Steerpike, Illegally??? Im sorry but US have him social security number, gave him permission to work and contribute. Yes, it is unfair because everyone commits mistakes. He was a child when he did a ONE TIME stupid thing. He did not hurt or stole from anyone. There are people who walk among us...

Thank you for info!!!

Yes, I believe he won't be ever able to be legally in States for more than few months and that's why Canada is a way to go. However, we were thinking about Canada for quite a while so now we just got this extra 'push' to actually do it. And do not even get me started on the immigration laws...

How would one to about obtaining necessary certification in order to qualify under the Alberta's program?? The CIC website mentions one needs registered apprentice, certified journeyperson, or trade certificate. My fiancée was recently deported back to Colombia and we are looking into applying...

It was over 30 grams. He made a mistake but it is still unfair what immigration did. Anyhow, Canada is actually a dream come true to us, so no matter how much work it will involve we will do anything to get there.

One more question...how would we go about obtaining a professional certification? He has 7 yrs of experience but never obtained any certificate. Could he obtain it now even though he will be in Colombia?

Thank you so much for your help!!! Truly a great advice.

He qualifies for Alberta's Provincial Nominee Program under mechanic trades. That is also location where we would love to settle. I understand I can't just move to Canada without proper paperwork and visa. It has been 5 yrs since probation. He was not sentenced to any jail time. I thought that...

Amikety, We want to live in Canada permanently. I am in the US now, he is going to be in Colombia any day now. I'm just looking for the best option for him to enter Canada legally and once he's there I'm going to move as well. His criminal record makes the situation difficulty. I did the self...

Well, he was trying to get residency in US based on political asylum but the judge rejected the appeal because nobody out of his family was hospitalized, and that is the basic requirment for asylum in the US. He has proofs that his family was and still is in danger if came back to Colombia. So...

My fiancée was recently deported from US to Colombia. Obviously we are trying to figure out a way for us to be reunited as quickly as possible. Therefore, my question is what is the best way for him to enter Canada? Applying for a federal skilled worker visa, which would mean waiting until May...

Hello, I am seeking information regrading how would one go about arranging employment position for visa application? Is it simply a matter of looking for a job on the job bank provided on the Canadian embassy website? Anyone who has been through the process, could you tell me how did you do it...

Hello, Recently my soon to be husband was deported to Colombia. We decided to move to Canada. I am planning for him to apply for a federal skilled worker visa. He has 7 yrs of experience working as a mechanic here in USA (he owned a business, auto shop and auto parts sales). I did the...

Scylla, I'm sorry I should have elaborated on my qualifications...I work for a rather large medical company, that has agents in Canada so I could probably request transfer and have a job over there if I was to move. Or in the worst case at least I have some work experiment to show for so...

Scylla, Thank you for responding. I did the self-assessment test on CIC website to find out if he qualifies to immigrate under the skilled worker category, and he received 69 points when the pass mark it 67. I am quite sure I am able to immigrate without a problem since I will have my bachelor...
