    Landlord forcing me to buy tenant insurance

    Hello, 1. In Ontario, according to the Landlord and Tenant Board (in 2020), Tenant's insurance is NOT MANDATORY. However, if it is stipulated in the Rental Tenancy Agreement, and the Renter signs it, then the renter is legally obliged to obtain said insurance. 2. Look on the LTB's FAQs...

    Sbasiba (?) Paul, thanks for your regards and wishes. Though I am born and raised Canadian, and it's my WIFE who's immigrating, it may as well be me TOO because I haven't lived in Canada since 1989! The settlement might be easier for her than me because she'll have the Arrival Services to help...

    Hello, my timing is available in my signature, but it took just under 1 month, most of which was VFS mailing back and forth. Wish we could send direct, but I suspect if post was lost, too much blame and responsibility directed at Embassies, so they've contracted it out to avoid the arguments.

    SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

    Salaamualaikum Zaria, congratulations on your successful application! If your husband has booked his flight with the airline already, has he checked if they will let him check in/board with a ONE-WAY ticket? A Canadian Border Services Agency policy states a return ticket is not necessary to...

    Hello Saamar, if you read my original post, you'll see why, though perhaps you already did and your question is less question and more statement? I apologise to you if you need an apology - I believe your tone is light-hearted from LOL contained. I do agree with you that the forum should try to...

    Hello Tam_ngo and frmBD, we applied from Thailand and received Pre-Arrival Service approval perhaps six months ago, before requests for Police Clearance and Medicals. We used AEIP-SUCCESS which was very responsive, free and was totally online. One or other of the services seemed heavily...

    Good morning NGE, thanks for the explanation. I agree with your wife and your caution concerning the x-ray. Depending on the due date for delivery of 'Little NGE' you may need to redo the medical procedure or not. And, of course, you'll have to add some more forms and update the IRCC with the...

    Hello NGE, this is my first time going through the process of Sponsorship Outland, so I'm not an authority. I'm more of a support network of people like you in the process. I'd imagine, owing to your wife's pregnancy, that the omission of an x-ray is to be expected and may not be required...

    Hi NGE, I believe you would have attended a Panel Doctor, one approved by the IRCC. If so, then they would do everything required and submit the results to IRCC directly. As long as they did that within the timeframe mentioned, there should be no reason for concern. The GCKey is not accurate...

    Flying Into Canada with PR Visa/COPR

    None taken Bs65, I had hoped my reference to your experience on the forum implied respect. Everything you mention is correct. Its for these reasons too that I sought public discussion.

    Flying Into Canada with PR Visa/COPR

    Thanks DollyM. I agree they're not there to offer travel advice, they were contacted to ask about the admission at the border when arriving on a 1-way ticket. Thanks for your account.

    Hi Bs65, I notice you're already in the 1000's of posts, so I'm certain you've got a great deal of knowledge, and I don't wish to argue, but I would like to put my answer in the context: What I copied and pasted was from a CBSA Agent (not just a member of the public like we generally are)...

    Dear 07292015, I encountered a similar case with my GCKey, asking for me to upload photo and passport scans, AFTER I already sent the originals by VFS Thailand to Singapore. I would ALWAYS provide what IRCC asks for in the GC Key, and I have outlined this in a previous post in this thread...

    Dear forum members, I've posted a thread on 1-way tickets in Family Class Forum. Please always do your checking with the airline whether they will allow you to check in when you provide COPR and PR Visa stamps in your valid passport or international travel document.

    Flying Into Canada with PR Visa/COPR
