    Called in again today to CIC, was told we've been rescheduled for February 25. The second letter was sent on the 17th, so they basically added 1 extra day. We still haven't received the second letter yet...luckily I thought about calling today

    Received landing date on the date scheduled (inland)

    We came home tonight to find a landing letter for Tuesday February 11, 2014 for 1:00pm. The envelope had February 4th as the date stamped. Really 5 business days to give notice including mail delivery time?? What are the odds of the date mistaken for Tuesday March 11? The CIC call center...

    Sponsorship Eval. Form- Student with no Income but Large savings

    I sponsored my gf as a masters student too. I had the department assistant print out my funding package details including ogs, TA, and ra. Mine funding was 23000 so you can easily pass with nserc IMO. But then again I also included my noa for the previous year with a summer job totalling 21k...

    I had a slight similar situation as you since we didn't even know we qualify as common law by living together for one year. It seems like they just want proof of cohabitation of at least one year prior to you application(assuming you have other documents to support the relationship itself). We...

    Parent Sponsorship - Pros and Cons

    I'm pretty sure the main reason to sponsor is free health care. You'd be stupid to not take advantage of this. (Compared to the super visa) It is all about financials. I can give you an example in graduate studies. An international student can get domestic tuition if they apply for pr. A lot...

    INLAND APPLICATIONS 2013

    I believe it's like a E-File. We did the medical with our application, and the upfront medical had a E-file number. I'm guessing after AIP and when the officer starts the applicant assessment, he/she will pull the file through the system using the E-file number and mark it as medical...

    Relationship Photographs

    Also think quality is best. Like others we scanned photos and used a word document. I think this was for the description of trips together. Timeline for the past three years, in a table format for description and a picture for each trip description. Yes, we only included about 10 pics. With...

    Opting a Canadian university for MS

    As you are going to do some type of a research thesis, the 'best' university depends on the supervisor best suited for your field. The university rankings are based on "overall" and hardly purely "engineering" let alone ECE. Getting published in a reputable journal such as IEEE Trans. is much...

    universities list

    Pretty sure it is standard to have some sort of English proficiency to apply for Master's in any Canadian university. Not all universities offer engineering, so it's easy for you to find that information yourself.
