Will do, Thanks. Although she overstayed but she was never given a court order or the equivalent to leave US, she left voluntarily. I told her something similar to your comment however she was just keeping her options open for any possibilities as she really wants to be there for her friend.

Hey guys, need your opinion - My friend was studying in US on F1 (student visa) till she graduated but she did not leave before the end of grace period instead she left a whole year later - meaning she overstayed her visa (F1). Is it still possible for her to apply for a US B2 (visitor visa) and...

Will that not create some doubts with CIC that this person did not disclose proper information a) in the citizenship application and b) anytime after the actual change (from A to B) happened whilst they were Canadian PR. Also, the CIC knows that they applied for Canadian PR when they were still...

At the time of Canadian citizenship application, this person no longer has any obligations to country A, its just that they came to Canada as Canadian PR holder when they were citizen of country A (so they applied for their Canadian PR under A) but gave up the citizenship of country A and...

Scenario: If a person, citizen of country A but living as a PR in country B, applied and got their Canadian PR under country A and entered Canada under the same ... then later down the road got citizenship of country B, whilst being PR of Canada and gave up country A's citizenship due to rules...

I think I can understand those people coming from mostly Asian countries since their social status mobility upwards is similar to what we are experiencing in "Africa" - which is - our parents/grandparents worked hard either by themselves (self-employed) or for some not fair employers. And they...

http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/montreal/canadian-denied-entry-us-immigrant-visa-1.4011202 What do you say to that? That will surely ring alarm bells for those hoping to use Canada to catapult themselves to USandA for whatever the reasons.

But the shock to me comes from the fact that it is Canada and not some developing nation. As we know Canada is still a rich country and has lower income inequality compared to other nations. How many of those who participated in this thread own a home? (no mortgages, borrowing, etc - plain...

In Ontario, for a person working 6 days a week @ 8hrs/day on minimum wage would earn: 48hrs/week x CA$11.00/hour = CA$528.00/week x 52weeks/year = CA$27,456.00 (gross) Keeping everything simple, after tax income = CA$24,250.00/annual, if that persons annual expenses are 50% then savings will...

so how do people afford homes in places like that? Also, how many people there have that kind of money, I mean don't many people there live on endless circle of borrowing/credit cards and paying back in the end having a poor to average liquidity? Coz, we get news of how tough things are in...

I am looking for something around CA$ 600,000/- max However, thanks all for suggestions, let me try again with some of the real estate agents.

I don't live in Canada, I am not one of those PR applicants or PR holders and there are no known Canadian realtors in our part of the world (why even would they be), that's why i was seriously asking: How does one find a realtor willing to sell to 'Non-Canadians'.

How does one do that?

Thank you. Let me just say since I don't live in Canada, the problem comes when Canadian real estate agents see a foreign number and hear an 'unfamiliar' accent, they just play hardball with you, and you get nothing out of it except international calling charges. 1) which cities/parts of...

What's the reason? Coz that's where I was leaning towards considering it has more scenic surroundings compared to either Toronto or Montreal and would be good for family life. That's a bit of a personal question but lets just say money is a secondary factor. For me, I would prefer a...

1. In a suburb within a radius of 30km from a major city like Toronto, Montreal, Vancouver, etc, far away from working class neighbourhoods. 2. 2-3br ensuite with ample garden area. 3. as per no. 1 4. I do not want a home that has been lived in, even if for less than a year. Only want brand...

Congrats to all who got their PPR's. It must have been a long way.

Thanks. What is your opinion on: buying a ready made/built house that one likes - VS - buying a plot of land and building your home.

Hey All, Interested in buying a NEW house somewhere in Canada, which cities/towns have good appreciation of house prices.
