Yes, you can get a driver's licence as a visitor. You can also be an added user to your spouse's credit cards, which would prompt the bank to send you mail at the address. We added his name to everything we could, including rental agreement. You can do that as a visitor, also.

They did accept the application as complete. They have not asked for additional evidence (yet). Our application is 8 months in. However, how strong they think the evidence is up for debate on a case by case basis. I think you should be fine. :)

Thank you! :) You should be up soon. No, I sent the police certificate when they asked for it (at the same time as AOR) and we haven't done the medical yet. Waiting to be asked.

Received work permit today :D Well, we received the notification that they approved it and mailed it. Date application received: November 1st, 2017 OWP: January 31, 2018

Received AOR today! Yay! Applied November 1, 2017 AOR December 22, 2017 I was able to link my application online right away. I used my application number and my UCI. I left the place of birth fields empty and only put in the passport information. Number of applicants: 2 (me and my husband...

Thank you!

I know we must have legal status to apply for the open work permit. However, I am a bit confused about our timeline. The application for the OWP was received November 1st Visitor status expired December 8 We don't have an AOR yet By the time they open the envelope, the legal status will have...

You only need 2 of those. We did not (and I suspect many people) don't have the first one. For financial support, we showed bank statements showing transfers between our accounts, as well as a bank account on which my husband is an authorized user. For proof that the relationship is recognized...

I am not entirely sure what you are referring to, but we submitted our photos by regular mail. Are you sure they want them submitted online? Maybe you have to submit all of this by mail. If you want to submit something online you could create a word document and in it copy-paste various other...

When you apply to extend your visitor status OR apply to change the conditions of your stay (from visitor to worker in this case), you have implied status until they make a decision on it (about 4 months). With implied status, you are here legally. When you apply for spousal sponsorship for...

It is referring to a criminal record search, police check or going through any other immigration information they have. Could also be employment history, tax returns etc. And yes, it is a good thing. It is the next step of the application.

From my understanding of the situation, you want to get married and then live together in Canada? Your easiest path would then be for you to get married wherever you want. Then she comes here to visit you and you apply for in-land sponsorship. That way you get to spend the maximum time together...

That must feel terrible, and I'm sorry for what you have to go through. Indeed, being separated from the one you love for a formality seems very unfair. I am not a lawyer, nor do I have any ties to the border officers, but it sounds like they may never let her through due to broken trust (she...
