Hi, that is not a conjugal partner. A conjugal partner is someone you are practically married to, except for the fact marriage is impossible to do due to legal reasons. Read here under all Conjugal partner sections...

It's clearly stated with simple searches that IRCC doesn't accept these kinds of marriage for immigration: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/helpcentre/answer.asp?qnum=1081&top=14...

She should immediately call around to all the local midwife offices to see if she can secure one as her care provider for pregnancy and delivery. They will offer their services for free even to those without OHIP coverage, may just need to pay for things like ultrasounds or bloodwork. If no...

Since US passport holders are eTA-exempt, there is no need to apply for PR TD. Just don'e mention to the airline you're a PR, as that may only cause complications. For the purposes of flying you're simply a US citizen to the airline. You should be able to apply for PR card renewal while in the...

So your family landed in Canada on July 1, or landed earlier and left on July 1? Again, you need to make sure your family has not spent more than 3 years (1095 days) outside Canada before they attempt to return, as they could then be reported for RO violation and process started to terminate...

If you have a medical condition (like late stage pregnancy) that would prevent you from flying to do PR landing before COPR expiry date, the visa office may allow you to delay the COPR/landing. It's entirely up to them. You should stress though the reason is medical related, and not simply due...

Once she's used the PRTD to return to Canada, she can immediately submit a regular app to renew her PR card. It will most likely be approved due to the very recent positive H&C finding. She should include copy of the RC-1 PR TD, and explain about recent H&C acceptance. She may get the PR card in...

You face a few possible issues. First, once you get PR approved and your COPR back, you, your husband and your 3-yr old will all need to fly to Canada to activate your PR status. Depending when exactly you get COPRs, you could be in later stages of pregnancy and flying could be an issue...

No, and no. Is pointless to even try. She would attempt to use H&C excuse only if she needs to when the time comes. If she's in violation of the RO (so has spent 36 months or more outside Canada within 5 years since landing as a PR) upon returning to Canada, CBSA may report her upon entry...

http://www.health.gov.on.ca/en/public/programs/ohip/ohipfaq_mn.aspx Am I still eligible for OHIP if I temporarily leave Ontario? You may be out of the province for up to 212 days in any 12-month period and still maintain your Ontario health insurance coverage provided that you continue to make...

You won't lose PR status in case of separation after you get PR. You though will not be able to sponsor any new spouse for 5 years. Yes whoever is filing Canadian income tax will need to report change in marital status from single to common-law, after reaching the 12 months of cohabitation...

There are no rules, it's entirely at the discretion of the visa officer processing your file. Totally depends on their personal opinion of if the breaks void the common-law status or not. In my opinion spending 30% of the total qualifying time separated, will be a major concern to have visa...

If both her parents are deceased and she is under age 18. If this is not the case, then there is no way for you to sponsor her.

Common-law requires 12 months of continuous cohabitation. This can be done while as a visitor in a country, you'd just need to be cautious on how you explain to US border patrol each time you enter the US. They probably don't like people "living" in the US on visitor status only. But immigration...

Correct, only you (biological mother) can sponsor the son. Your husband can't. When you got your own PR, did you at least include your son as a non-accompanying dependent in your application and have him do a medical exam? If so, then it will be no problem for YOU to sponsor him. Doesn't matter...
