Thanks for the response. The reason I want more months is for more flexibility to meet the residency requirements. I do have a follow up question. One of my parents has cancer and is receiving treatment. I may have to unexpectedly leave (due to medical complications for the parent) after I...

My PR card is expiring sometime in December 2024. I have read that you can renew your PR up to 9 months in advance. I have completed the residency obligations to have it renewed. My question is if I submit it for renewal in March, Will the new card be valid from March 2024 to March 2029 or...

For IELTS paper based, Speaking is easier but writing is harder compared to computerized TOEFL where speaking is harder and writing is easier. I got a perfect score for TOEFL writing but only managed 8 in IELTS.

No.

I will be visiting the US to see my spouse from time to time. I guess I would need to apply for a B1/B2 visa to avoid getting into trouble for violating the H4 status.

How does this work? I used to work in the US on H1B, converted to H4 and then moved to Toronto on PR. My spouse is still in the US on H1B. My old boss has a small start up and is willing to let me work remote from Canada on contract basis (Not W2). How would payroll work? I have a valid H4 visa...

The cse webform is the online version (not working) I was talking about. I did get it sorted though. Had to call in the morning and after a 15 min wait I got through.

Hi Everyone, I finished my landing during the weekend. It was pretty smooth apart from the address part. I gave my current Toronto address to the immigration officer. He said that he updated it but to make sure by either visiting online or calling the pr card call center. With the online...

Well, the plan is for me to just take my clothes and settle. I plan to declare everything else the furniture, household items etc as goods to follow and will be brought with my wife at a later date when she settles. We don't have any vehicles. So accounting should not be too hard. Thanks for...

I am the primary applicant and I will be settling in Canada. My wife will continue to work in the US after doing her soft landing. Both of us are planning to land next week together. My question is, can just one set of forms be submitted for goods to follow and goods accompanying as a family or...

If you have some writing samples. Put them here. I can give you a few pointers.

Thanks for the response. That is correct. She is still currently working in the US. We both don't want to be looking for work at the same time. So she will continue working in the US until I get settled in Canada. She will move at a later point in time. Can each person give a separate goods to...

My wife and I will be doing a soft landing in the coming months. She will head back to the USA to continue working. I will be staying back and settling down. How do we go about doing the goods to follow and current goods form? Since I am settling, do I need to do anything different wrt to these...

Improve your ability to take notes and understand the overall message they are trying to convey. Try and get used the accents and dialects if that is a problem. You need to figure out why you made those mistakes to improve, Is it because you missed a key point due to lack of notes/ misheard...

Thanks for the tip. But your last statement seems to contradict the article. " Time limit on Goods To Follow There is no time limit on importing, free of duties and taxes, items that are on your Goods To Follow list. As long as the items are listed on your Goods To Follow list, you can...

I will be technically settling as I won't be going back to the States. I forgot to mention that I am the primary applicant. I will only be bringing clothes though. Depending on where I can find work, I will move in future. So I am not bringing furniture etc. My spouse will only move permanently...

Yes you can do that.

Your conversion is incorrect. Your writing score needs to be 7 to get a score of CLB 9. Its needs to be 8(Listening)-7-7-7.

Scores can change depending on your luck. Obviously there is no guarantee. If money is not a problem, you should try it if you feel confident.

My spouse is going to continue working on H1B in the US. I plan to move to Canada and settle down and try and get citizenship. We both plan to do the soft landing in the following months. I will continue to stay in Canada after that and she will return to the states. I am aware that a Goods to...
