    Proof of Relationship letters

    We had about 6 support letters... on my side (sponsor) I got two from my parents and one from my best friend, and my partner's side he got two from his friends and one from our roommate. All the letters pretty much had a common structure. They started off with an introduction outlining how the...

    Same Sex sponsorship, experience & Time-line

    I would say it's easier if you're a very very VERY patient person! haha A great resource for same sex couples going through the immigration process is LEGIT (legit.ca or "LEGIT: Canadian Immigration for Same-Sex Partners" on Facebook) - especially if you are currently in the process of...

    INLAND APPLICATIONS 2010

    It says that info on E-CAS. That "in process" date appeared sometime mid-summer.. we haven't officially received a letter stating that they received our application. We used my partner's client ID number he had from his visitor status renewal.

    INLANDERS!

    We didn't apply when we sent our application. Although we sent it in and asked them to attach it to our application and to process it upon AIP. I swear to all thats holy, if there is any delay in getting my husband a work permit after 1st stage approval I'm going to go crazy.

    INLANDERS!

    Well our timeline isn't out of the norm. We sent in our application in February so I'm sure the wait is normal, since the website says they're on January applications - I just wanna take a look to see how far they got. Our last update online was confirmation they received our additional...

    I can't believe this.....

    From my experience it seems like "implied status" is a term that the agents like to use when they have no idea how to answer the question of the legality of someone's stay here. Also, it's Immigration Canada, a government thing... except the unexpected especially when it comes to money. I...

    INLANDERS!

    Anyone know if we can order a copy of our case's FOSS notes when an application is still "processing" - and if so, would it someway hurt our decision if they see we requested to see it? The reason why I ask is that our process is taking way too long and immigration's phone support is giving us...

    INLANDERS!

    Our ECAS has not been updated since May... it just keeps saying our application is in process as of May 18... but we were surprised today when we received a letter from immigration requesting us to update his work and address information. They provided us with a IMM 5608 E form to fill out with...

    I never thought about it but what would you do if it was refused?

    "What would you do if we refused the application for your visa?" I know what I would do. Quit my job, file for bankruptcy, then when that's all done go to Brazil to be with my husband. The only logical explanation (and trust me this worry and plan has run through my mind quite a lot since we...

    INLANDERS!

    Just a question about the medical exam. I sponsored my husband to become a Permanent Resident at the end of February but since his visitor status expired in March we were suggested to restore it. We applied for that in April and today we received a letter from Immigration saying it's approved...

    We used my husband's client ID number from a previous application he sent in November. If you have one laying around you can try that.

    Yeah, I meant to say 64 days till the application gets opened. All this immigration stuff and all the information is really massive so I'm getting my wires crossed! We're a bit concerned about the whole situation because mistakes were made in the past and we just want to make sure things are...
