    Permanent Resident in Canada with Minor Child

    Absolutely not fixed overnight, you’re right. But I’m thinking next year or two for resolution. Again, if possible, a study visa seems more promising for entry than a visitor. But if she isn’t eligible as a child of a PR then we are stuck with visitor only it seems?

    Permanent Resident in Canada with Minor Child

    I don’t need long term solutions. I’m sure I will be able to obtain PR status for her through a lawyer eventually. I need advice on the safest options for legal status now for a 9 year old and potentially the next couple years (estimating on how long it took previous custody arrangements to be...

    Permanent Resident in Canada with Minor Child

    she’s left and re-entered probably 6-7 times since 2017 and never given a stamp or visitor record Clearly sole legal and physical custody would answer this, but that’s not happening in the near future...if ever. That’s almost unheard of in family courts aside from substance use and the like. I...

    Permanent Resident in Canada with Minor Child

    unfortunately speaking to him today is what sparked this post. He once again refused to sign. Yes we were flagged at the border but the officer said no big deal and let us through. It still makes me worry if it’s up to officer discretion. We travel to the states once or twice a year since we...

    Permanent Resident in Canada with Minor Child

    Joint custody, full physical custody. If she would qualify for a student visa until I get a family lawyer back home to press for PR application, would that not be the best bet to ensure she has some type of documentation?

    Yes she was included. She was to live with my ex for a semester, but that fell through and she entered with me under my student visa.

    Permanent Resident in Canada with Minor Child

    I’m confused - For a student visa for a minor it states the child does not need a visa if the parent is entitled to work/study in Canada. How does being a PR affect that statement?

    Permanent Resident in Canada with Minor Child

    We have joint custody. She moved here with me no qualms but as soon as PR was processed I began to ask for the no-contest form from him and he has refused. I will attempt to apply for a student visa I guess. We pay for health insurance for her, but it’s not full coverage as OHIP would be.

    Permanent Resident in Canada with Minor Child

    Can I apply for a student visa for her? And just renew each year? We live in Ontario. I have searched everywhere for options besides permanent residency for her. Her biological father is just non-cooperative and I’m stuck.

    Permanent Resident in Canada with Minor Child

    I am a Permanent Resident living in Canada sponsored by my spouse in 2017. I have a 9 year old (US Citizen) who has lived here with me the entire time. I was initially granted a student visa and at the time told my daughter did not need any other documentation on her end. She has a right to...

    Medical Exam Requirement - Help ASAP!

    I requested a copy but was told it would take 10-20 business days to receive it. Instead I was given a receipt (stating "not completed") but they said results would not be submitted to e-medical for 5-10 business days. So once confirmed it was submitted to e-medical I could make the trip to the...
