My partner landed this spring and he is now attending full-time French classes. I'm wondering, for budgeting purposes, if anyone here knows how often they disburse the financial aid payments. He received a payment for the first two weeks of classes (last week of August and first week of...

My partner filed an online application on January 10 to extend his Visitor Record status. On January 11 he was notified that the application was received. A few days ago (January 28) he got an email that the application had been updated and he should check his application status and messages on...

I've heard of people going to the border to get a new visitor record when the current one runs out. Has anyone done that successfully in the last few months? My partner has sent his CSQ and RPRF fee in the last few weeks and we were hoping to get a decision before it came time to renew the VR...

My common-law partner and I went to the United States to visit family last month and then returned to Canada 4 days later. When he crossed the border into Canada this time, the officer did not stamp his passport nor issue a new Visitor Record which I suppose could mean that he is allowed to...

Hi, I need help with a few things due to serious procrastination. I used to be active on this board, but lately I haven't had time and I'm out of touch. My two specific questions are number at the end of this post. My boyfriend (conjugal partner) came to live with me in Canada from the United...

For Questions 28 and 29, "Have you and your sponsor lived together?" and "Are you currently living with your sponsor?" I'm not sure how to answer. I lived with him in November 2008 for 25 days but that is all the time I could get off my studies, and he has been living with me now for just over...

I know I should write more details about our relationship before asking this question, but I don't have the time to write all the details at the moment and I want feedback on something specific. More details at the end, but first: The question is: How important do you think it is to prove...

I hate to admit it, but I'm several years behind in filing my income tax returns. I've been a full-time student for a few years and there always seems to be a more urgent deadline, plus my taxes are a little more complicated by the fact that I have sole proprietorship income from an Internet...
