    I think we would still need a student visa but fr my understanding we would not b required to pay international fees. I will do some research on this during the coming week. CIC needs to understand that we have paid our debt and need to have the privilege of advancing ourselves. I cannot...

    Hey guys, to my knowledge, the spouse has to be inside Canada to qualify to apply for an open permit upon the principal applicant's receipt of AIP. I was informed of that fact by a CIC agent when I personally wanted to get information on this issue. It is very disappointing. We so desperately...
