So I'm going to be landing in mid april in BC while my fiance and I are on vacation down there. There is a very good possibility that I will have a job to come back to in Alberta by then, so I'm wondering if I can get my SIN from a Service Canada while in BC? That way I don't have to wait to...

Just wondering if there is a minimum amount of time a COPR is good for when you receive it. For instance you have at least a month to land after receiving your visa. My fiance and I are going on vacation in April and although I've received my PPR, we paid the RPRF at the last minute thanks to...

So yesterday I got PPR and a request to pay my RPRF from CPP-O. My fiance (sponsor) paid the fees online last night, so I'm sending it off today. My question is can I just email them everything or do I need to send it to them in the mail? This is what the letter said: In order to continue...

So I applied back at the very beginning of August for my PR and haven't heard anything from CIC since my fiance was approved as my sponsor. Hopefully we'll hear something soon though. Anyway I was wondering if it might be a good idea to just send off my RPRF payment before they ask for it, or...

I'm staying in Canada right now under a visitor record that is good until this December. I found an online course that can be completed in 6 months and was wondering if I needed a study permit to take it.

So my boyfriend and I just got back from seeing my family in the US. We took a few pictures of him with him and some of my family and friends, and I wanted to send this new evidence in. I figured I might as well since we have to send the RPRF in anyway. My question is, since our file has been...

I just got back to Canada with my boyfriend and was scared to death I'd be turned around at the airport. I've been living with him for almost the past two years legally. But with a past work permit and after only spending two weeks in the US, I started to freak out when we got to customs. The...

I was looking for the processing time for the US, and CIC's website hasn't updated it to say Ottawa yet. So is that time they have for Buffalo still accurate?

And apparently neither does the employer, or she's too lazy to look it up. And we don't have his option C printout or all of his pay stubs from the previous year. We're missing about three months worth of pay stubs, but we do have a copy of his recent tax return. Do you think this will be enough?

How much time does it on average add to your processing time, if you don't pay all of your fees up front? I'm just wondering, because money is tight and we may have to pay the right to permanent residence fee later on.

So we're almost finally ready to send off our application. Yay! :D We just need to get my boyfriend/common law partner's option C print out and fill out a few more forms. Anyway, this is what our evidence looks like so far, and I want people's opinions on if this will be good enough. So, thus...

So my paperwork for my app is almost done. :D But I want to get an extension on my visa as a visitor. Should I apply for it before or after I apply for my PR?

My boyfriend/common law partner and I broke up once for 2.5 weeks due to the stress of being in a long distance relationship. We later got back together and about a month after we broke up, he flew to see me and met my family, then two months later I moved to be with him in Canada while on my...

My boyfriend and I have a very interesting relationship. We met originally on a website for people who were into BDSM and it's a major part of our lives. Because of this I often refer to him by a nickname I've given him that is BDSM oriented. It's not a vulgar name, but I don't want this info to...

My work permit expires in about a week and I'm applying to get it extended as a visitor visa today. Yeah I know, I'm applying late but lots of stuff came up which made this happen. Anyway, my boyfriend and I are planning to visit my family in October for my birthday and we were wondering if...

My boyfriend and I are common law and plan to get married in the future. But since we aren't engaged yet, and I heard that saying you are can hurt your application. I'm trying to come up with an answer to the question on having a formal commitment ceremony. So far I was going to say "We would...

I know it used to be Buffalo, but when I went to look it up on CIC's website it said it's the C-PPO or Case Processing Pilot in Ottawa. So do I put them down as the office to process my application in the form, or do I put Buffalo?

Ok so I've been doing a little more research and I noticed alot of people who apply from the USA are asked to submit statewide background checks along with the nationwide ones. Well I luckily only lived in one state my entire life, so I only have one state to do the statewide check for and...

My boyfriend and I are applying as common law in March of next year. Now in order for us to have qualified for common law I had to find a way to move to Canada with a long term visa so we could live together for a year. In doing so I got a job transfer from the US to Canada. Now my question is...

My boyfriend and I are planning to apply as common law partners next year. We want to apply in March since that's when I moved to be with him and we started living together. The problem now is that his parents are refusing to write us a letter that says we lived together for the first two...
