    Issue with CBSA Travel Record – Impact on Citizenship Eligibility

    We applied for my spouse (still in process) with a comparable issue - there was one exit missing (from airport). So it was clear there was an error in the records (two entries in a row). We proceeded (on our own) more or less as Miss Bee suggested, but less detail: included copy of the CBSA...

    Entering Canada without COPR.

    As far as I'm aware he would have to leave and come back. OR - hypothetically - tell IRCC he wants to do the landing 'in Canada', i.e. virtually. But I didn't suggest that because I think it would take longer. I do not know about your customs issue at all. Again, it seems to me you could put...

    Document checklist - Information about previous examination - Should I tick yes or no?

    Then the answer is clearly no - was not declared as spouse and was not examined as non-accompanying.

    Document checklist - Information about previous examination - Should I tick yes or no?

    Were you married/common law when you became a PR? If so, was the spouse included as non-accompanying? If so - then the answer is yes.

    Entering Canada without COPR.

    Do you have some way that the document - when delivered - will be received and held by someone for you? Because if yes - he can enter as a visitor until it is received in USA. Then when the doc is received, he'll leave Canada and re-enter with the COPR/landing docs to complete the formalities...

    January 2025 - Citizenship Applications

    Expect - no. Hope - sure; sometimes there are (presumably from Friday work), balanced out by fact there usually aren't many on Monday. (Applicants who don't check on weekends may see on Monday of course). This is all 'usually'.

    Eligibility

    I think prohibitions as used - but I'm not certain - refers to the list of others things - like threat to security of Canada / membership in a criminal group (19(2) in the act); 22(1) - persons in prison, on parole, under a probation order (also people charged or under trial or with sentences...

    PR Holder - Soft Landing Done, Child birth outside Canada post soft landing– Next Steps for Moving to Canada

    No, that is not right. You need to count from the day you became a PR. If during the first five years (eg if you soft landed in [Feb] 2022, through to [Feb] 2027) you have been OUT of Canada MORE than 1095 days, you are out of compliance. After [Feb] 2027, it is a rolling obligation (at any...

    Work and school form for citizenship

    Use your best judgment, you've been too vague for anyone to tell you much. Go from the basics: they will see your tax info if they wish, but they're mainly checking your 'main activity' for how it shows you were physically in Canada. Short-term/day jobs or part time while doing another job or...

    IMM 5562 Required for US Citizens Living in US?

    Your interpretation is correct, if it doesn't specify as required for your country, then it's not. Wasn't required. No big deal of course.

    In that case I don't see much you can do but I would respond to the second email (by webform or however they told you to) saying you responded to the message the day before with all the information available.

    A fair number get it done more quickly than the site estimate - and if you're looking at activity on this site, it's probably most active in recent months, i.e. precisely those that are getting done in six months or less. It's not clear what precisely IRCC estimates consist of - often usually...

    Please help regarding PR spouse sponsorship application?

    My phrasing was overly complicated. I see no reason that it will not be approved. Only caveat is I don't know the rest of your file, so assuming everything else is okay. As others noted, since you have several student visa refusals, it may get some extra scrutiny, but that's normal. Strongest...

    Please help regarding PR spouse sponsorship application?

    On the face of it not a lot here to suggest it couldn't be approved. Assuming other supporting documents good. Just follow the instructions and pay special attention to the checklist. Provide what they ask for - you seem to have the basics (timeline, basic evidence) or can get (a letter or other...

    Guidance on BSF186 form

    In theory, no. It's one thing if other family members are travelling with you. You haven't specified - is this for immediate family members? Is this brand new clothing or not (i.e. their clothing they did not bring before for some reason)? Technically you can bring gifts for $60 worth per...
