My husband will coming to Canada from the US next month. What will he need to do and have at the border? Besides the papers I (his sponsor) received in the mail with his photo on it, what other documents might he need? I know he needs to declare the items he is bringing over, how does he do...

Hello! My American husband got his CoPR this month :) we were approved in just under 6 months which we did not expect and are very, very grateful for :D However, he cannot come for a little while, maybe a few months,because some insanely high and unexpected bills had come up over the last...

Hello guys. I am hoping someone could help. My husband should be getting his PR sometime this year (hopefully sooner than later!). He would come here with zero credit. We want to eventually buy a home and would be looking to rent first and he also wants to buy a vehicle early on. You need credit...

Hi guys. I notice everyone here always checks the status of their application progress and such online. They are doing this directly thru the CIC site I assume. I went on and signed in to see my progress using the Receipt number that we got from our online payment. However, nothing came up. I...

What is the processing time roughly for US Outland applicants at the moment? This year has seemed to be better, with some getting thru in as soon as 4-7 months. But now I am hearing it could take much, much longer? My husband and me sent our papers off this month. What could we be looking at for...

I am sponsoring my husband to come to Canada. How should the sponsorship package look? Do I use dividers for certain sections? What order is it supposed to be in? Do I put stuff in files, a binder, etc? Just not sure what to do. Sending it off next week. Thanks!

Hi everyone. We were told that it is $550 to file off the immigration family class package (me sponsoring my husband). Is it exactly $550? Should it be a check? And if so, who should the check be made out to? Thanks.

Hello everyone! My husband and me are still in the process of getting everything together and prepared for our immigration package for him to come here. He recently got back his police check. On it, there are several traffic misdemeanors (such as driving without insurance, and a few minor...

Hi guys. Starting the process of sponsoring my American husband to come to Canada. For the evidence part in regards to conversation proof, in what form would they like this? 95% of our chats have all been thru Facebook Messenger. As most of you probably know, the entire conversation cannot be...

Hello everyone. I am really stressed out right now. I just got married to my US spouse over a week ago, under the assumption from the forums and also other immigration consultants, that it can take about 6-12 months for my American husband to come here to Canada (Nova Scotia) with an Outland...

Are there any rules or taxes to be paid on a car coming from the US to Canada? My fiance will be moving here in the (hopefully near) future once we are married and he gets his status, and he wants to drive here with his things and bring his vehicle (an SUV). My questions are - what are the rules...

I am getting married next month and will need a Marriage Certificate as part of my documents to sponsor my spouse. On the website you can apply for either a Short Form certificate or a Long Form certificate. Which one does CIC need/prefer? I also heard of people on this forum having issues with...

At what point in the sponsorship application/process would my husband need to get his medical appointment done? Does it matter if it is not done at the time of the application being sent out? And where is the medical done, in his country? (Missouri, USA)

I thought I would make a separate post about this. At this point is there an official approx time estimate of how long it would take to get Outland PR thru family class sponsorship thru the Ottawa Visa office? My fiance, who I will be marrying in June, is American, and from what I understand...

My fiance and me will be getting married in June. Can't wait. We will then also start the process for me to sponsor him, and hopefully get documents ready early on to get a head start. He will be applying outland, since it is faster and because he has his work in the States. I have been told by...

I'm Canadian and my fiance is American. Once we are married, roughly how long will it take once we do up all the papers and submit them, for everything to go thru and him being able to come here? When I look at some people's info on here, where it says "filed" and "landed" I see it is taking 10...

Me and my fiance will be marrying in a few months. Our plan was to have a courthouse marriage, as right now, we cannot afford an actual traditional wedding (immigration is expensive!). We were then going to have an actual ceremony with family, with wedding planning and the works, maybe 6ish...

My boyfriend wants to move here to Nova Scotia, from Missouri USA, and work here. We are not married and I am not working right now (I am unable) so I cannot sponsor him. He wants to apply for the Federal Skilled Trades Program to get residency. He is a Cabinetmaker/woodworker, so he is one of...

I am Canadian and live in NS, Canada. Would my boyfriend, from Missouri, USA, be eligible for the Federal Skilled Trades Program if he does not have any college certificate or diploma? He is excellent at what he does. He is a woodworker, and wants to come to Canada to live and work. He has been...

My boyfriend lives in Missouri, USA. He wants to come here to work and live and be together. He does not have an educational background. Because of this I noticed when looking up into about applying for permanent residency and other things, that he would not be eligible, just because of this (I...
