Thanks for the info

Hi IMM 5444E. Since the PR card form covers new, renewal and lost/stolen PR Card applicants, I can't sort out which sections are for those landing for the first time. When my partner lands do they fill out their address/ work/ school info of their country or origin as they have not yet been...

Thanks for the links

Hello, My partner is due to arive soon. I have found a useful checklist but I have some questions regarding it. 1. COPR (IMM 5292B) - This is given at time of landing correct? No forms with this heading have been sent to us. All we received was a visa and a generic guide to Canada. 2...

Hello, I am happy to announce that after only just 1 month, my partner has received their visa from the Canadian Consulate in Hong Kong. Total processing time 2 months - 29 days. In the end my sponsorship took longer then the PR application. We are thrilled, but know that there are many...

Thanks for the break down

thanks for all the input

Hi, I do realize that since I am sponsoring my spouse I do not need to provide/meet the minimum income requirements. Other then the letter of employment has anyone submitted their or their partners financial bank statements..... I sort of have a "not required so don't submit" attitude on this...

Hello, Not a pressing question but an important one I think. I have been with my partner since 04 and thus have several thousand photographs of us together for various events vacations etc.. I'm looking for a general census on how many photo's were included with your applications.. thanks...
