Veradis, Her best bet is to call CIC and report him, unfortunatly since he is under the old rules there is not much she/he can do :( The day he landed he become a full PR with no conditions attached.

I am so so sorry to hear that. I wish you all the best and you are in my thoughts.

Hey All! I dont post on here very much on here anymore, but I just wanted to share the group Mexican Spouses on FB! A lot of people from this forum post on there about pre arrival (immigration) and post-arrival (settlement) so if anyone is interesting in joining heres the link...

Our process took and 6 and half months, at that time it was taking three months just to be approved as a sponsor so our breakdown is this: April - July 2012: missisauga, waiting for sponsorship approval Late July: Approved as a sponsor, package sent to Mexico City August 2012: AOR from Mexico...

My spouse got his health card yesterday! We are done with immigration for now!! Yay!! :D Just citizenship is left :)

Not to worry then, only Mexican applicants no longer send in the police check with the initial application! it was a rule that changed last year but for Mexicans only. The PGR and SSP are in reference to Mexican police checks so only mexican nationals have to get them after the recieive a letter...

Lena, what country are you applying from?

I am Canadian born, but my whole family (including both parents) are italian, born and raised in Italy.. I am curious, why do most of you say that is it better to live in Canada?

hey cuba thread, I have a question for you on behalf of my friend. If her boyfriend is granted a visitor visa from Cuba, does he still need to pay an exit permit? Has this been taken out of all of Cuba, or only some cities? Thanks!

Went to get my spouses medicals done in oakville.. We had an instance during our process that the embassy could not find our medicals, our medical office helped us out so much to help things get sorted out. I reccomend them to anyone going to get their medicals in the Toronto area, worth the drive!

Just read this news article about another immigration fraud at work, it makes me so sad. Incase anyone is interested: http://www.bramptonguardian.com/news/article/1577414--marriage-to-cuban-leaves-woman-heartbroken

Another update from us: My spouse got his PR card last week in the mail! :)

Patiently waiting for my hubbies PR card, then we can close the door on our immigration journey.... well until citizenship time I guess, lol!

Lol, I wasn't comparing mexico city to cuidad juarez, those are the places where medicals are now avaliable in Mexico which are a bit of a stretch to Mexicans living in the south of mexico and a plane ride or two day bus trip is needed, which is why Merida was a much better option. I find it...

Congrats to everyone that recieived their PPR's! Its a great feeling and time, enjoy it! :)

Adjusting to life in Canada and leaving behind your old one is really hard. In our case, we were really happy in Mexico, so it was hard to give it all up and come to Canada where we would have to start from the bottom again. Heck, it took me maybe 10 months to readjust to here! Its a process...

Hey All, Its been a while since I posted so I thought I would give an update. My spouse has now been a PR for one month! We have made so much progress. Being a PR is entirely different then being in Canada on a visitor visa, the possibilities are endless. In Early 2013 he will be entering...

Hey all, I haven't posted much lately, but I just wanted to extend the invite for anyone who wanted to join the FB page, Mexican Spouses, you have to request to have permission to join (for privacy for all of us) There we talk about everything and anything, from immigration, to where to find...

We took a little more then two months after the police checks were submitted to get PPR.. But our medicals also werent found in time which caused them to move on to the next file.. It will come soon! I know its hard but you are almost at the end :)

Sorry to hear about your troubles RIUgirl. It sucks that you were ill advised which has lead to a super long processing time. The good news is that, once Mexico City recieves your file, and send you an AOR (acknowledgment of receipt) which also comes with the PGR and SSP, you are very close to...
