Hello, My wife is Japanese and her signature on her passport is in kanji (chinese characters), but today at the medical check they asked her to sign in letters. We were wondereing if she has to sign the immigration forms in letters or the same as her passport's signature (kanji)? Or they dont...

Hello, this may sound a stupid question, but I was just wondering if it's better to postpone the medical check when you get a stomach flu the day before? Its a check so obviously they will see that you are sick, but then it is not something that can affect the immigration process right? Since...

Nokmdk, Your sponsor has to be residing in canada at the time you receive you PR. Even if you get accepted while your sponsor is working in a different country you will have to wait until he goes back to Canada before the immigration officer at the airport can approve of your PR (if I understood...

Hello all! I was wondering with of the following ways would be the fastest in the process of obtaining my wife's PR. Since she stayed in Canada for more than 6 months, she will have to get a police check (finger prints and stuff) from the RCMP. There are two ways to do apparently. 1) Request...

Ok, I just got my answer from somewhere else and just for people with a similar case who are wondering if we have to register our marriage in the registre de l'etat civil du Quebec when living abroad, the answer is no, we dont have to.

NK, i dont really know what kind of marriage certificate you get in canada outside of quebec, but when you applied from Japan did you send only your japanese certificate (if you were married in japan) with the translation, or you also had to get one from the canadian governement (like register...

Thank you NK for telling me about your own experience! I will definitely use the lease from my sister's boyfriend. I can sign the original a little later just to be sure. Another question that I have concerning the registre de l'état civil du Québec and a wedding outside Quebec. Since we were...

Hello, I am applying as a sponsor from Japan where I live with my wife (for those that didnt see my previous posts). In the case where the sponsor applies from outside of canada they ask for proofs of settlements in canada (job contract, lease, etc.) and a plan. I wrote down a plan for them...

Thank you again PMM ;)

Hello! I am sorry if I am asking a question that was answered before, but i couldnt find any posts answering it.. Its quite simple though. Im just wondering how some dates should be filled if we dont remember the exact dates. For example, the time my wife met my friends for the first time. I...

Thank you PMM!

Hello again! I am about to send all my application forms and my wife's to CIC, but before I do, I have one little question about jobs. Not long after sending the application forms, I am planning to change job in Japan. I was wondering if on the form where they ask me to give information about...

Thank you all for your answers!!! I will try to gather as many proofs as possible. I guess since my wife and I have been together for 6 years already they will expect us to send more proofs than someone who has been in a relationship for less than a year.. Thank you ThirstyDeer for mentioning...

Hello, I am not very afraid of being refused as a sponsor on the ground of a non-genuine relationship, but just to be sure, i would like to give as many supporting documents as possible. I have many pictures that i can send (my wedding, and the 5 years of life together). But thats almost it...

Thank you thaiguy for the reply. My wife worries about the passport if we decide to apply from inside Canada. She worries that if something happens to her family (sickness, death, etc..) while she doesn't have her passport, she wouldn't be able to go back to Japan right away. So if we apply...
