    Dependent Child Sponsorship -2024

    No, it will be signed by a CBSA agent when you arrive/'land' in Canada and complete the formalities. You should not sign it until the officer upon landing asks you to. Note that signing the COPR is an 'oath' - you attest all the information is correct. Once completed and signed, that is a...

    Spousal sponsorship

    You'd have to physically move, get all ID etc., and document those changes to IRCC. How effective this is we don't really know.

    My Sponsor lives in Québec but we intend to live outside Quebec

    The truth is we have very little concrete information on how they approach these things. But: because the difference in processing time is so VERY long, and the general 'mood' in Quebec on this issue, and the general fed moves to slow immigration - it is prudent to do as much as you can to have...

    Options to continue Canadian PR and spouse sponsorship

    As general rule, if you want to keep it: move as soon as possible, period. You don't say what month in 2022 you became a PR. If it was after today's date, you could still get/remain compliant just by returning (test is whether you've been outside Canada > 1095 days since landing.) I largely...

    Need Advice: Non-accompanying spouse/child in EE profile!

    Since this thread was started - in last couple of months? beginning of year? - i.e. more or less since the last posts here - there have been press reports (and presumably on the board here in the express entry forum) about IRCC 'cracking down' on this, and forcing applicants to add their spouses...

    Not family sponsorship, post in the appropriate forum.

    Staying in Quebec temporarily after landing

    I think you'll be fine, don't worry about it - what you have mentioned above should be fine. I've no idea about the Quebec health insurance/once every seven year exemption. As far as I'm aware your health insurance shouldn't be valid if you're living abroad, but again, I don't know about that.

    Staying in Quebec temporarily after landing

    Small clarification: you mean that you and the sponsor live abroad and are coming to settle in Canada, and when you arrive (together) you will just stay in Quebec for a few weeks? And after that continue on to province of destination?

    February 2025 - Citizenship Applications

    For the January applications that have rec'd oath invitation already, the most common mode is less than a month for the invitation after LPP. By nature that's a sample of ones that have gone more quickly. Invitations usually < a month before ceremony (fairly often ~2 weeks).

    visitor record while applying for spousal sponsorship

    It will probably be okay. Best thing to do is to submit the spousal sponsorship ASAP. Don't worry about the visitor record application now - what's done is done. Get the spousal sponsorship in.

    Error in marriage certificate

    Well, again - nationality doesn't have any direct bearing on validity of the marriage (and marriage certificate) - possibly apart from some unusual countries/cases. And you say the docs have you as Canadian in other places - which logically should not be a thing. So personally I'd be...

    Error in marriage certificate

    Hard to say. Do you mean the translation or the original? If it's the translation - get it translated again. That should be quick. If it's the original: well, my own view, this likely does not make the marriage certificate invalid, so not really significant. But I can't say how IRCC will approach.

    Travelling with Minor PR Applicant – Can I Accompany Instead of Parent?

    1) You should be all right to accompany him (and fairly sure I've seen others have done this) but I'd suggest your father contact CBSA to confirm. Note, you don't say but it may be relevant whether you are over 18 or not; how old the younger brother is (although adult age is 18, there's at least...

    I have got Request Letter (evidence) after receiving Citizenship Test letter 2 weeks ago

    It's not entirely clear what next steps (a few possibilities) but if your AOR is late May, too early to be worried. Just wait some.

    Renewing PR - Originally sponsored by ex-spouse, now divorced

    As noted, it's divorced, but they do not even ask for the supporting documentation. Otherwise the fact you were sponsored / now divorced and are now applying to renew 'on your own' has no bearing, nothing to be concerned about. Your PR status is your own.

    Spousal sponsorship

    1. You can do either. Personally I'd suggest outland - there are no longer big disadvantages for most. (The longer processing times for inland may be a mirage, but why risk it?) 2. Yes. 3. She does not necessarily need to leave - can apply to extend, routinely granted for those with PR apps in...

    April 2025 - Citizenship Applications

    Yes, I understand that each of the texts is in a different language. Is one the translation of the other? If so, you don't need to have the hindi text translated into English (again).
