Hello,
I have few questions for which I would like to know your opinion,
My mom and I are Syrian citizens currently living in the United States on TPS (Temporary Protected Status for Syrians). We both received Canadian immigrant VISA ending on Feb 28 of this year (Family class application filed in 2008 with me as a dependent child (now age 27), and my brother who lived in Canada as the sponsor). Attached with each VISA, a document with the title "Confirmation of Permanent Residence". By the end of each document, it is written:
- Have you any dependents other than those listed below?
UCI number my mom's name DOB (in my document),
UCI number my name DOB Child - Accompanying (in my mom's document.)
For reasons related to my job (I am a fresh grad from med school and seeking training in internal medicine in the States. I applied to the National Residency Matching Program and already concluded my interviews. Match results should be available on March 21, and residency should start in July) I prefer to stay in the US until I finish my clinical residency. So my questions would be:
1- To your knowledge and experience, would moving to Canada as landing immigrants cause us to lose our TPS in the States and render us inadmissible to the States?
2- Is there any possibility to be issued an extension on our immigrant visas?
3- Can one of us land in Canada without the other, or is it a must to land together?
4- if landed, how long does take to receive the PR card by mail?
5- What will happen if we don't land on time and our visas expire?
It is a wonderful opportunity to move to Canada, but a critical time to my career as a physician.
I really appreciate your help, thank you
