    Accidentally put web form to withdraw spousal sponsorship application

    As the childish one who started this thread ( https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/%E2%80%A6.876833/ ), collected info from others, and then deleted all your posts afterwards, I should think it's not worth anyone spending their time assisting you any more.

    YVR Landing as PR without meeting Residency Obligation 730 days

    I got lost in that sentence somewhere. At any rate:I have no opinion / no info on the likelihood or differences between flying or land entry for the PR-with-valid-PR-card (out of compliance) case at all. I could speculate on reasons why it might be different, but I don't think that's very...

    December 2024 - Citizenship Applications

    Are your spouse's LPP (all three, including prohibitions) cleared? If prohibitions are not cleared, then I don't think you can say it's not stuck in security. The exact split between background and prohibitions is not entirely clear to me, but I'm quite certain that at least some of the...

    TRAVELING WITH THE COPR AND IMMIGRANT VISA ON THE PASSPORT

    -If the airlines say it's okay, then getting the visa to remain in the international part of airport is not needed. France's main airports are quite good at this. I suspect even getting the visa will be a problem once they understand. But it's up to you. -Technically you do NOT need to have a...

    French citizens considering Canada – question about Québec vs federal immigration

    It can be highly specific to circumstances and specific programs, so don't want to generalize too much. But in case you describe above, once you get the federal PR, you will have the right to live anywhere in Canada, i.e. do not need to be selected by Quebec to remain in Canada. As I alluded...

    French citizens considering Canada – question about Québec vs federal immigration

    I'm not an expert on this but I think there are some potential issues which need to be looked at carefully, i.e. can cause some problems - albeit temporary usually - with Quebec. That said, you're right in the main that at minimum, settling/trying in some other province for some relatively...

    Spousal outland Sponsorship

    Just tell the truth and you should be fine. Enter it however works in the form, and then you'll have a small space for relationship history - clarify any points that didn't fit in form properly (i.e. start of relationship vs first meeting in person). If you two did not reside together for more...

    November 2024 - Citizenship Applications

    The chances of them being against you having your infant with you are approximately zero. They'll probably be pleased When you get your photo/aoth chance, ask the citizenship judge to hold your baby, they'll be chuffed.

    Spousal sponsorship

    I suggest simply reading the instructions and looking at the form. These are routinely granted to those visiting spouses, esp when spousal spnosorship apps are in progress. By 'routinely' I mean they do not make this difficult nor impose particularly high bars for those already in the country...

    Spousal sponsorship

    I think it would be easier to just apply to extend your stay. I'm not sure it's strictly necessary, but rather than worry about whether the implied status is sufficient, etc., just apply (routinely granted I understand for those with spousal apps) and be certain you are not out of status...

    GCMS notes meaning: NPR Verified?

    If you did not meet the physical presence requirement, you are not eligible for citizenship. It's not a 'technical' requirement, it's statutory - as I understand it. And the statement from the GCMS notes is: "Does not appear to meet the physical presence requirement. Client previously advised...

    GCMS notes meaning: NPR Verified?

    You may need to simply consider whether your attempt to get citizenship via this route is going to work at all, and whether any steps needed to do so are things you are willing to do.

    GCMS notes meaning: NPR Verified?

    Here's a thread on the same topic (or similar anyway) for your interest: https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/gcms-notes-say-i-do-not-appear-to-meet-physical-presence-requirement-referred-to-ps-for-review-decision-what-to-do-now.874393/ I would overall agree...

    April 2025 - Citizenship Applications

    That's good to know actually. You should put a review of a specific one up here. Once when I looked into it, was going to cost a lot of money (gratned also a hell of a lot of stamps), hence why I was a bit cheap. ...But also because the vast majority of stamps were this 'European' style (which...

    Apostille Documents?

    CHeck here: https://ircc.canada.ca/english/information/applications/spouse.asp I see for Argentina 'no special requirements.' This means that most things only need to be translated and the copy of the original (attached to translation) notarised. In most countries you can get this done at once...

    April 2025 - Citizenship Applications

    BTW for scanning: a multifunction printer with a scanner function is what I used for scanning. Tedious but a LOT better than most other approaches where you'd be holding by hand, etc.

    Question about CRA–IRCC status verification and PR residency obligation (730 days)

    No, 'residency' for tax purposes (and for specific purposes of certain benefits) are not linked to residency obligation compliance. Separate concepts in law and practice, and everyone gets this.

    April 2025 - Citizenship Applications

    Info-sharing: yes, Oz will be able to get access to (likely anyway) Five Eyes (Can/US/UK/Aus/NZ) records, question is how quickly and whether an average border control office will be able to do this on-the-spot/immediately or through extra steps, etc. My assumption is it's not so immediate for...

    April 2025 - Citizenship Applications

    We just didn't mention it. Won't hurt to do an LOE that you didn't include it because it hasn't been used in the period or whatever your expalnation is.
