    Proving intent - letter from real estate agent

    Thanks! We are really struggling with this part as it is quite hard to prove intent for a move so far off. My husband will be keeping his current job and working remote, but HR won't officially sign off on a letter to that effect before they negotiate his new contract, and they won't do that...

    Negative Co-vid test required as of Jan 07, 2021 to enter Canada.

    Actually, this new rule doesn't change the pilot program in Alberta. I believe there is a still a push to expand that and I expect with the current spike goes down we will see it rolled out to more airports. When you look at the test positivity rates for that program I think it has been quite...

    Processing time estimate

    canuck78 - The list that I included was pretty much what I had compiled from going through previous posts, but I will take another search through. So much of the "additional info" requests were in regards to proving the relationship between the sponser and applicant, and that won't be an issue...

    Processing time estimate

    Arg. I don't even understand what other people would have as proof when you wait a year for processing. No one quits their job a year early, or gets a new a job a year before you move to a new country.. Here is what we have - Letters from several friends and family confirming we have discussed...

    Tax Question

    My husband is a naturalized US citizen (he is German but he hasn't had tax obligations there for 20 years). He actually got his US citizenship mainly to sponsor me because at the time there was quite a wait to sponsor the spouses of Green Card Holders and my H1-B visa was expiring.... I do have...

    Outland Spousal Processing - Plan to move to Canada summer 2022 - when to file?

    The processing times are so far out that we cannot provide any of those things until we have his PR, or close to it. Though what logical reason would any high income family have for going through the pain of getting PR without intending to move?
