You are counting the day you received your PR status, July 6, 2017. It's asking you to submit dates up to July 5, 2017, because as of July 6 you held PR. Double check your entries, each day can only appear once in the calculation. You were a visitor until the day before you got your TRP...

Re: Status of a Child The child has no status in Canada. The parents are PR, and this status cannot be passed to a child, it is applied for. Obviously since they are not citizens, they cannot pass Canadian citizenship to the child; that they are working for a Canadian company is irrelevant...

When you become a Canadian PR, your US income will have to be reported in Canada, as well, because Canadian taxes are dependent on residency, not citizenship. Your "world income", meaning income you earned/received during the year no matter where in the world it is sourced, is subject to being...

You will likely have to apply for an extension, and pay some fees to get it. Ask the local authorities in Chile when you are there, usually this is handled by a Foreign Affairs department of some kind. Again, these questions are better asked elsewhere, not too many people here are concerned...

This isn't the place for that question, here we deal with questions relating to people wanting to come to Canada or return to Canada. Check out the requirements for living and working as a foreign national in Chile by visiting an information website hosted by the country's foreign affairs...

I have been getting one of those letters from Health Care Connect for the last year and some odd months as well. I found out at work from a lady that moved to my town less than a year ago that she was connected with a doctor within her first 6 months. I have a feeling they work on a...

There are 3 addresses for Claims Processing offices at the bottom of the form, maybe mail it to one that is closest to you? Otherwise, try calling Service Ontario and see if they can direct you.

While it is true that there is no minimum income requirement for sponsoring a spouse, income remains a factor (in an oblique way) under Section 39. If it is reasonable to assume a spouse cannot become self-sufficient in Canada and the Canadian spouse is reliant on low or fixed income, a spousal...

My husband and I were in this situation, and the advice from H&R Block was not to claim the spousal amount.

If you are required to provide proof of funds, you cannot use a Travel Cash Card. There is NO way for the officer to verify the balance on such a card, so they are not acceptable proof that you have sufficient funds to support yourself as required.

1. Now that you have stronger ties to Canada, you should always carry with you proof that you retain ties to the US, and proof that you fully intend to comply with the requirements for remaining in Canada permanently (a copy of the receipt for the payment of your application fees, a copy of his...

Yes, definitely you should mention that you were removed as a minor and that is why you haven't met your RO. You need a TD in order to return to Canada because you don't have a PR card, but because you haven't met your RO, you are not entitled to get a TD.

If your spouse has received social assistance in the recent past or is currently receiving ODSP for example, (which makes him eligible to sponsor regardless), or is unemployed and receiving EI, and your employment history is sparse (I'm just pointing out some things that might concern them, not...

Condition 51 just means it's more likely you'll be reported/investigated for marriage fraud if your marriage "fails" within two years of your arrival in Canada, the absence of that Condition doesn't mean you're exempt from being investigated. If you're honest with yourself, you KNOW this...

HS Diploma - Non-one has yet asked to see mine, but he'll need it later on to prove he is capable in English so he can apply for citizenship. Trade certificates - If he is not in certain fields, these don't matter, as few trades in Jamaica provide these. I have my accounting certifications, but...

You didn't have a choice in being removed from Canada, that is something you have to make clear. Of course, you were a minor, so it's unlikely anyone asked your opinion, but it's always good to make that clear. (I wanted to go to a different HS from the one I was sent to at age 11, but my...

My tuppence: if you get the TD, focus on getting settled in Canada. You say you have long-term plans, believe me when I say two years goes by very quickly and that will be the minimum you need just to get yourself sorted. Yes, you could probably get a new PR card soon after being granted a TD...

No, you can't apply to renew your PR card on that basis. It works only for a TD. To complete the PR card renewal form, it is to your advantage to have two years of Canadian residency on that form so they see that when it was up to you, you immediately took steps to comply with the residency...

1 - You don't need to apply for PR again if you had it before and had no say in the matter when you were removed from the country. What you need to do is show that your status as a PR was placed in jeopardy through no fault of your own, and that you are now taking the first opportunity...

You need to wait until you can show that you have met your Residency Obligation (RO) before applying to renew your PR card. If you are granted a Travel Document, the Visa Office that issues it is agreeing that you have not lost your permanent resident status. So, if you get the TD, come to...
