Hi Miki: Did you ever get an answer to your question about if you need an affidavit for EACH document translated or will one affidavt be suffice for all. I have spoke to CIC twice and got two different answers from them. First answer was: You need an affidavit for EACH document translated...

My friend has been nominated by a province. That province accepted ONE affidavit signed by the translator, stamped by a lawyer and a list of documents that were translated by him as suffice documents to be submitted. I called the CIC customer service twice to ask them what their policy was and...

Does anyone know about how long it would take for a skilled worker to immigrate from Cuba with his wife and daughter. He is a university graduate with a B.A. in English. He speaks French to the Intermediate to Advanced Level and he said his writing of French is a little rusty. Also it looks...
