Did the national police check work with CIC? Also, why did you need a hand signature on the Schedule A? I thought that if you submit it through your online account, no signature (hand-written) is needed.

Hey guys, I got my AOR #1, and need to submit my Schedule A + Police Check. I have them both in PDFs. Unfortunately I submitted the Schedule A on it's own, and now have no option to upload the Police Check. Then I researched this, and realized you're supposed to combine both docs into one PDF...

Hi guys I have a quick question. When exactly can you link your application to an online account? Is it after you've received an e-mail from CIC that they have received your application and includes an application number included OR can I link it right after I've filed it? Because I sent it...

It's a sticky situation, but I guess this is what I would...a few options. Please know that I am in no way a lawyer or have experience in this, however, I have worked with women in domestic violence situations so I know a few things for immigration, but minimal. And the best thing to do is to...

I'm sorry to hear that as well. Not sure how it is with this new law in place, and if he has already been in Canada for a few years I'm not sure if this applies....however....i know that if you prove domestic violence then you are likely to get him sent back. This is an unfortunate case and I...

Just sent in my application yesterday! It seems that the timelines are around 10-11 months for you guys out there. :( I hope you guys get your partners here soon. Excited to be a part of this community during this dreadful process. Thanks for all the help so far :)

Hey Minosis, thanks! I'm wondering though...how did he get it in 15 days? Doesn't it need to be legalized? Or you just obtain it, and translate it. I thought it needs to be (1) obtained (2) legalized for foreign affairs (3) then translated (4) then submitted. and this process i believe takes...

Hi friends! So I've been reading up on everyone's issues here with medical + police records. Since this is part of their "new" application process (to not hand in these docs with your application, but afterwards), it seems that it's not ideal at all...urg. I will send our sponsorship...

Thanks so much!

You can actually change it even before your sponsorship gets approved. You just go to ServiceOntario (depending on your province) with the translation of the marriage certificate and it can be changed. While I was reading the application again, where it asks me for my name it says "same name as...

Hello Everyone! I am preparing my sponsorship application, the application has changed since December 2016 (There is a new process) - and specifically, the document checklist was recently updated on June 2017 (which I have a question on). I have two questions: (1) My driver's license and...

Hi all, I recently got married to a Cuban in July. I am unable to send our sponsorship application until December 2017. I was hoping to invite him (as my spouse) to visit Canada for a month BEFORE I even send my sponsorship application (i.e. before I'm accepted as a sponsor, and such). Is this...

yes we ended up splitting and so I cancelled the common-law relationship status. No he did not collect gov benefits, or anything else from that list. Yes I am on speaking terms with my ex, and he is aware with my current situation - all is ok. I am able to handle the paperwork, I am very...

Hey guys If I have sponsored someone in the past (not cuban), and a few years later i'm now with Cuban and we are getting married next year....will my previous sponsorship have an effect on my future sponsorship? Would you guys recommend maybe that I do it through a lawyer rather than on my own...

Thanks! Would I Just called the Call centre and change it there? Like the general phone number?

Hi guys, I need to change my status from 'common law' to 'single' since I am no longer living with my common-law partner. I am aware that I need to contact CRA to make this change, however, do I need to in some way inform immigration that me and my ex-common law partner (who I sponsored through...

Thanks Rob_TO, however, why is it that CIC mentioned in brackets the 5-year rule....which it seems to concern me (not the ex common law).

Hello Can some give me advice on this? I have sponsored my common-law partner to Canada, my undertaking finishes December 2017 (the 3 year undertaking). Our relationship has broken down, however I realize that I'm still responsible for him until December 2017. However, I want to sponsor someone...

Thanks this is really helpful!

Hello I was in a common-law relationship and unfortunately it has broken apart. My common-law partner has been granted 'conditional PR' meaning we need to be common-law for two years before his condition PR becomes permanent PR...however it's been only a year and half. Where do I report our...
