I became a PR on Oct 3rd 2013. I went to my final interview and was told to bring everything with me and it would take 1.5hrs. I arrived they checked my passport asked me to sign a piece of paper asked my husband if he agreed with everything in the application. That was it. We were there less...

So I gave birth and spent 3000 as this was before I received my Medicare. 2100 was for the Dr to attend the delivery which is paid upfront (at the clinic I was at) the rest of the money paid was Dr visits at 50each and blood tests. The lakeshore general hospital charge 5000 a night this doesn't...

Bump

I gave birth here in Canada in May. I called cic when I was pregnant and was told I didn't have to call. I have now had a DM letter and at the bottom it states to tell them of any changes including birth or adoption. Im very confused and probably sounding really stupid. I have been told they...

Anyone?

Ok still a little confused. When I needed my medical I called immigration to tell them that I was pregnant and got a deferred form from the Dr for the xray. Basically immigration didn't care that I was pregnant and was told I didn't need to tell them. On my application I wasn't pregnant when I...

Congrats! I had my baby in may this year. I called cic and they were basically like why are you calling if you're already in country it doesn't change anything. Im in Quebec and i had to wait 90days before I could apply for health care as you need a letter from cic saying you've been accepted...

What happens at the appointment usually? Thank you for your help.

So Im not sure if Im in the right place for this. I received an email today from cic stating my application has been processed and to expect a call from the Montreal office for an appointment. I am in Canada (obviously lol) When should i expect a call? What do i take with me? What do they do...

I guess you've got this sorted now due to the date, but I thought Id write an answer that I found for anyone else that might need to know. The photos can be done at the pharmacy, they have to be a specific size which is different to any passport size as I found out today, you only need 1 photo...

Im from the UK and hubby is Canadian. You have to pay for any health care given until you are eligible for health care in your province. In Quebec you have to apply and it takes 3 months if you're from out of Canada but if you're pregnant you are covered. Again here in Quebec you need proof...

So I went to the CLSC today and they took my form and papers to send off and i was told it would be 2-4 weeks. The website states if you're from outside Canada it takes 3 months but I am covered during this time because I am pregnant. I received a receipt from the CLSC that has my name and a...

It was on his application to sponsor pack and was also on the letter they sent out stating that he is responsible for me for 3 years after I get residency and that no benefits can be claimed within this time but it doesn't state what kind of benefits.

Yeah sorry if my post was unclear. My husband is Canadian, and I will have been in Canada for almost 18months when the baby is born. My concern was my husband isn't allowed certain benefits as it would cancel our immigration application. I was wondering if the child tax benefits were included...
