I guess we just need to go that route. We have been trying to do everything by the book and being honest but unfortunately there have been to many hiccups with the common law thing. We will still probably get an immigration lawyer just so we dont hit anymore snags. Thank you for your time and...

Just got misinformation I guess. Her landlords wanted proof that I would be here for a year before doing a new lease, I couldn't provide that without the trv approval document. I guess they could back date the lease but doubt they would do that. The bank had a similar response stating they...

I just got approved for TRV that only gives me 3 months of status here. Would the months before actually count? I know for the PR they want a lot of proof together like leases signed together, bank things together etc. You can't do that while just a visitor so how would that work? Maybe I have...

It states that you have to be living with a person for 12 continuous months to be considered common law. I figured the extension is the only way to achieve this but we have been unable to make it 12 continuous months with all the paper work hiccups etc. Are you able to apply for common law...

I'm from the U.S. Visiting my girlfriend. We have been together 4 years. We have been trying to create common law (a complete full 1 year) so that I can apply for PR ,but there always seems to be some hiccup. It almost worked out last year but the paperwork was delayed/lost (not my fault, they...

I guess the only option is to apply for another extension? I am not looking forward to traveling with Covid going on.

Hello all I am hoping to get some help with this. I applied for a 1 year extension in Jan 2020. I was approved recently but only until September 2020. Is this an error or does this happen? Do they explain why they reduced the time if it was not a mistake? I know it is very hard to get a hold of...

Hey all not sure where to post this but my docx files are getting an error when uploading. It's states it is an allowed file to be uploaded and I uploaded docx last year. Not sure what is going on. Did they change something and not annotate it on the site? Thank you all! -T

I'm having the same issue. I am US resident. I extended my stay for a year to create common law with my Canadian girlfriend but was told not to do anything like open bank account, get lease together etc because I am still a VISITOR. So we are supposed to tell CB that none of that was done but DO...

Quick update for anyone interested. I finally got through to an agent. She verified that I had been approved a while back but for some reason it did not update on the web or systems. This technical issue also delayed the physical visitor record to be mailed out. She sent an inquiry to Edmonton...

I'll try to call IRCC again monday. Would be great to talk to an actual person on the line, seems to never get to that point. On Hold forever or the line would just hang up.

I did a lot of reading on the forums and a lot of people said the wait for things was taking a while so I just figured it can take a while. I have prior military service as well and someone mentioned that could be part of the delay as well. I just let it ride since I am allowed to stay while...

Thank you for the response canuck78. I have called before but never got through. I'll try again monday. Is there a better number to call? I read I had implied status while awaiting response months ago but this seems wonky.

I am US resident, applied for visitor extension in Canada Aug 2018. I asked for 1 year, Aug 2018 to Aug 2019. Application status shows everything completed except reviewing eligibility requirements. Is it normal for a visitor extension to be delayed this long? Also, should I just leave in Aug...
