Darn, it looks like we could have done it from New Brunswick as well, however he doesn't have a 2 year diploma, only a 1 year.... although he does have more than 1 year of post secondary study, it was just in different stages. Does anyone know if the 2 year diploma is paramount?

Hi guys, so confused by the options... and I'm sure there's a very quick answer to this question... My mum and I are now Permanent Residents (I just sponsored mum), we want to sponsor my brothers (over 30 years old, skilled workers back home), I know we can do it from Manitoba... We currently...

Hey Anthony, and everyone else, my mum landed yesterday at PeaceArch border, at last it's over! Peacearch was easy, although take note when flagpoling you have to wait in the U.S. customs and immigration queue before they will give you a piece of paper to say you're flagpoling! Was a 2 hour...

Hi, they accepted her supervisa ones, as long as they were done within a year of the medical request they'll accept them, just tell them they've been done.

Hey, have you got your landing documents yet?

Oh OK, so it's a little different for Spousal. We're visa exempt, but still have to send passport photos to Ottawa, we don't require a visa, and then they send us landing documents and mum still has to go to the boarder and land. So for spousal they just do it in an interview, would be so much...

I have a question for you guys. If you're being sponsored in Canada, and have your interview in Canada, does the Immigration officer give you your permanent residency right there on the spot? You don't have to send passports or anything and then land? I'm just asking as someone I know says...

Just Google "local MP + your area where you live" and it'll come up, just send them an email. To the person who applied in 2014 and hadn't heard anything, contact cic definitly. Has anyone read on the forums how l9ng it takes after passport request? We sent passport photos last week...

Ha you're probably right ;) and no worries, happy to help.

Haha nice one! We'll race you to the border to flagpole ;D

I thought it might also be helpful to know that 2 days after receiving the request for passport photos, the status online has changed to Decision Made (it still says In Process for the Sponsor though).

There apparently is a time limit, I'm not sure what it is yet, but mum got her request for passport photos on Tuesday (she's visa exempt), we sent them off on Tuesday night, but the request said it was an urgent request as now that the processing of the application is complete there is a...

I figured it out, it's just one self addressed folded and put in the envelope addressed to them... I'm only sponsoring my mum. Thanks!

When I hadn't heard anything for a while I sent them an email just asking if they could confirm they have received everything they required... it seemed to hurry them up a bit as they emailed that same day requesting another police check and another copy of mums divorce cert... as soon as they...

Thanks Anthony! Have you heard anything new yet?

Indeed.... I have to say, they always replied really quickly, so that's to their credit.

Oh OK great, so we send the passport photos by expresspost and include one self addressed xpresspost envelope for them to send them back? It's confusing because they say purchase 2.. however I'm pretty sure the one with their address is us sending them the passport photos.

Just got an email from CPC, asking us to send 2 passport size photos, and 2 xpresspost envelopes within 15 days. I love how it's got "FINAL DEMAND" at the top... seeing this is the first request for them! We're visa exempt so no request for passport was made. What do they need the return...

Ah yes!! that makes sense, I remember now from when I got my PR... it was pretty straight forward (although feels like it was so long ago now I can barely remember!)

Ah interesting, we're visa exempt so can submit via email, I guess they of course won't need the photos, those would be for the visa right?
