Newbie

Hey guys I'm new to the forum but I have been reading some of the post and have found them to be very helpful.

I have been a Canadian Citizen for a number of years now but was leaving in Jamaica. I came back to Canada in Oct 2013 and I want to sponsor my common-law spouse to come here. We were living together for the pass two years and I am now seven months pregnant.

I am in the process of filling out the applications (sooooo stressful and time consuming!!!) but I would like to know if I should wait until I have our child before I send in the application so that I can submit the baby's birth paper just to show that we have a child together or should I just submit them now (cuzzz I really dnt want to wait too long...cuz that means that it would take him longer to get here). This would be our first child. He applied for his TRV but was denied, we were hoping he would have been here for the birth. We could try again but I honestly feel it maybe a waste of time and we should just go ahead with his PR application.

I know he will need to do medical and police check but does his parents or any of his siblings (aged 12 and 14) have to do it as well, being that he will be the only one coming here rite now...I just a little confused here.

We dnt have much pictures together bcuz we lost most of them when my fone crashed...but we have a few..is 15-20 pictures sufficient, we have call history and sms history, joint bank account, lease agreements, western union remittance slips, Skype history, a few emails........well the car was in my name only so I guess that wont be necessary to include....letters from family and friends confirming our relationships. Are these sufficient??

And does anyone know a good immigration officer that can look over my application and guide me that wont charge me and arm and a leg within the North York area.

Plz help!!!!!!

Wow so happy for you Neveaha, that's AWESOME!!!! We all know how hard it is, but your great positiveness for yourself and others plus your extraordinairy will power finally paid off!!!!!

Your hubby will soon be in your arms, Maybe for Christmas or New year? It gives me hope to have hubby with me sooner if possible but next holiday season for the latest because we filed our application in March 2013.

Like Flower said, we hope you'll visit your Jam FAM still, otherwise we'll miss you!

Keep up posted please.

Have a good week-end everyone and load your batteries Kingston, lots of holiday wishes to grant before Christmas! One over the moon person per day at least before new year would be perfect!!!

Welcome to the forum, ally89 -- we're glad you found us!!!!

To answer your questions:

- I would submit your application as soon as you can; you don't have to wait for the baby to be born
- very few people (only one that I know of) going through this process that applied for a TRV got one
- his parents and siblings do not need to do a medical; only him and any of his children (accompanying or non-accompanying)
- gather all of the proof you have to prove to the visa officer that your relationship is genuine. I don't recall anyone on the Kingston thread applying common law but anything you have with both of your names on it should be submitted
- many of us have completed our applications on our own without lawyers so if you have additional questions, please ask

Good luck and congratulations on your pregnancy!

Jahdes, hang in there girl. Nobody's perfect and people that feel the urge to judge or critizise can keep their message for theirselves. We are here to support each other, I believe that this process is hard enough so that we truly don't have to add on top of it.

You were honest and played fair. Pretty confident you will win your appeal. They can't keep two lawfully married people that love each other appart forever! Keep the faith and stay true. Blessings
