Hi guys, hoping someone here can help me. We are landing in Alberta on 21 June 2019 this year, as newcomers. We don't have an official address with utility bills and our names yet, as we are new and will be in an Airbnb for the first two weeks or maybe even longer. Can I just give my friend's...

Hi all, I received my COPR about a week ago and we are really excited to be moving in June after my fiance finishes he exams and my work contract expires. We initially planned on staying in Mississauga, Ontario as there were lots of job opportunities in the Toronto area. Life happened and we...

Hi all, So we are finally in the last stages of our application. I understand that I will not need to show proof of funds since I was sponsored, but we do have roughly 30 000 CAD saved up which is still in my South African bank account. What I'd like to know is, if we transfer the money to my...

Hi all, This has probably been asked before but I thought that an updated topic could help. We will be landing in Canada this year (my fiance and her sister is going in June already). They do not have family there, though we do have a friend where we will be staying. But we recently thought of...

Hi all, I'd like to find out whether anyone can answer me on the following: My fiance (Canadian) and I live and grew up in South Africa. I know that if the sponsor is a citizen, he/she may move to Canada during an outland application. We are roughly 6 months into our application, and were...

Hi all, Something that I just thought of is causing me to stress (hopefully I am not wrong). When we applied for sponsorship via family class, one of the forms requested me to state whether I have been refused a visa in the past. I said no, since I have never actually applied and paid for a...

Hi all. So our common-law application has been sent almost 6 months ago in September. Last week, our visa office asked the sponsor to provide proof that she will settle in Canada. We kind of panicked, because we have already given them 150 pages of proof with the original application. My fiance...

Hi guys, trying my best to form some sort of network here. We will be moving to Canada this year around June/July (latest). Although I have sent countless job applications and cover letters on indeed and job bank, I have not received a single response. I hold a bachelor's degree from my country...

Hi all. Not sure whether this has been asked before or not, so please excuse my ignorance. For the GC Key (linking application) is it necessary to link the application for the principal applicant as well as the sponsor, or can I just link for the principal applicant? Not sure whether we need...

Hi all, so we finally sent in our application (outland from South Africa) this morning. I thought I might share how we compiled our application, since so many rules have changed over the years and we could not find any new organizing/compiling examples... I am going to try to add photos...

Hi guys, so the time has finally arrived. I am sending my application via courier tomorrow morning (cpc Sydney 49 Dorchester street NS). I’m so nervous! My whole application is extremely thick so it could not fit in an envelope, the courier service Im using is gonna use a box (DHL). My...

Hi all...So I have a question that baffles me a bit... Although the IMM 5409 is not required if our application does not have a co-signer, is it still fine if we provide this declaration under sponsor's supporting documents (civil status documents)? I don't want to get into issues if I...

Hi all, So we are finally in the process of organizing our application to courier it. Now I know this question that I am about to ask has been asked and answered many times, but I can only find old information and CIC has changed the way we need to organize our applications. According to my...

Hi all, After doing tons of research on the forum, I think we finally have enough topics to prove the sponsor's intent to move to Canada once PR is granted. I would like to know, since there are now restrictions on the number of documents/pages we can submit for proof of relationship - is there...

Hi all, We are currently gathering relationship support letters from our friends and family members (parents from both sides as well as our sisters, cousins etc.) We are applying outland (both of us outside Canada) and therefore we also need to prove intentions to reside in Canada once PR is...

Hi guys, We are finally in the stages of compiling our application for my permanent residency after saving enough to keep ourselves afloat for the first few months upon arriving. Quick background - we both live outside of Canada (fiancee is Canadian by descent) and she is sponsoring me for PR...

Hi guys, I am sorry if this has been asked before, but me and my fiance plan on moving to Canada (we have been saving and planning for a few years now). We are considering inland since proving intent to return to Canada can be daunting (so I've read). My question - if I apply for a TRV, I want...

Hi guys, I hope everyone is well! Just a quick question, are there any of you who had to provide proof of intention and might give some insight on how we can be successful? We have read a lot of mixed responses, so we are not entirely sure whether we would even be considered. Our case is as...

Hi guys, So in the past few months we have decided to move to Canada. At the end of last year, my girlfriend (we have been together for 4.5 years, living together for 4 years next month) received her Canadian citizenship by descent. Needless to say, we decided that leaving our current country...

Hi there :) I know this is a long message, but it would really help me if someone with past experience in sponsorship can give some advice or shed some light. My name is Ruan and I have been in a relationship with my girlfriend (partner) for almost 4 years now (18 April 2016 will be our 4-year...
