4 more sleeps until my man finally lands :) It's amazing how much it's caused me to kick into overdrive to clean my house before he does!! Oh the things we do... How did your landing go Bagel? And welcome to Canada :)

You won't get a Canadian passport with a PR. That only comes when you get citizenship. But with PR, you can travel outside the country with no problems. You just have to be sure to make the minimum time requirements for being in Canada, so be careful not to travel beyond that requirement.

I wouldn't fret..just look at our timeline. It took almost 3 months to get our AOR but we finally got there! Just have patience, it will come :)

DA officially lands on June 14th!! I'm beyond excited and can't believe we finally have less than 3 weeks until we're reunited! I think a date night is in order :) Can you update the spreadsheet for us please? Now..how to kill time until then..*sigh*

I'm Da1000's spouse....so excited that it's finally come! Can't believe that we've been approved! All the stress and time apart has been worth it and especially proud of the fact that we did it ourselves with no legal help... originally looked into getting a solicitor to help but it was well...

Exactly my point! It's a very ambiguous term. But we ended up doing exactly as Canadianwoman and Jarry96 mentioned. We made a list of all the times he stayed with me in my home and included a detailed cover letter explaining why we did not list these under addresses lived at the first time. They...

My partner and I are in the process of our FCS application and it's reached stage 2. The London VO has sent us an e-mail requiring additional documents including 'Living History', which was included but we think they may want a more thorough list. By that I mean my partner has come to stay with...

Congrats to all who've reached the next step! Question for whomever would like to answer... I've just checked ECAS to see if anything else has been added and now it just shows my name and address! It used to show 'application received' or something along those lines but now it shows nothing...

HAPPY THANKSGIVING WEEKEND!! I know it's only Saturday but wanted to pass on the sentiment. I know I'm thankful for my partner and any bit of good news we get on our application. I wish you all a wonderful Thanksgiving and good luck with all of your applications! Maybe some of you will have...

Same thing for me too, hopefully we'll be able to log in soon!

Ok, cheers again! I'll have a look for the London thread....PR before xmas, now that would be a lovely christmas present!!

Cheers bagel! Any idea how long the next step will take?

To Kyle18: I cannot send a private message back yet, probably due to having under 10 posts so I'm not ignoring you! Just am not allowed to respond. I don't have approval yet, I just have my AOR :)

FINALLY received the e-mail stating that I've met the requirements for eligibility as a sponsor. Now they're sending it off to London for the next step. It's nice to have some sort of e-mail communication from them!

We're now on ecas too! Just logged in with my client ID they gave me yesterday and it's finally on there! Just says application was received but still, at least we're showing up now! I was getting so worried that our application was lost, so any news is good news :)

Is that what it means then? I still haven't received anything via e-mail yet, this was all just verbal, assuming they were telling the truth about it being processed today.

Hello all, Da1000 is actually my other half, the one whom I'm sponsoring. We sent in our application on July 10th, arrived July 11th and was getting so worried that perhaps ours got lost! But after reading through here and seeing that many others have had to call since they've not heard...

Thank you for the response! That takes a load of my mind knowing that there's no minimum income requirement. Showing adequate arrangements shouldn't be a problem seeing as I'll begin looking for a job from the UK a few weeks before I will return. Now to get the process started finally :)

Thank you for replying! Sorry my reply is a few months late lol As his sponsor, would I need to have a certain amount of funds for when he arrives? Bearing in mine I'll just be arriving back from living in the UK, so won't have a job straight away but will get one as soon as I possibly can...

Hello, I was hoping someone could help me with some information regarding having my common law spouse move to Canada for a couple years. I'm a Canadian citizen born and raised who moved to the UK in 2009 under the Youth Mobility Scheme Visa. I'm due to go back home in the next couple months...
