As expected, my PR renewal has gone in for a secondary review since I had stayed abroad within the first 5 years of my landing, primary reason being to take care of my sick and ageing parents. Though technically, I waited till I safely crossed the 730 days, which co incidentally was around the...

Hello everyone, Since July 2015 I have been working in Canada for a US based Company.This month I would be visiting our HO in US. I had applied for renewal of my PR Card in July 2015 (just before I joined the Canada Operations of this company) after meeting the 730 odd days residency...

I received an email from CIC today stating that my application for PR renewal was received on 6th of July and a preliminary review is complete of my application and it has been referred for a secondary review. This review will result in an additional delay. Any idea how long I would have to...

Please contact PEO, they will evaluate your degree and advice.

Hello everyone, I finally got my P.Eng License on 15th of May....and attended the Iron Ring Ceremony (these two are not connected) earlier on the 7th of May. All the best everyone.

Thanks once again to all who contributed to answering my query. I am planning to visit my home country for my mothers 1st anniversary memorial mass which is on the 23rd of Sept 2015. Incase I book my return ticket and attach a copy of the same to my PR application form, would the processing...

Thanks all for your guidance. I have buffered in 10 extra days before I apply for my PR renewal. i.e. 740 days stay in total in Canada.

Hi All, I would be completing 730 days RO in Canada on 22nd June 2015, with 5 entry/exits from June 2010 to June 2015. Please let me know if I should count the day I landed into Canada and the day I departed from Canada(in each of these 5 visits) to arrive at 730 days or are these partial days...

Further my friend is advised to fight out the divorce.i.e. not agree to granting the divorce...what may make her case strong, is that she lives with the parents of the guy-who has recently moved out of the house with his baggage)..thereby she could buy more time ~1 to 1.5 years till settlement...

The PR Card was received in Jan this year. The sponsorship took 2 years to process ....before which they were in a live-in relationship for a year prior to the marriage in 2011.

Yes, they are married for three years and have been living in Canada since then.

Would that help? I wonder. What if she leaves the country after the divorce after applying for a couple of months leave from her work. Returns back and continues to work, living at another address. Maybe entering in at Vancouver or any other Province. Will that be an option?

Yes, you are right. The PR is of the wife. She is married and living with this guy since three years in Canada.Though I wonder why she would have got her PR only this Jan , unless she was on a work permit or study visa. Technically she is living with him for nine months since she got her PR...

Hi All, My friend from Portugal has been married for 3 years to a Canadian (also originally from Portugal), holding a valid PR Card valid till Dec 2019. Now, since she is facing problems in her marriage and her husband wants to call off the marriage and stop sponsoring her as his wife , she...

Thanks Torontonianguy, I preferred not to risk it as I have zero financial reserves, besides I would have not been making it to the funeral anyways. I prefer to visit my mothers grave and offer my respects for the 1st year mass which would be on 23rd Sept 2015 by when I would have got my PR Card...
