    Preparing documents before landing (imported goods, goods to follow)

    Thank you CDNPR2014 and Omegabyte for your insights. This helps me a lot! @Omegabyte looking closer at the BSF186A form, it gives me one line per article number. I can definitely use it for the list of goods at landing, but it is impossible to make it look organized and readable for my goods to...

    Preparing documents before landing (imported goods, goods to follow)

    Hi all, my day of landing (by plane - March 15th) is coming closer fast and I'm trying to prepare everything I need in order to make my landing as smooth as possible. Now I've seen "B4" a lot of times now, but I can only find BSF186 and BSF186A. In BSF186 it also mentions form BSF715 after...

    VIENNA OFFICE

    Doesn't hurt to order notes. It's just 5 dollars anyways. I mean, some people order notes constantly, so when they receive their notes they order the next ones. I think that's unnecessary (and probably annoys the visa officers lol), but hey whatever they need to do to make themselves feel...

    Is it legal to have my spouse take my belongings with her before I land?

    So basically as if they were her own things. Thank you taffy.

    Is it legal to have my spouse take my belongings with her before I land?

    I think it's different when you enter Canada together and just basically have all your belongings in your luggage together (if I understood it right). Thank you for your response though :)

    Is it legal to have my spouse take my belongings with her before I land?

    Thank you zardoz. What would have to be declared though? The stuff I would give her is all used and not worth much, probably mostly clothes.

    Is it legal to have my spouse take my belongings with her before I land?

    Hi all, our Spousal Sponsorship has been approved and I'll be landing in March of next year. However, my wife is coming to visit me in December/January and we were thinking that she could take one piece of luggage with my belongings with her, but we're concerned that this might not be legal. Is...

    VIENNA OFFICE

    So I promised I'd let you know when we received our GCMS notes. We got them 2 days ago. We ordered them so close to the date they approved my application that the notes show everything as passed/approved. I'd say it took them about the 30 days they said it would. The last note says: Application...

    APRIL 2016 - OUTLAND SPOUSAL APPLICANTS

    Hi Reichel, most people here will tell you to apply outland and I agree with that. It doesn't mean you have to be outside of Canada, it just means that you can't work in Canada while it's processing and that you have ties to your home country (I'm not sure if the second part also applies for US...

    VIENNA OFFICE

    Thank you, it went really quick all of a sudden! So yes, they're awake! Hope for you ;) It means that I must cohabit in a conjugal relationship with my sponsor for 2 years after landing. So basically I can't go back to my home country without my spouse for more than I guess a usual vacation...

    VIENNA OFFICE

    Received my CoPR in the mail on Wednesday, Nov 9 (see detailed timeline in my signature). I'm a little pissed cause they gave me Condition 51, even though our relationship started (with proof) in 2006, but we were married less than 2 years when they received the application, so that's probably...

    Basic Questions I can't Find Answers too about Sponsoring my Wife

    Hi saddlepatch, for spousal sponsorships there is no such thing as minimum income requirements. The only thing you can't be is on social assistance. You might have read income requirements for other family sponsorships such as parental.

    Finally ready to submit Application, which office clarification!?

    I hope you're prepared for the wait ;) Good luck to you guys.

    Finally ready to submit Application, which office clarification!?

    For outland Spousal/common-law/conjugal sponsorships it's Mississauga. They will then probably send your application to Ottawa once the sponsor has been approved.

    GCMS NOTES WELL EXPLAINED HAS NEVER BEFORE UNTIL NOW

    Hi, I'm sure this has been asked thousands of times already, but through the search function I was only able to find answers to more complicated applications or to the old form. So here it goes: We recently applied for GCMS notes, but got an e-mail telling us we need to fill out IMM 5744. We...
