Hehe thank you! It is a bit of an alias for me. My boyfriend gave me the nickname "Bunny", so on any kind of forum websites where I don't want to use my standard user name that I use for Facebook or other personal accounts, I use ____Bunny.. ____ being what the website is related to :). And...

Thank you so much for your reply! As far as #1 and #2 are concerned, I wasn't quite sure if I could be added to his bank account, but you clarified that one for me! Also, on his own, he made me the beneficiary to his life insurance when he got his new job. This was both unexpected and...

After reading through the options I have as far as potentially becoming a permanent resident/citizen of Canada, the common-law portion has left me a bit confused. After 12 months of "living" with your Canadian partner (as an American, if that matters), you can all of the sudden become common law...

I can see your concerns. I'm not confident in my cars ability to make it to Canada, and I'm also not very familiar with the rules of bringing a vehicle there. I normally fly by plane for this reason, but given the duration of my trip, I'm going to be bringing more clothes/personal belongings...

In a couple of weeks, my Canadian boyfriend will be driving down to get me, then we'll make our way back over the border together. I'm hoping to stay for 6 months. I was wondering what they would think if I brought my belongings in clear storage bins VS suitcases. I'm HOPING they would...

Oooh alright. Mine is just a cat, so I'm bringing her in the cabin with me. Thanks anyways! :)

Good to hear, steaky! Here's another little question, if you don't mind sharing your experience. At security before boarding your plane, do you take your pet out before they send the carrier through the bag scanner? I can't imagine that sending my cat through there would be completely safe! I...

Hey everyone! I just have a quick question that shouldn't be too difficult to answer. I know that bringing an open bag of cat or dog food across the border is a 'no', but what about treats? Today I bought my cat a bag of treats that are supposed to be 'calming'. I'm directed to give them to her...

No. We have been in a long distance relationship about a year. I'm visiting him for an extended amount of time to see how things work out and if things continue to be great, we'll get married and apply for my PR. I just wouldn't have (or want, to be honest) anyone to take care of my cats until I...

Yeah, I am aware of this. I have had one of the cats for 12 years, and I'm not the kind of person to abandon any animal for selfish reasons. I'm visiting with my boyfriend in hopes of our relationship moving forward. At the 6 month mark we hope to be engaged or married and have my application...

So, first off, here is a simple version of my situation and plans. I plan to visit my boyfriend in Canada in about 2 weeks. I am bringing my 2 cats with me (I'm getting their rabies vaccinations done next week). I plan on staying for about 2 months, returning to the US for about a month, then...

I'm not very sure either! I just feel like it will be another hassle in the process. Maybe I will just sell it and pitch in for a new one when I get there. Plus it's another thing to carry along!!

Thanks Screech339, I'll have to talk to him about that!

Thank you for your input! As far as #4 goes, don't they make you pay them a percentage of expensive gifts? It wouldn't be like a "gift", though, since I bought the TV about a year ago for myself.

I originally posted this in the Visitors forum, but was told to post it here. I have posted on here once (maybe twice) a while ago, but my situation has changed and my boyfriend and I have a better idea of what we want in the near future. We hope to have me visit him in Canada (from America) for...

Ah okay, thanks :). I highly doubt I will bring my car though. There are a couple of reasons off of the top of my head. 1. He lives in Quebec. I BARELY speak ANY French, so going anywhere alone for a while would be a little scary for me :D. 2. I'm from Maryland. 1 inch of snow here is enough to...

I wonder if the fact that you're married helped the situation at all.. Hmm.. I hope we have an IO as understanding as yours! Thanks for the info :)

Noo he would be driving down with his car, and driving us back with his car :P. Good, I'm glad it would be beneficial! I definitely understand with the car searching thing. Hopefully it doesn't happen, but if it does, it's necessary for the greater cause :).

I mean I wouldn't mind them searching everything, as I wouldn't be bringing anything against the rules, but it would be a bit of a hassle. Yes, he would drive down to Maryland, probably stay with me for a couple of days and help me get my things together, then we would pack up his car and cross...
