caribbean guide required it? Don't think so...

I think besides the info in the link above a common law severance statement might be helpful if the relationship was with another sponsored person, or if the dates were close to or overlapped with your relationship..I think those may be cases CIC might be looking to dig further into...  Don't think either is the case for you?

The rest I'd have to see the specific questions to give my best answer (am on mobile now)... Without seeing them, I'd suggest listing all children if it says all, and listing none if it says dependants...  Sorry I can't help more here..

Maybe others will be of more help...

Chelley, thanks!

Nothing is mentioned in the Region Specific Guides, and the consensus seems to be that our marriage makes null any previous common-law relationships he had anyways.  They were both Canadians, not sponsored persons, so they have no bearing on our current application.

As for the kids, they are none of them financially dependent on him.  I just know that he gets visitation with the girls if he wants. 

Thanks for the assist! Smiley

I've been readinng and watching for a long time but never introduced myself. Hope u don't feel violate Yale things have worked out well for many. Be patient; for the most part they all seem to make it thru sooner or later. And it reason, truly is worth the wait because when u get to hold urnsoulmate in ur arms everynight the struggle to get them make you love them all that much more!

Hi everyone,

I'm not in Jamaica, but our application will go to Kingston (once we finally get it completed!!). 

Just wanted to ask - are the timescales really 15 months? That seems sooooo long!!!

Hope everyone's well...

megs... some have gone 15m or more, but that is on the higher end... if you scroll back a few days you'll see our timelines (also trackitt.com will provide some insight too when you navigate it properly)...

presently it looks like 7-8m is the benchmark, however it seems that those coming from a third location (i.e bahamians, bajans ect) seem to get thru quicker... (if you see our spreadsheet, Miracle44 was a bahamaian applicant...)

hope that helps and welcome to you and "fly" Smiley

jahlove you seem to be as anxious as me about the calls hahahahaha lol.... last week when i was talking to hubby and he was like oh one sec another line.... while waiting on the other line I kept getting super excited and almost died a few times but he would come back on the line and say it wasn't KG  Sad So hopefully this week we end up getting a call or maybe perhaps others get a call so we see that they start to call the ones that got updated... that would be very nice...

Good morning forum family, I trust everyone had an awesome weekend and enjoyed some saturday soup. chelly it was chicken and veggie soup with a couple dumplings for us with fried egg, bacon, lettuce and tomatoe sandwiches, dam getting hungry here.
Welcome to our new friends, buckle up and enjoy the ride
Charlie, congrats and hope you had a couple aspirin to chase down the wine. Nothing better than a good wine hangover, helps if you take the aspirin with a couple cold beer, after the 5th or 6th your headache is all gone. Or if your worried about weight gain, take 2 ounces of Jose, shoot it, take 2 ounces of Zaggermiester, shoot that, and 1/4 ounce of pineapple juice and pour it down the sink cause it does nothing to kill the taste of the shooters, besides it kills the buzz.

A woman went to her doctor for a follow-up visit after the doctor had prescribed testosterone for her. She was a little worried about some of the side effects she was experiencing. "Doctor, the hormones you've been giving me have really helped, but I'm afraid that you're giving me too much. I've started growing hair in places that I've never grown hair before."
The doctor reassured her. "A little hair growth is a perfectly normal side effect of testosterone. Just where has this hair appeared?"
"On my nuts."

Two good friends are out driving on Route 66 and one guy has to take a leak. Being in the middle of nowhere they pull over by some shrubbery and the guy goes to relieve himself. Suddenly, he screams "Aaagh! a rattler bit my woody!"
"Relax!" says his friend, "I'll go find a pay phone and call a doctor." So his friend drives off and finds a pay phone, call a doctor and asks what he should do.
"Well," said the doc," you must cut crosses in the wound and suck out the poison."
"Is that the only way Doc?" asked the man.
"Yes, you must do that or he'll die."
He finally gets back to friend and his friend asked "So, what did the doctor say?"
"You're gonna die, buddy. You're gonna die."
