    Bill C-12's Nearing Royal Assent and Refugee Claim Eligibility

    Doesn't seem to be scheduled yet. The two committees submitted their recommendations to the senate, but no scheduled final reading yet. The senate security committee has recommended the bill as is, without the previous committees recommendations. Looks like it'll pass....eventually as submitted.

    Do I have the right to PRTD, and how do I deal with the fields where I don't have an answer?

    In response to your initial question "Do I have a right to a PRTD", the blunt answer is no, you don't. As you are not in compliance with residency obligation and have not been in Canada within the last 13 months, IRCC is not obligated to provide you a PRTD. I'd also suggest that, if you do...

    Can I be outside of Canada when EI is starting

    You should still be eligible once you return. Once you start reporting, it will ask if you were out of the country. They'll deduct those weeks you report you were unavailable for work. Make sure once you are eligible, you complete the reports (whether you are in Canada or not) in a timely...

    Visitor Visa - Proof of Funds Query. Will this get rejected ??

    You specifically stated: "Do you think there is a red flag or risk involved as she is not showing bank statement of Bank A (instead showing bank balance certificate) and ONLY showing bank statement of Bank B which shows the salary credited ???" So is she showing both account balances or not...

    Visitor Visa - Proof of Funds Query. Will this get rejected ??

    So she's going to apply showing a bank balance in account B, that's the equivalent of $746 CDN? That's pretty much a non starter. How long does she plan to visit Canada for? Why does she need an experience letter if she's only coming for a visit? Recent transfers into account A will probably...

    Risk of Being Reported for Residency Obligation Shortfall When Moving Permanently in 2027

    Keep in mind that by your August visit, you will already be short of RO and at risk of being flagged as being short in CBSA's system (or at worst, reported as being non compliant). If that's the case arriving and leaving again won't improve your chances later on when you do decide to settle...

    Super visa applicant is HIV positive. What happens?

    It's certainly not an automatic rejection. There may be a refusal if they feel there may be a high cost to the system for treatment (it's complicated) or test results show the applicant isn't stable. Be prepared for longer processing times and potential additional medical requirements. Some...

    Some Interesting Statistics - IRB

    War is not the only reason people can claim asylum. It's slightly more in-depth than that.

    Clinical Trial Visa?

    But they probably need status regardless.

    Some Interesting Statistics - IRB

    It would be interesting to know how many of the failed application have applied for other programs, H&C specifically and how that has inflated those numbers.

    Son sponsorship

    "I am aseeking advice on any legal solutions" Then hire a lawyer. On the non-legal, forum based solution, I wouldnt leave until he receives his PR. There's the risk he will be refuted entry or banned for violating terms of his TRV. Why wouldn't you have kept his status up to date? Seems a bit...

    Letter of explanation why your spouse is non-accompanying

    IRCC has started scrutinizing applications where the spouse in non acccompanying in order to gain points, only for them to be sponsored immediately after. You'll have to explain the intent behind your decisions, particularly since, as noted by @Naturgrl, he's already living and working in...

    chances of h&c application

    Honestly, it's impossible to say these days, with changing quotas and legislation. All you can do is apply and hope for the best.

    Super visa - would medical tests impact the temporary visitor visa

    If you've done the medical through an IRCC appointed physician and told them it's for IRCC, they (iRCC) already have the results and have probably requested the additional testing. Applying for a TRV probably wouldn't change the medical requirements at this point.

    The sponsor did not declare his common-law partner in his PR application

    What can he do about this? Lawyer up. Despite what the laws in the Philippines states, IRCC sees him as being common law. Because he didn't declare her at the time of his application, he can never sponsor her in his current situation. She is not considered "family".

    Moving canadian daughter(minor) to canada, with Parents(Us)

    That's one company in a region where listings have dropped 43% since 2021. I'd imagine there's going to be an enormous rush of applicants who are in Canada already applying for what amounts to 12 or so confirmed positions and 3-4 that are "future considerations".

    Lost PR card and beiing asked humanitarian and compassionate considerations for residency requirement

    Well, you basically broke the cardinal rule for those who know, or even think, they aren't in compliance.....you interacted with IRCC (and seemingly CBSA on a regular basis) before you met RO. You took a calculated risk on the RO and it backfired. Applying for a new/replacement PR card within...

    Lost PR card and beiing asked humanitarian and compassionate considerations for residency requirement

    Lawyer up. Looks like IRCC has decided you won't be able to meet your residency obligation by July 2026 (looks like you are about a month short) and are giving you the chance to submit a compelling reason (illness, family issues, something) that prevented you from meeting that obligation. If you...
