    Adding Common-Law Partner to PR Application After P2

    Since you have a lawyer - ask them.

    Mistake in COPR

    If it's a small error - really a typo - and just in the place of birth, personally I think that's not worth getting corrected. YMMV.

    PR card renewal obligations

    It is not contrived. An example in a different thread - in the last few days - of someone submitting (an /urgent/ request!) with a 250 page pdf. The question, I believe, is not what is a better explanation (debatable but I take your point) - it's what conclusions the examiner might make. Which...

    Different name on passport and PR

    Generally, no: they're going to want to see some document that confirms a change of name, i.e. something that links/confirms that Person A is now known as Person B. It could possibly bear a different name in other jurisdictions but best is to find out, based on the legal framework that lets you...

    Adding Common-Law Partner to PR Application After P2

    Did you submit these documents? (This is actually close to common sense, you'll need to revise the docs you originally submitted and add docs from your partner 'as if' you were submitting a new, completely revised app with your partner. 1. Yes. Indeed, I think you must do so. 2. No. If you do...

    PR card renewal obligations

    To state the obvious: I did not claim it always works. It is one method of many they may use to check/double-check cases which are otherwise fine, or borderline. I could speculate, but the usage may be more useful in one direction (finding contradictory information) than another (confirming...

    PR card renewal obligations

    Re: kids. My point was that the docs suggested to submit (eg Noa, lease, job records) mostly wouldn't apply. They would have others such as school records if of age and doctors visits etc, but also may lack things like drivers licenses and other photo ID and bank accounts.

    February 2025 - Citizenship Applications

    You can apply two-three days after the oath (it's possible you could earlier but that's the standard warning), and check the passport office near you for the urgent processing options available. There are 2-3 days and next day options.

    PR card renewal obligations

    No. They do NOT ask you to provide accounting for every single day of physical presence. They just ask for two pieces of evidence that you were in Canada - at all. Again, not needed to cover every single day (and of course a lease on its own does not 'prove' one was in Canada all that time...

    Application for Canadian Citizenship - A Comprehensive Guide

    If you look at the form here (which is, I believe, identical to what is online or in the online instructions): https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/canadian-citizenship/adult-minor/how/adult-forms-documents.html And read, you answer 'yes' to outside Canada more...

    PR card renewal obligations

    For the record, while more than strictly required, that's probably within a reasonable amount of information to provide. Frankly the two lease agreements or two NOAs or one of each would probably have been fine, too. Providing more than those FIVE pieces of evidence - three more than what they...

    PR card renewal obligations

    No. They ask for two pieces of evidence - provide two pieces of evidence. Don't provide a thick book - provide what they ask for. The idea is NOT to provide accounting for as many days as possible - the idea is to provide truthful, credible information in the form, and some basic evidence of...

    PR Sponsored Spouse wants to Separate

    She is not required to renounce her PR and indeed, whether she renounces it or not, that has no bearing on whether you will have any ties. What will determine any (legal) ties you two will have is whether your marriage is dissolved legally (e.g. by divorce). That's it.* As far as I'm aware...

    PR Card Renewal – Urgent Processing Submitted Sept 23, Travel Oct 20 — Advice & Reassurance Needed

    The bolded bits above contradict each other. There is no-one for whom a 250-page PDF makes it 'easy to review.' But what's done is done. 1. If you had checked the forum here entitled 'permanent residency obligations', you'd have seen that many have their applications go through quite quickly...

    Question about updating marital status in my PR application

    I don't know your situation with the H&C application - so take these points with caution and speak to a lawyer (esp if you already have one) if you are uncertain. Important question: when you say you 'entered into a common-law relationship', do you mean you began living with each other...

    Getting married after AOR – How to add spouse to PR application?

    Suggest better to post in the forum which has her application type (EE?) as well. 1. Yes. 2. She will need to update all docs submitted (eg IMM0008) in revised form, including you. You will need to provide the docs you would have provided had you been included in the beginning (yes...
