In my case, they did invite me for a test at exactly the 1 year mark in November 2018. HOWEVER, I had emailed them at least a month prior to that and told them that I will be travelling between so & so dates. Clearly the officer who sent the invite didn't pay attention. After getting the invite...

Anybody has a clue if it's possible and/or worthwhile to request a change in the processing office from Mississauga to elsewhere...anywhere? I'd happily take a flight to freakin' Yukon/Nunavut from Toronto, if it meant I could get the test invite soon enough!

One final question: When she first entered Canada via an international flight 4 months ago, she went through a kiosk and didn't get a stamp in her passport. Subsequently, when she returned from the US via land border with me, and via international flight from Dominican Republic, each time her...

Thanks for answering! Quick question - is there a specific criteria for applying for visitor extension, Or is it entirely up to the officer's discretion?

Hello Folks! I am a Canadian PR holder, and my wife is a British national who's in Canada at the moment living with me as a visitor. She entered Canada 4 months ago on eTA, and has travelled to the US and then back to Canada with me a couple of times since. We are thinking of permanently moving...

I actually didn't 'miss' the test, I had informed them via web form well in advance about my travel dates and my inability to attend a test between those dates, but they invited me within that travel period regardless. Then after the test invite, I informed them again that you've ignored my...

Hey guys, This is my timeline: App Sent: Nov 2017 AoR: Jan 2018 In Progress: Feb 2018 FP request: July 2018 FP sent: July 2018 Test invite: Nov 2018 (they shouldn't have, because I had already mailed them to inform that I will be travelling from Oct to mid-Nov) And since then, I am still...

Thank you! Perhaps I should play it safe and book a return ticket for her, eh? Even though we won't be using it; a fully refundable ticket maybe...

Thanks for responding! So what did your wife declare as her purpose of visit? Did she honestly say that you guys are planning to file an inland application once she's in Canada? This is the part I am curious about...

Hello, I have asked this question in a separate thread as well, but maybe I will get better traction in this existing thread :) I am an Indian citizen with PR in Canada, residing in Toronto. I am getting married later this year in India. My partner is a British citizen with UK passport, even...

Hello, I am an Indian citizen with PR in Canada, residing in Toronto. I am getting married later this year in India. My partner is a British citizen with UK passport, even though she has lived in India pretty much all her life. We are planning to travel back together soon after the wedding (she...

AoR received!!! App sent: Nov 13, 2017 App delivered: Nov 16, 2017 AoR received: Jan 18, 2018

You decided to send your application with exactly 1095 days?! You're quite a daredevil, my friend. Good luck, though.

Please update my details in the spreadsheet: Application Mailed: 11/13/2017 Application Delivered: 11/16/2017 (signed for by Ryan S) Location: Toronto Number of applicants: Single Physical Presence: 1105 days

How do you know it's per calendar year? Correct me if I am wrong but nowhere in the rules does it talk about the calendar year bit; it just talks about 183 days or more in the previous 4 years, no? What am I missing?

I see no reason to discuss UK's citizenship rules here. Yes, UK does ask you to be on ILR (aka PR) status for only 12 months before applying for citizenship; however, getting PR in the UK is way tougher than Canada at the moment. So there are both pros & cons. I know this from personal...
