    Meeting minimum residency while working for International Organization

    True, I should have been specific (re: income earned from the institutions is not taxed in Canada). Also, I do completely agree with you that both issues are unrelated. My point though is, decades ago, I guess it was the same for taxes until an amendment happened.

    Meeting minimum residency while working for International Organization

    Quite interesting that Canadians and PRs working in prescribed international organizations don’t get taxed on income earned from the institutions. I know both are different and completely unrelated, but when it becomes frequent (re: PRs that work with the World Bank and UN continue to apply for...

    Meeting minimum residency while working for International Organization

    Completely agree. My only worry is, there have been more cases of the court not dismissing the reviews, and I believe when this occurs, a change to the citizenship act should be proposed at some point, especially if these people continue to win at the FC. See another one...

    OWP extension after Inland Spousal Sponsorship has been submitted

    She did not, the current OWP will expire in July, so we though 8 months is a long time. I guess it was a silly mistake. Anything we can do?

    OWP extension after Inland Spousal Sponsorship has been submitted

    We have recently (in Dec 2020) submitted a spousal PR application without extending my spouse’s OWP. Her OWP expires in July 2021 and we were thinking that it makes sense to apply to extend it in February or March 2021. Questions are: does this make sense? Can we submit an OWP extension after...

    I applied on 8th June. Called them a couple of times, and they confirmed SIN issued and sent on 10th. However, nothing received yet. I am trying to figure out what the issue is. Called again last week and asked them to resend, I still haven't received it.
