    INLAND APPLICATIONS 2015

    I would try to relax. "Inventory reduction exercise" sounds like something administrative on their end, maybe as an "example" in some kind of exercise? I would prepare the documents you've already submitted, again. You should have your own copy on hand. Include other evidence as well. Joint bank...

    INLAND APPLICATIONS 2015

    Hello everyone! I landed today at CIC Etobicoke! I'll include my timeline below. The landing experience was very relaxed and almost fun? I was nervous so I was especially giddy, the two agents I met with were super friendly and relaxed as well. They ask some formality questions, but they were...

    INLAND APPLICATIONS 2015

    I don't know that you'll get anywhere arguing with CIC about whether or not you need a PCC. Generally, if they request something, you should do what you can to send it. By all means, call, but I would also look into what it would take to get the PCC and how long that would take. CIC gives you 30...

    39 year age gap

    Awww! I would certainly say you guys are well matched :) To answer your question from before, there are a lot of common relationship struggles that can be related to age-gaps. I think the biggest issue would be compatibility. Where do your and your wife's interests overlap? Do you share hobbies...

    39 year age gap

    I don't think you'll have much of a problem, as long as your relationship is genuine. If you're in a genuine relationship, I really don't think you have much to worry about. I would include as many photos as possible. Also, I know it was mentioned to write a relationship letter. Do that. But I...

    Job Searching before Landing Interview - question

    Thanks so much for responding, guys! They'll be adding me to their payroll on July 18, the day I receive my PR & SIN#. Should I ask them to add me to payroll on July 19? I won't start working until the following day regardless, but I just don't want to be in any kind of grey area whatsoever...

    Hello everyone! I am a November 2015 in-land applicant and my landing interview is scheduled for July 18. I started job searching, just tweaking my resume and submitting it here and there. Yesterday I received a call back and today I had an interview. They'd like to hire me (in fact, they'd like...

    INLAND APPLICATIONS 2015

    Are you planning to travel by car? Are you from a visa-exempt country? You do not need your PR card to enter Canada, at all. The CBSA officer will see that you're a permanent resident when they scan your passport. However, if you're traveling by airline, you'll have to show the them (on your...

    Unique Conditions - Not sure if family sponsorship is the right option

    Sorry, I meant which office would be processing your application. Where is your home country? You can apply from physically anywhere in the world, but if you are not from the United States, your application will process in wherever your home country is :) There are threads in this subforum...

    Unique Conditions - Not sure if family sponsorship is the right option

    My apologies, I shouldn't have assumed where you were coming from. Generally, the process is similar to what I explained above. The Family Sponsorship application has a few stages. First, you'll submit the completed application through whatever channel you choose - inland or outland. Most...

    Unique Conditions - Not sure if family sponsorship is the right option

    Family sponsorship is the right option for you. Once you are a permanent resident, it does not matter through which stream you have applied, you have all the same rights as every other permanent resident. Your wife can sponsor you, and if/when you are approved for PR, you'll land and be able to...

    Immigration to Canada > Family Class Sponsorship >

    Ah, I didn't know you left Italy already. I don't think you'd have a problem either way. Maybe the license that you'll receive in England will have a different expiry date than your Italian license? If your license from Britain has the same expiry as your license from Italy, would it be expired...

    HELP! My husband got deported, did not inform immi ,cross u.s border illegally

    Her husband may have been required to verify his exit with CBSA when he left the country. If he received a departure order and did not verify his exit at the border, that departure order would have automatically become a deportation order. He would need to file for an ARC to be allowed to return...

    Denied Work Permit and Red Flag

    We can all only provide our own, unique experiences with CBSA and CIC. They're different from other people's experiences because, as we all know, CBSA and CIC can be a bit inconsistent at times. There's no need for anyone to get so hostile and defensive, nobody is saying that anyone else is...

    I would renew the license in your home country, have it exchanged in Britain and then come to Ontario and exchange it. Just to be on the safe side.
