    Questions regarding my partner immigrating with me to Canada

    Realistically you need to be focusing on whether remaining in Canada is a possibility. Depending on your profile it may be more difficult than you think. How will you become common law if you don’t want to get married? This may mean a long period of separation since it can be difficult for even...

    Relocating from Other Province to Quebec for PRs

    If you are working remotely for your employer is there a reason you are moving to Quebec? Are you fluent in French? If you think parent sponsorship will be faster if you move to Quebec that is unlikely.

    H&C Humanitarian Ground with/or Without Failed refugee claim

    It is an unusual case because he was not eligible for an asylum claim. The results assume he will eventually be evaluated for PPRA and given his citizenship TDR will always be an issue.

    Asking for a friend (PGWP Holder)

    As a visitor she can’t apply for a WP from within Canada. It used to be possible but not longer possible.

    How do you convince the employer to get LMIA?

    Realistically it is probably too late for the employer to get an LMIA before her WP expires. Many municipal services won’t apply for LMIA and pay for the process. Would suggest they speak to the HR department and bring up the fee and timeline associated with LMIAs. Given the timeline for LMIAs...

    Travelling while in study Permit

    Yes that’s fine. The fact that you applied for PGWP along with the TRV is what should get you entry into Canada.

    URGENT - We did not receive the results of your required medical exam. Check your medical exam request message below for details.

    If you’re on a supervisa you’re visiting Canada not living in Canada so because of that alone don’t think supervisa applicants are considered for this policy. It is really meant for WP and SP holders.

    Asking for a friend (PGWP Holder)

    The employer should be applying asap for LMIA (will need to advertise the job first) if they want to try to hire your friend. This is a long process.

    H&C Humanitarian Ground with/or Without Failed refugee claim

    H&C never prevented a removal from Canada but it was rarely enforced. We are seeing many more cases where removals are being enforced during H&C processing and stays of removals are also being denied if the result of H&C is not imminent. Your lawyer is the only one who can really provide...

    H&C Humanitarian Ground with/or Without Failed refugee claim

    Although the fundamentals of H&C remain the same when you applied for H&C Canada’s doors were wide open to all forms of immigration. That is no longer the case and there are significantly more H&C claims plus a yearly quota that is being enforced so it may be much more difficult to obtain H&C...

    H&C Humanitarian Ground with/or Without Failed refugee claim

    This is a highly unusual case and the basis of the claim is primarily related to PPRA and TSR not H&C.

    Residency obligation

    Wouldn’t recommend renouncing above age 45 with the expectation that you’ll be able qualify again. Probably best not to renounce and see if you end up losing status at a certain point. This plan comes with uncertainty and some other challenges. Only you can determine what is best for you and...

    PR confirmation portal timelines

    @MapleJourney2024 @BlessingsForAll These are not abnormal processing time so would just be patient and not order GCMS notes at this time. March applicants will have likely received P2 before receiving the GCMS notes. Also GCMS notes are very unlikely to give you more information at this...

    2024 - DR2 Centralized Concurrent Processing Pilot Project - Protected person

    That’s great. Would just caution being too excited. Processing and getting to eCOPR and COPR may still take some time. We don’t see many of the pilot programs cases posting about their processing times (especially recently)so it is unclear whether the pilot programs are allocated a portion of...

    Can a refugee invite his/her family to Canada?

    ETAs are genuinely easy to obtain and are not processed manually so unless the applicant has a criminal record or has been removed from Canada they should get an ETA very quickly. Like any other visitor they will be assessed at the border for proof they are a genuine visitor, they have the funds...

    Work permit/study permit transition

    No you will not qualify. You have the ability to keep working under your study permit when you start studying but will have to reduce your work hours to 24 hours a week. As previously indicated you don’t qualify for EI if you can’t work because your WP ends or you change types of permits.

    W1 visa until 2030, can that be used for travel/visit purposes?

    Assume they must have a spouse who has been working in Canada and now has a WP that expires in 5 years and so the spouse has a corresponding SOWP. Yes they can travel to Canada. Whether you can enter is always determined at the border but normally no issue. Have they not been living in Canada...

    CWP/LMIA positive

    Realistically October travel may not be possible. Unless you have your new WP you would be on implied status so if you left Canada you could not return and work.
