AOR Received.

Hi Everyone,

I submitted my husband's application and I just received a refund of $85 (Biometric fee), I assume this is good news because in the past, my husband submitted Biometrics and perhaps he's been exempted?

Any insight would be appreciated!

Hi all,
I have a question regarding the primary applicant photo submission. Do we submit scan copy of front, back of the photo separately or combine them in a pdf and upload?
Thanks

Hi I am canadian PR and my wife is from Pakistan and I applied for outland online in September 2022 for which I have received AOR and SA but no medical and file has been sent to London VO that is notoriously slow. Meanwhile, My wife got her TRV approved and she will travel with me in April 2023. Given the terrible wait times, do you think I cancel the outland and apply inland in April 2023. This way hopefully I will have PR by the end of 2023 or sooner. While the outland applications for london can take 2 years and I might be getting PR in september 2024. Not sure what to do?
Will it raise any suspicions on my case if I go through. Also I am a bit scared if my wife becomes pregnant on visitor visa, I will have no coverage for delivery.

thanks
You need a legal expert's advice on this. Cancelling and reapplying certainly will need an acceptable explanation.

Is there any income requirement for spousal sponsorship? I have been living in India for the last 1 year and going to travel to Canada with my spouse (Visitor visa) next month. I don't have a job but have some savings to show as proof of financial support. Can I apply for sponsorship right away when we travel to Canada?

Hi every one i hope i can get a quick answer to my questions.

im a PR status and now im outside Canada for more than 2 years. I went to have vacation in the Philippines last 2020 and got pregnant at the same year. I couldn’t go back to Canada because of the situation of Covid that time,and my pregnancy status was risky to travel plus when i was pregnant i was confined covid patient that time at the time of my due month.
Now i am planning to go back to Canada and my PR card is still valid until December 2023. I was hoping to travel back with my family and couldn’t leave my baby is there any possible way that i can travel back with them? What visa they can get to apply,for me to be able to be with them together? Can they apply for tourist visa? And if the immigration approved the visa can i apply for my husband and my child PR for them while they are in tourist visa?
I hope someone can help and answer my questions. And i will really appreciate for all your response. Thank you in advance

They need temporary resident visa (aka visitor visa) in order to come to Canada temporary. In the long run, you need to go to Canada alone (unless they have TRV) and sponsor them for immigration.

I just realised you wasted 6 months since your thread in August. You should make your decision faster. You can only sponsor them if you still meet your PR residency obligation.

Are you in compliance with the residency obligation or not? (If hyou're not sure - check the residency obligation forum and requirements).

Based on this thread, as of today they still are and will be for at least the next ~ 9 months or so. Every month waiting to return, reduces that number by one...obviously.

And they must be in Canada to sponsor, since they are not a Canadian citizen.

About ready to send in a PR app for SIL and I know he needs a police check from here but does he still need one from India? He's been residing here in Canada since summer 2018.
