Have a joint bank account as long as possible. Have as many documents as you can showing both your names on a mortgage or tenant agreement. Save every receipt you both have for home furnishings, car payments, rent.. basically anything you spend money on for both of you. Try to have multiple...

They received my application late August 2019 and I didn’t hear anything until Feb 2020 when they requested my medical via IRCC message. I got that done and didn’t hear from them again for another 5 months in August when they requested fingerprints and background check. In November they...

Hi guys, I'm 96% through my inland common-law PR sponsorship and I received a request for more evidence of cohabitation for 1 year before applying. I originally supplied a copy of our signed joint rental agreement beginning a year and seven months before sending the application, along with a...

Do you know if the signatures must be done within 3 months of the package being received or is it from when the agent is looking at it? Also, how do I find out if my forms are up to date?

Does anyone know if any of the PR+OWP forms on the checklist have been changed or updated since July? Your help is greatly appreciated

Thanks for your input once again, even though it's not the news I wanted. Oh well, back to it I guess... EDIT: Is there any resource that can inform me of when forms have been updated? Or if anyone in the process is aware of there have been any changes since July?

Hey guys, Just thought I'd give you all an update on my returned application. It finally arrived in the mail, around 30 days after being marked as incomplete. Apparently the only thing that was missing was "notice of assessment including line 150". The package they returned contains the...

Okay thank you. If I could just bother you with a few more questions, what timeframe do you suggest for submitting the visitor extension? Am I correct in saying that once my visitor extension application is submitted I will be under implied vistor status until it is approved? And in the meantime...

Not condescending in the slightest, I really appreciate all the information you've provided. I will start getting getting those letters and documents together right away. Thank you so much for your thorough and helpful input. Fingers crossed!

Thank you so much for your time and help, you have truly assisted me in a time of need. You are a great person.

Okay thats good to hear. Thanks. I believe I have an ETA.

I appreciate your feedback. Am I correct in saying that the visitors extension is all online and accessible via my CIC account? I believe I was mixing up a TRV/Visitor Visa and a visitor's extension, the latter being much simpler. Would you recommend I apply for the extension ASAP or wait until...

This is where things get tricky, because I have already sent my OWP+PR application and I found out that it was incomplete and returned to me. Its been 20 days since marked as incomplete and I have not received my application back. My greatest fear is that it was somehow lost in the mail and and...

I came on an IEC/working holiday, I already had a Canadian partner, we became common-law during my stay in Canada. My two year open work permit expires on November 24. I was under the impression that if my status is going to possibly run out while waiting for/reapplying for a PR + OWP, that I...

Does this mean sending a paper application or online? If i do it a day before my OWP runs out, isn't that cutting it a bit close to the deadline?
