    Canadian PR holders travelling to U.S

    Thanks for the replies. Do you have to apply for a multiple entry visa or is it just a general visa you apply for and they decide what they're going to give you? Also do you need to be going on a vacation or something in order to apply? The reason I want her to get one is so she can go with me...

    Canadian PR holders travelling to U.S

    Hi, my wife has her Canadian PR and I am a Canadian citizen. Since she is not from a visa exempt country she needs a visa to enter the states. I have heard from a few people that the visa may be good for 10 years and multiple entry's. I haven't seen anything on the American consulate's website...

    Inside Canada now. Easiest way to "land"?

    In this case because you dont have tax returns or a job, and you are just moving back to Canada, I think you need to show more proof that you plan to stay in Canada. A job (or atleast offer) and a lease might be required but I dont really know. Again you should ask in your own new post because...

    Inside Canada now. Easiest way to "land"?

    ok, so I called today. All I can say is what a B|tch haha. Took her about 5 minutes to understand what I was asking and what my wife's status was, and I think I was pretty clear.

    BC Health Insurance

    My wife has been in Canada for over 3 months on a TRV. Is there any chance they would waive the 2 month waiting period for new immigrants since she's already been living in Canada? I just found out a week ago my wife is pregnant so having BC health insurance as soon is possible would be great. I...

    Inside Canada now. Easiest way to "land"?

    So my wife got her passport and COPR in the mail today! :D. We are inside Canada now but she's on a TRV. I'm thinking the easiest way to land would be to travel to the states and come back, however she will need a visa to enter the States. Anyone know anything about getting a visa for America...

    Wife's visa accepted. Can she stay in Canada on her TRV when sending passport

    So I e-mailed the high comission in Singapore and they informed me it was fine for my wife to stay here while sending in her passport.

    Wife's visa accepted. Can she stay in Canada on her TRV when sending passport

    Thanks for the reply PMM On this appendix 'A' it asks you how you want Singapore to return the passport: airmail, registered mail, courier, or in person. On the next page it tells you to send them a Self addressed envelope for them to return the passport in. It also says if you choose to have...

    Wife's visa accepted. Can she stay in Canada on her TRV when sending passport

    Thanks RobsLuv I dont think this appendix A is anywhere on the website. Its just a piece of paper atached to the letter requesting the passport. It says they need to be informed if there was any changes to the family (divorce, births, deaths) etc, so maybe thats all this form is for. Either way...

    Close but not quite ;) We actually applied for a TRV before doing the PRV and stated that I was doing this because I didnt want to be seperated from my wife since I had to return to Canada, and that I would submit the PRV while we were in Canada. We were told that a TRV could / would not be...
