It is tax season and I am completely overwhelmed on how to proceed. I am US citizen and became a Canadian PR in December of 2014. So 2015 was my first year as a resident of Canada. Here is a breakdown of my situation: 1) Most of my worldwide income came from my Canadian employer 2) For the...

Quick question. That says you have 90 days to switch over your license. I haven't been driving while in Canada but I have been here 5 months. Is the 90 day rule just like you can't keep using your US license in Canada after 90 days? Or can I no longer have my license swapped since it is past 90...

Hi, I am about to go in to get my Pennsylvania drivers license swapped for a British Columbia license and I had a few questions. I know I need to have my driving record from the states and my license but beyond that I am unsure about the process. Must I take a written exam or a driving test...

Thank you! I will send you my email address in a pm. It is a beautiful area. If you move in the summer, you will fall in love with it I am sure, every day is perfect and picturesque. If you move there in the late fall/winter you might be a little depressed if you are someone that needs the sun...

Hello, I am a landed permanent resident of Canada and in the process of exporting my vehicle from Pennsylvania to Vancouver, Canada, via the border crossing in Blaine, Washington. I contacted the US Customs in Blaine and they provided a worksheet that needs to be filled in and emailed to them 3...

Just to clarify I must reside IN Canada for 1095 days every 5 years but that applies only if we are not living TOGETHER correct? So if we were living in the US together that would count towards that 1095 days? Sorry I just don't want to misinterpret it.

Are you sure about this? I was told by someone, perhaps incorrectly, that because we were not married for 2 years before applying, that the condition is that we must live in Canada together for a period of two years. That said, looking at my COPR it only mentions cohabiting and nothing about it...

I am a landed permanent resident of Canada, living with my spouse through spousal sponsorship. We did so much work to get here and were/are very committed to living in Canada. The move was recent and so I am still looking for work. The other day I was contacted by head hunter back where I used...

Ouch that hurts. Sorry I didn't see the other thread. I could have swore AMEX advertised transfer your "credit history" but maybe that just means for their purposes only. Ouch, that is brutal.

I am relatively young, 28, but over the years I have developed a fairly good credit history, in the excellent category. I would hate to completely lose that and have to start over. I have been looking in to the topic online and I am getting mixed answers. Some say, nope, sorry they don't...

I am fairly sure it will make the trip. I am more wondering, do you guys think it is worth it to do. I know every situation is unique and there are a lot of variables, so I don't even know if there is really a point to ask for opinions on this, but I am still curious to know what others...

So I will be moving from Pennsylvania to British Columbia this November. I don't have an enormous amount of things. I have some electronics, (game systems, a couple mid size tvs) clothes, just the average stuff. Although I will say my parents would let me take their nice unused couch and chair...

I have just received word that my package has arrived in the mail today. I am at work so I haven't opened it. Again I am in Pennsylvania so I wouldn't be surprised if you also get yours within 2-3 business days of changing to decision made.

I am curious. I had a trip to Canada planned for the beginning of September. Say, for example, I am required to land by December of 2014, if I go to visit in September, MUST I officially land or can I just go as a visitor and then return in December to officially land?

About an hour outside of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

Mine was a spousal sponsorship. I live in the US and my wife(Canadian citizen) lives in Canada. I have not received my COPR yet, just the online status says a decision has been made.

Uh holy crap, mine is also at decision made. I am nervous, excited and scared. Scared that it might be bad news, excited because I am fairly certain it is good news and nervous because I had not anticipated it going through THAT FAST and I am really not ready at all to land. When do you think I...

The only "issue" would be that it would be nice to be able to continue to work here in the states (no more than a few months after being accepted) while I look for employment in Canada. It makes me a little uncomfortable leaving my current employment in the states to immediately move to Canada...

It doesn't work for me either. I only have a sponsor UCI. When do we typically get an applicant UCI? My sponsor was approved a couple weeks ago and the process has moved to the evaluation of the applicant step.

Does anyone know if I will be told officially if this rule applies to me? There seems to be some possibility that even though I haven't been married 2 years, since my relationship is well over 2 years perhaps that will be considered.
