    Sponsoring Japanese spouse - apps submitted - questions on what happens next.

    My wife is Japanese. We arrived/returned to Canada December 2013. When we arrived in Calgary, I told the first CBSA agent that I'm a Canadian returning to live Canada after living in Japan for 12 years. I told him my wife was going to "visit" my family and I until her PR application was...

    Ways of bringing my wife from india

    Because the whole process is a joke. CIC and the Canadian Government don't care about reuniting families; it's all about business.

    Appealing misrepresentation. ..

    From personal experience, I have dealt with Japanese Immigration for 12 years, a third of my life. In Japan, I helped (interpreted & translated legal documents) for individuals who overstayed their visas, gone through divorce, etc. I saw a lot of heartbreak and suffering. It wasn't pleasant...

    Appealing misrepresentation. ..

    If you aren't ready, nor willing, to accept constructive criticism, it would be in your best interest not to ask about your case. With that being said, I accept your apology. No one is saying that your husband won't eventually get his PR. I think he probably will get his PR, however, I think, as...

    Sponsoring my Korean wife for permanent residency

    I don't want to frighten you, but just because your fiance is a graduate from a top Korean university doesn't necessary guarantee him a job in his field. I moved back to Alberta from Japan in December 2013. In the last month or so, I have met a lot of PR's looking for work. The majority have...

    Canadian living and working outside of Canada

    You can try and contact companies that you would be interested working for. Email them and see if you get a response. I wouldn't get too stressed out about providing proof. Every VO is different. When I sent my additional proof, I also sent a strongly worded letter, telling the VO that my time...

    Canadian living and working outside of Canada

    Depends on the VO, I think. When we applied, I just sent a letter from my parents and sister declaring my intent to reestablish in Canada. Manila contacted my wife asking for more proof. I sent: 1) Another letter by my parents indicating we would be living with them until finding our own place...

    Canadian living and working outside of Canada

    Yes. The wife and I were living in Japan when we applied for her PR. At the time we sent the application, I had been living exclusively outside of Canada for ten years. I explained that in my letter. The letter was not that detailed.

    Canadian living and working outside of Canada

    Can I send more proof of relationship?

    I wouldn't send more proof until CIC contacts you. I'm sure everything will be fine. Just relax.
