    You won't be able to continue working without a valid work permit. You can try to renew/extend your current visa before applying for PR if you're concerned the timeframes may cause you to miss out on working-- I just know they're cracking down on work permit renewals right now, too, so there's...

    Well, if you're opting to do the common-law route, then you should apply in June 2026 and apply for the OWP as soon as you get your AOR. You will have implied status while your sponsor application (and while your OWP application) are in process. And with a bit of luck, you might be able to...

    Hello Brajenta79! Nice to meet you! I wanted to start by replying to this question: you are correct. MIFI is not accepting any new applications for the Spousal Sponsorship/Common-law path until June 2026. That was a decision that was made in July 2025, and it looks like Ankit05's application was...

    Proving cohabitation without joint lease/bills for a same-sex couple outside Canada

    So I can at least speak to my experience proving cohabitation. For context, the timeline of my husband and my relationship/cohabitation looks like this: Oct 2022 - Publicly announced our relationship. Dec 2022 - Got engaged. June 2023 - Moved in together. Aug 2023 - Got married. Nov 2023 -...

    The timeline of 2023 Spouse sponsorship application from Quebec

    Not sure if this is relevant to anyone who is following this thread, but I applied Quebec Inland for Spousal Sponsorship on November 9, 2023. I had a big update on my application yesterday and today. GCKey's latest status for my application is "Final Decision" and my Background check was finally...

    November 2023 **inland** spousal applications

    Latest update was on Sept 13 when ircc extended my medical results through 2026. But no updates since then tho :( The update on the ircc website for processing time indicates there’s about 800 people in front of me and final decision will still take about 2 months.

    US-American transgender high school student, what are my options?

    First, hello! I'm sure my response will seem a little tl;dr but hopefully there will be some insights that will help you make your decisions on how to proceed. I'm by no means an expert, but I'm happy to share what I've learned from my own situation. Storytime: I'm from the US myself, and I was...

    I think technically they want you to stay put in Canada for the whole duration from application submission all the way to the point where you receive your PR Card. Honestly, if you just stay put you won't have any problems, but like, as long as you have a Canadian address and you're not away...

    Thanks for asking! YES! I got an update on Sept 13 -- they extended my medical results, which means I do not have to retake the medical exam (whew!). Since the COPR date and the Medical Expiry date need to be in alignment, this is a GREAT sign that P1/Final Decision/Approval is incoming. It's...

    Quebec Spousal Sponsorship Process Questions

    Processing time for outland was 3-4 years last time I checked. That might have changed slightly due to the switch up in prioritization for outland vs inland processing, but I doubt the change would be that much more expedient. I have been seeing various outland applications getting approved...

    November 2023 **inland** spousal applications

    No PR for me yet. I was contacted on July 10 and asked to provide the remaining amount for my Right to Permanent Residency Fee (I had been 200% sure that I had paid that in full upfront, but I wasn't gonna fight them on it). So I paid the amount they request ($85) immediately, and they...
