Additionally, you asked: "Also can either of these applications bar me from Canada for good if they happen to deny me, or will i simply just have to wait the five years to apply again for the crp?" If you are denied (after applying), then yes, it means you do not meet the requirements to...

scylla is correct about qualifying for rehabilitation. TRPs are granted for exceptional circumstances when an applicant is not eligible for rehabilitation (for example, a dying relative or mandatory job travel). DUIs in the States (US) are generally considered minor in criminality (called...

From my understanding (after speaking with an Immigration Representative and a supervisor at a border crossing) they are reluctant to let you back in, unless you have re-entry documents. The reason being is that you cannot enter under the pretences of visiting because your intention has changed...

PMM (and others who regularly contribute to this forum), I wanted to take a moment and thank you for the time you give to reply to posts on this forum. The information you have contributed has been invaluable to me on more than one occasion (actually keeping me from having to post questions by...

I received my First Stage Approval letter, work permit and study permit - all which was dated April 12, 2012. Just short of one year after applying inland. Wonderful news! :-)

I was able to pay fees online, however they tags and registration would only be able to be mailed to my registered address (even though they have my Canadian address here in Alberta listed as a temporary address change). Fortunately, my family members were able to retrieve my mail from Idaho...

Yes, I applied on my own. Yes, they asked for additional documents. The reason for that is that the police certificates are only good for 3 months from their stamped date. When They are sent to Immigration in Canada for final review and possible approval, the certificates must be current...

I am facing a similar situation. Here is a link to my post. I am interested in what happened with your husband's vehicle. http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/vehicle-reg-import-waiting-for-pr-complications-detailed-t89741.0.html

Here is the link to order an original paper form IMM 5401 from Immigration Canada, they will mail it to you. It takes a few weeks to receive it. https://eservicesak.cic.gc.ca/kms/introinit.do?dispatch=introinit&appno=5401&lang=en

It can take anywhere from 6 months to 3 years. The time frame is partially dictated by what Canadian Consulate office you send your application to. The first assessment of your application is done at the local nation Canadian Visa office you mail your application to. After initial review, your...

I would suggest you read the information at this link http://www.cbsa.gc.ca/security-securite/admiss-eng.html If you do not own property, do not have a job, do not attend school, and have no strong ties to your home nation, it is unlikely you will be able to satisfy to the border officer that...

I am not sure that indulging the rants of someone young and unsatisfied with his life is a good thing, but here goes my two cents: I have a US Passport, for most countries that is equivalent to a Canadian Passport (for travel purposes). I gave up my life in the States for my daughter and I to...

I agree with PommeDeRoute, the best route is to submit an Application for Permanent Residency - Family Class and have your spouse sponsor you. My advice is to read the instructions very carefully and be prepared for a 4-12 week time period to get the appropriate documents in order to submit the...

The name change after marriage is optional, not required. I did not see you indicate whether you had Canadian PR or not, but in order to change your name in Canada you must at least have been granted PR. I am not sure what province you are in, but here is the link to Service Alberta. If you...

For some reason I could not post to the forum directly, so I sent this as a PM. I am copying it so it can help others. First go here: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/rehabil.asp Scroll to the bottom where it says: You will need to follow the instructions in a very...
