Hi, i just wanna share my time line and some comment about inland sponsorship. When we sent our app in Dec 2012 we were told inland was faster (6 months all in!) which used to be true but it is not anymore. So if you can apply out land. The fast processing for family unity is only for out land...

I can not believe this happened to you! If you already had a landing date don´t you count as PR? according to CIC web page the obligatory 2 years of living with your husband are not a MUST if abuse happens to you. CIC web page says: Being abused or neglected by your sponsor or their family...

I was talking about requesting Student or Work permit to the US, NOT the restoration of status :) I think that is what I paid too.. I just don´t remember very well. Also, be carefull with the info you get from CIC. They even sent me a letter with wrong info about this issues (keep status and...

Hi waitingkiwi, I extended my visitor visa after it expired, I had to pay almost 300 dollars (i believe). I think it is worth because you get health care and you could change your status to student or work permit (as long as you are eligible for them by yourself) just sending your application to...

So... I was advised to have as many permits as possible (it will just look better if you intend to travel abroad). You might not legally need it, but reentry depends on the officers in the border and if you have all permits BUT PR is just less likely for you to have a problem. Also, we were...

Hi canadaeh1234 it is very funny they did not ask for any documents. Usually you will need to bring the official document and a copy. I do not think that should be a problem, but you could also go to the admissions department and talk to them. Bring your documents and they will do what is...

I feel exactly the same way, we did not expect this process to be such a hustle!!! we even thought about pulling the PR application so I could get study permit and just have a NORMAL life (this is why my hubby went to the MP office). It is really bad that because of this delays and all the...

Sorry I was out of town... SO when you apply in US you send your passport in the mail with the application. If you down load the application package you will see that it is only possible for people who live in US or Canada. Of course there is a very little percentage of mail that gets lost...

Hi goldmoon... I am new in the forum but I also have problems with the study permit. So... I was told by CIC several times that I was supposed to wait AIP before I could get a study permit BUT they are wrong. I went to MP office (I live in AB) and they made some calls and finally told me that...

So... I applied in land and I am REALLY regretful about it. Try to make for sure that your country office is taking that time. Then it is true!!! it is not taking 6 months first stage inland. CIC still working in Oct2012 app (no AIP no DM). Also, from your country I do not believe you will...

Yes we have implied status but seriously... what does it really does for us? I can not get my hubby´s benefits nor health care (in AB) so.... I really do not see any benefit. And yeap I received very short extension too. But I am sending another app for extension because the registry told as...

Oh sorry, I am In Edmonton. But check the web page because they have this kind of clinics everywhere, just call them. I went to one in Red Deer too. About the applications, right now is a big mess. My MP office told us that CIC is way behind schedule. And in my case for example that I want to...

I was told that all I needed was my marriage certificate and that my passport state that I am legally here. I read someone said they got an extension after the 6 months seal when entering to Canada. You should ask, also not all the registries know how to deal with this. The first time we were...

Hi Mhalik, I contacted CIC last week and eventhough I received a letter that said that they were working in my application since February they have not even looked at it. They even said it was like an automatic message. Also, for people looking to study... I send my student application with...
