    Canadian Study permit while having an expired PR status

    You get admission first, declare her as an international student since PR is probably not recoverable at this stage. After admission, it's provincial attestation, and then study permit application. If you can't get the PR renounced in time and/or submit the study permit application in time...

    No doctor, I wasn't high every single time I went on a murderous rampage, it was just that one time. ZOMG I got referred for psych eval because I used weed once ages ago!

    Help… stressed about OWP and maintained status

    This is one of the commonly asked questions on this forum: try a search and you will find a lot of discussion. Long story short, applying for OWP gives maintained status. Otherwise, apply for visitor record 30 days before the current visitor status expires.

    Did my student visa cancelled?

    Be aware that a lot of study permit rules and procedures changed in the last couple of months. Make sure you are well informed before (re)applying.

    My study visa worry

    All I can tell you is to be patient. X-rays are not definitive. They might have seen marks on your lungs that could be TB, could be from your asthma, or something else. That's why the additional tests were requested.

    Unique Case - Study and work permit together

    Why not get sponsored for PR then? No permits required and lower tuition fees. OP literally asked if they can abandon/cancel their study permit to go for a work permit instead - meaning that studying was never the point to begin with. Not my fault if you didn't read the thread carefully before...

    My study visa worry

    Have you ever had TB? Sounds like they saw something on your chest X-rays that needs further review. The update says they are reviewing your results so I'm not sure what your question is.

    How to prove common-law relationship and why is it required?

    You're really making it easy to poke holes in your story. Sorry in advance but I can't resist. Oh, look, fiancee is another way you could have introduced this person instead of "common-law partner". I genuinely don't think anyone ever uses that term colloquially. You may not think twice of it...

    How to prove common-law relationship and why is it required?

    Not going to address the defensive attitude again. If anything it reinforces the points I'm making. I do have an honest suggestion. If you really are in a committed relationship and wish to demonstrate that to IRCC, common law is basically married with very minor differences. Why not just get...

    How to prove common-law relationship and why is it required?

    You do you, friend. Getting defensive probably isn't the best idea. As the above poster said, at no point did you mention that you've been dating for 10 years. Usually people are worried that they are accidentally common law, because that attracts additional scrutiny. In my few years browsing...

    Family member confusion

    I'm pretty sure you have to declare the names and addresses of family members in the application anyway. Relative is a broader term. Maybe the application asks about relatives in a different question, and maybe it doesn't. Probably safer to answer yes unless there is another question about...

    Study permit application refused on the basis of lack of authentic documents

    Wow, you mean an actual law firm not a consultant? That's really unfortunate. Either way, good luck!

    Visa Deactivation Email received from IRCC - One week past to my Flying Dates

    This sounds like bad news. If you didn't provide any new information to IRCC then they may have discovered something new. Could be a fake document submitted with your application, or something else. Either way, the main thing you should be doing is re-checking your application and all...

    Not meeting RO and sponsoring spouse

    Not only is the current RO very generous, but enforcement seems to be lax. Come 2027, the person doing all this math to push the envelope on top of all of this may try to spin a H&C sob story.
