Hello,

My wife received her PR visa today. It took 6 months to get all the process completed.

We will drive to the border tomorrow and she will land at that time.

ReginaC you are next.................... ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Excellent! All the best to you in Canada.
 
I have a question for everyone: My hubby is living in the U.S. and is undocumented in the U.S. We filed outland via Mexico City visa office. If by chance they don't call for an interview, will he be able to leave the U.S. and fly directly to Canada (from the U.S.) when they send him his passport (with visa attached)? We were under the impression that he would need to go to Mexico first before coming to Canada.

Which documents they requested?
landing fee?
police clearance?
 
Graciotas, Romero!

One more question, the site says that be illegal in the U.S. will not affect the application, which is great news. It doesn't mention anything about if my husband will be able to fly directly from the U.S. to Canada or will he have to fly to Mexico and then Canada (if he is not requested to attend an interview in D.F.).

I had smile on my face as I read the bit about Ford's transit skullduggery. Good stuff.

Hola, Americana.
Reading the webpage, the lawyers seem to be saying that being illegal is OK with Canada and the applicant can file " in the country in which the applicant is currently residing if (i) the applicant has at any point in the past lawfully resided in that country for a period of one (1) year or more ..." This I remember from when I was considering my own situation back in 2010. Basically, if you didn't at some point have status for at least a year, then you can't file and you must file in your home country. Does this make sense, people? I'd love to be wrong about this, but for that and other reasons, I actually went home and did everything from there.

Exactly. This is why my husband voluntarily left the U.S., returned to Mexico and then we applied.
 
Hey Everyone, just wondering if you can confirm this for me.
Is this the place I am supposed to be looking for translators of Spanish documents:
http://www.canadainternational.gc.ca/mexico-mexique/emerge-urgence/servprofgdl.aspx?lang=eng&view=d#translators

I live in Puerto Vallarta and Guadaljara seems to be the closest place, does anyone know if we can do this somewhere in PV?

Also the medical exam doctors that are approved:
http://www.cic.gc.ca/dmp-md/medicalinfo.aspx?CountryID=2041&CountryName=Mexico&fb_source=message

Are these really the only locations, I must travel to these locations in order to complete them?

Thanks so much for your help!

I can't help you with the first question; but the answer to the second is YES, you must choose one of the DMP's on the list.

Does it say that you must choose from one of those translators? When I had me mum's letter translated, I didn't follow any recommendations; it was simply supposed to be an accredited translator (someone who is allowed to translate for the government, for example). It wasn't a problem for CIC that I know.

On physicians, yes, from the list only, as Romero said.
