    Lawyers Suck

    That is really unfortunate. Lawyers are service providers, and you are paying dearly for that service. You are entitled to receive the service you paid for. Have you told him what you have told us here? You paid him to complete the forms correctly, he didn't do so so your application is delayed...

    No, my suegra picked up a constancia on behalf of my partner. He mailed all of the fingerprints and a carta poder to her. She then mailed the constancia to Canada and we sent it with our application. Then they asked us for an informe and we went through the same process that you did, mailing...

    Thread for outland Buffalo applicants!

    We received a passport request on Friday February 18 and drove to Buffalo on Tuesday February 22 to pick up the visa and land. I was avoiding updating here because I didn't want to upset poor Dralon. So I am so very pleased to see that you've received PPR at long last! :D Congrats to you and...

    Buffalo Applicant (Help)

    You need to have been lawfully admitted to either Canada or the United States for a period of at least one year in order to apply outland through Buffalo.

    Thread for outland Buffalo applicants!

    I realize that and wrote what I did because it adequately answered his question. The actual form was linked to and I assume that the poster is capable of going to it and reading the instructions in their entirety. The implication of the poster's question is that he submitted nothing at all under...

    Options? Is marriage our only hope

    Thanks, but we located that a couple of posts up. Do you know which "case law" CIC is referring to on its web site?

    Thanks bonbon9! I am pretty excited but holding off on celebrating just now. Our e-CAS has changed to "Decision made" but we don't actually know at this point what the decision is. The letter they sent to us when they asked for the informe de datos registrales said "We believe we will be in a...

    Thread for outland Buffalo applicants!

    All applicants need to submit an Option C printout, regardless of which visa office is assessing their application or whether they have applied inland or outland. The Option C is reviewed by CIC Mississauga before the file is sent to CIC Buffalo. CIC Mississauga evaluates the sponsor's ability...

    Options? Is marriage our only hope

    Yes, there are two standards and I think it's terribly confusing for a lot of people. One year to sponsor, one year to file taxes as a couple. Three years to apply for spousal support (in Ontario assuming no children). Every federal body uses the one year requirement. I am vaguely recalling a...

    Options? Is marriage our only hope

    Where is the requirement of one year of continuous co-habitation set out? Is it in the case law also, or in a specific statute? I'm just wondering as I just did a quick scan of the IRPA and didn't see anything. Does that mean it's in the regs to IRPA or in another federal statute or somewhere...

    Thread for outland Buffalo applicants!

    I was/am in the same position as you. My partner's meds were done last February. I ordered CAIPS notes a few months ago and they said the medicals expired in March, exactly 13 months after we had them done. I have no idea why they gave us the extra month. I was also wondering whether I should do...
