    Applying for Student Permit extension then PR

    Given the extremely long processing times I would not be counting on getting PR through the HK program. I would be doing anything possible to qualify via other pathways. You should certainly still apply but would be learning French for example, working in a field in high demand in Canada...

    Taxes and Citizenship Application

    If you can’t file your taxes yet then IRCC doesn’t expect to receive them. I would always apply for citizenship with a bit of a buffer to hopefully avoid more scrutiny and longer processing. At that point you may have also filed your taxes.

    Visitor visa

    They have Canadian immigration history of returning home which is good but retiring creates less ties to their home country. If they weren’t retired not sure how they could visit for 6 months. If you qualify you should consider a supervisa since that is more dependent on your profile than a...

    Visit visa for dying sister

    Realistically it may be difficult depending on her profile but you should definitely try. Be very clear you want to be considered for compassionate reasons and keep the visit relatively short (a few weeks maximum) for a higher chance of approval. Good luck!

    Need help with parents visitor visa

    In what time period were the 4 applications? Are you a PR? Does your NOA meet LICO? With your spouse? You should have considered a supervisa after the first or 2nd refusal.

    Help, what fees am I paying for OWP?

    You won’t qualify for an OWP until AIP if out of status. If it has been less than 90 days since you lost your status apply to restore your status.

    Spouse H1B holder residing in US, indian passport but has valid Canadian visitor visa

    Is there a good reason your family is not aware of your wedding or your relationship? Given you appear to have known each other and each others families this seems very unusual. When did you get married? Was this during a period where it was unclear what was happening with H1B although not sure...

    H&C Humanitarian Ground with/or Without Failed refugee claim

    Agree that there will be major changes but disagree that most Canadians will oppose these changes. There was a clear mandate to bring immigration back to reasonable levels. The current government is not even being honest about the actual PR numbers this year counting one-time programs so they...

    I need help

    Realistically Canada already has a huge number of Haitian asylum claimants and more arriving so it will be very difficult to get to Canada. Are you fluent in French at all decent level? Do you have post- secondary education? If you are employed in what type of job and for how long?

    A few months short of Residency Obligation in first 5 years. YVR or YYC less likely Sec 44?

    Truly it comes down to luck and how busy CBSA is that day. As Canada tightens their immigration policy they may become stricter when it comes to not meeting RO but many have much more substantial non-compliance issues. This does mean leaving Canada until you meet your RO risky. You should not...

    Spouse H1B holder residing in US, indian passport but has valid Canadian visitor visa

    Agree but given H1B issues in the US there may be a lot more suspicion when it comes to marrying people with status in Canada these days. Also fairly uncommon to get married without any family attending when they have known each other for around a decade likely in India and having spent minimal...

    Didn't mention INC in employer name and in address I wrote Toronto instead of Scarborough

    Shouldn’t be an issue if the address and postal code are still the same. Inc is not an issue
