    IME Deadline Passed for Super Visa Extension – Need Advice

    As per https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/medical-asked-again-what-to-do.479614/post-6123621 IRCC sometimes will ask for a new medical for various reasons, such as if an illness was found that they wish to monitor. Importantly, the language of...

    PR Card and Extension with 1.5 years left for RO

    No harm in trying. Odds are better than trying for a PRTD under H&C. Again, the sooner you can arrange to do this, the better. I can't find it now but in I read on this forum that in some cases the CBSA officer will just ask you to report to IRCC instead of writing a report up themselves. (As...

    If PRTD application under H&C considerations is rejected

    Is this still an option? I don't think IRCC is obligated to honour a withdrawal request, instead they can still go ahead and deny. Or even if they honour it, I think they can and may still decide to finish the process of revoking your PR. I've read that PFLs are issued for many other kinds of...

    Immediate Relative information - name misentered in the PR Application (after ITA)

    I don't think so. Did you even have to provide any documents as evidence that he's your father? I thought this was more of a self-report. It's not a material difference, so as long as you can explain why it's spelled differently in some places and demonstrate that despite the spelling, both...

    Forgot to add UCI to application

    What I'd try in this case is to upload the old receipt fee for the original biometrics plus a letter of explanation restating the mistake with the old and new UCI and asking to link them together. As per...

    Documents to add common-law partner post-application

    For travel history free form should be fine. Even if there is a form and space for history, they usually say to add extra history that doesn't fit on an extra page. Anyways I think IMM5652 is something different...

    April 2025 - Citizenship Applications

    For what it's worth, I've been trying this link but wasn't able to successfully create my account until just now. And it's been almost two weeks since I got AOR.

    Residency obligation

    Sometimes if you get approved for a PRTD on H&C, you can safely apply for a PR card too. (Though agree with scylla's caution here.) Hmm. My understanding is if you are short on RO after H&C, you sometimes only get a one-year valid PR card that you then have to renew sooner. Your odds might be...

    PFL - MISREPRESENTATION - NOT MENTIONING COMMON LAW

    I agree with most of your post - especially the bit to lawyer up. (Of course I'm way too late to help OP anyways.) That said, I was in a similar situation. Created an EE profile as single (1), applied after getting ITA still as single (3), and then hit the one year mark to qualify as an...

    ONLINE PR RENEWAL CARD ASKING FOR COMMON-LAW STAT TO UPLOAD?

    Yup, you did so here, https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/renewing-pr-card-online-but-its-asking-for-a-common-law-stat.870707/#post-11052125 From what OP posted in that thread, it seems like it's not required, and as such, the app should not be sent back just...

    Renewing PR Card online - but it's asking for a common law stat?

    Agree with this. However, just wanted to add, if it was me, then I probably would choose to go through the extra pain and submit the extra docs and all that. Particularly if those 100 days are all recent. My (low probability) fear would be that something goes awry with the current renewal and...

    Received PFL for PRTD Application - Need assistance

    In this situation, instead of going for a PRTD, it might have been better to fly back to the US and then try the land border first. The other thing that crosses my mind is - if we could go back in time and do this again, would it have been possible for one parent to stay in Canada and the other...

    If PRTD application under H&C considerations is rejected

    Agree with your post. Just wanted to explain on this point a bit. After doing some digging, I realized that my confusion comes from the Matter of T-, 6 I&N Dec. 638 (BIA 1955) - which I can't find a copy of right now but as explained on page 5 of...

    PR Card and Extension with 1.5 years left for RO

    From https://drivetest.ca/licences/expired-licences-renewals/ if has been expired for less than three years, you can renew it without the written test (you do need a vision test if it's been more than 12 months but someone who can't pass that shouldn't be driving anyways). And from the same...

    PR Card and Extension with 1.5 years left for RO

    The other question I'd have is: what do you need a Canadian DL for if you aren't returning to Canada? If you are returning to Canada, then return first and then figure out the DL once safely inside. Otherwise, I don't quite understand why one would need it.

    If PRTD application under H&C considerations is rejected

    Agreed 100%. Folks who aren't wonks or interested in the super wonky details can probably stop reading here. Interesting. I was under the impression that when presenting oneself at a POE, the legal fiction is that one is not yet in the country until actually admitted for entry. But of course...

    If PRTD application under H&C considerations is rejected

    To add to that great response, I suspect the reason that PRTD refusal rates are higher is because it's done by desk officers at IRCC who specialize in looking at this and have an unlimited amount of time to make a decision after considering all factors. When a CBSA officer makes the call at the...

    PR Card successfully Renewed - H&C grounds / Not meeting RO

    v Agreed. Think this was just OP's way of agreeing with your statement on not pushing the envelope - as OP won't, OP wants to warn others not to either if it's not too late for them to avoid it. (I.e. they should move to Canada NOW before they fail to meet RO rather than wait and let it fall...

    PR Card and Extension with 1.5 years left for RO

    Agree 100%. Of course if OP does want to return it's best to return ASAP - being six months short of RO is bad, but delaying and letting that get larger isn't going to help. As per the OP's link and https://www.ontario.ca/page/exchange-out-province-drivers-licence all that's needed is the...
