Sorry, that isn't what I asked either. Can she sign up BEFORE since she already has this approval or not.

Thanks! But what I asked was whether she can sign up for the RAMQ having been approved already, not about the health card.

My wife has her approval for residency, we have the appointment set in Montreal for her "landing" to sign the appropriate papers, and the letter we got says she can sign up for the RAMQ right away but a phone call to them created nothing but confusion on the part of the people answering the...

Thank you. That's good to know. I guess we just have to hope the visa comes with plenty of time to activate it. How long are you usually given to "land"?

Unfortunately they can't go through his wife, it's he that got the job that gave them both their visas. So he's the principal applicant no matter what. I'm just surprised, I've kept looking around and nowhere on the Canadian government site (which is usually quite thorough about these things)...

My wife is visiting, got an extension, and shortly after we've gotten the visa approval. She's "outland" but the government knows she's here visiting. Is it going to be necessary for her to PHYSICALLY enter the country again just to activate this visa and change her status? Or is that something...

Thank you. There are audio courses yes, but it won't change the written part of the test. I just can't imagine there isn't something for dyslexic people. What about blind people?

I have a friend who is in Canada on a work visa and can now begin his and his wife's process for permanent residence. Apparently he has a French test to take. Here is the thing, my friend is also dyslexic. Learning anything with text is already difficult and nobody teaches French phonetically so...

No, I thought I was clear when I said "If one were to take the route of exiting and reentering the country...". If one WERE to. Just for arguments sake. I just thought if you said 18 months because I think that's about how long the approvals are taking right now it might look, I don't know...

Any chance anyone can give me any input on this?

If anyone can help it would clear up a lot of question marks for my wife and I. She's American, I'm Canadian, we're living in Quebec, she came in with me in September We began the Canada application for sponsorship, got it approved no problem. Just sent in the Quebec one, still waiting. Now...

Just filling out the Quebec forms for sponsorship and they ask for proof of address wherein they say you can provide a bill from "cablodistribution". Is internet ok for that? The thing is we don't pay for electricity or water in our apartment, it's included. We don't have work yet. We don't...

Ok, fantastic. Thank you all. :)

It says you're supposed to send completed forms to your sponsor first.

Ok, quick summary. Wife is visiting Canada with me, I'm Canadian. We both moved to Canada from France after starting an outland application and got through immigration no problems that way. She was given no limitation, therefore, a full visitor stay by the agent we spoke to. My wife has to send...

Hi everyone, Just wanted to say thanks again for all the replies. We did cross the border at Montreal on our way to Quebec City where we now are, but it was not completely as easy as suggested. It was a three hour process of going from regular customs (1 hour in line) to an actual immigration...

Hey everyone, You've all been so helpful, thank you. Well of course you were all correct. This guy has no experience whatsoever with Canadian Immigration law. My wife and I spoke with CanadaVisa.com today on a conference call and they basically confirmed everything you guys had said. Outland vs...

;D ;D Ok, cool. That was funny, by the way, loved your reply. :D We've reached out to CanadaVisa filling out one of their free assessment forms and they've said they'll get back to us in a couple of days (cutting it a bit close but it's fine), not because we don't believe any of you but only to...

Hi again, everyone... Spoke to a lawyer today (admittedly not an immigration lawyer, but a Canadian lawyer of a friend). He said, that under no circumstances should my wife go into the country as a visitor having applied as an outland applicant with the application fee having been paid already...

As others have suggested, and as I'm now learning, saying what you've told me to say constitutes not being upfront about our situation and an application that has been paid for and is underway. So saying she's just visiting goes, if I'm not mistaken, against what others are saying is the right...
