Thanks hs202. Can anyone else offer advice on this plan? Is is better to try to get in under PNP if you are inside or outside of Canada? Does it ultimately make a difference? I am really at wits end as to making this happen. :(

I have been trying for the last year to find a way to join my sweetheart, in the Yukon, and become a PR. We have been looking at the PNP for the Yukon, because I don't fall under any other category to legally be there. My brother knows how much we want to be together and is going to provide...

Thanks for your response RobsLuv :) The marriage idea IS the best one, but can't happen as he is not divorced (he has been separated for 2 yrs). "Part of how they do this is they avoid documenting US citizens when they enter Canada to "visit". Once you're admitted, you're allowed to stay for...

I could use some advice or information from any that can help with this. My sweetheart and I want to live together in Canada, but for now the only way we can do this is for me to just come there from the US (as a visitor), stay with him and then apply for an extension to remain in Canada with...

Leon, thank you for taking the time to post this. :)

Canadianwoman, I just wanted to join in with saying how sorry I am to hear this. :(

I just want to add something about Skype...... My sweety and I use it, and here in the US we have Skype Mobile which can be used on a Blackberry with Verizon Wireless as the carrier. I believe there is an app for the iPhone also, but not certain of this. Skype on my cell helps, we can talk a...

mariabo, so sorry to hear that you were denied. Best of luck to you with your next go round.

Just did, Journeyman! Guessing since I am still fairly new, it has limits, because I only had 2 messages in there! ::)

Thank you, Leon, yes it seems as though I was a bit hasty in getting my hopes up. Hi Allison, got your message :)

Well Leon, the get married part we have aced, as he is only legally separated at this point in time, so no can do. As to common law, we can't live together that long, without one of us working, to be considered common law, so it has to be conjugal partner. At this point, this option is our...

Thanks for responding, BeShoo. I guess I need to learn the fine art of patience :)

Thank you so much for answering, Leon. Yes, I know the work permit is different, I may have worded that question incorrectly. No, my occupation doesn't come under the NAFTA agreement. I have also checked out the skilled worker program, and even though I have 20+ years (bookkeeper) in my...

Sorry to hijack another users thread, but I am researching every possible angle to find a solution to legally reside with my sweetheart in Canada. Information I have gotten from this thread puts us closer to that solution. I have read so much that I think my head will explode. Just when I...

I realize that is an option, but don't have the funds for it.

Yes, good point. Thank you : )

Hi all, I am a US citizen and want to move to Canada, but in researching the options, it looks like the only way I would qualify for PR status would be a nomination in the PNP (Yukon Province). My question is, would a prospective employer seriously want to hire someone that can't come for an...
