You do not qualify for an open work permit because you are being sponsored using the outland (outside of Canada) process.

Right....thankss for ur reply ;)
 
Good morning to whoever could help me out
We submitted our application in dec 2011, approved as sponsor in feb 12, received a request for additional paperwork in dec 2012, due to a concern of not declaring my boyfriend at that time. In feb 2013 we sent proof he was only my boyfriend and nothing else. In may 9 our application change from "application received in dec 2011" to "in process"

Is that a good thing?Could that mean that our paperwork submission was succesful?

Thank you to anyone that can help

Tati

Probably. I think generally changes to ECAS without communication from the VO are a good thing.
 
Hi Guys,

I'm filling the Appl. to sponsor , Sponsorship Agreement & Undertaking IMM1344 now, question.

At the top it says : If you are found inelegible to sponsor:

1. withdraw sponsorship application -all proceedings will be refunded
-OR-
2.Proceed w/ the appl. for PR , fees will be retained.


Who chooses #2 if they cannot sponsor?
::) ::)

Mine will be for Quebec, I dont have a job yet (I'm going back this monday 20th May- I am a Canadian by birth) I will be staying with my dad, he can support me till I find a job no problem, and I can even get a letter from him. Theres no other reason I would be found ineligible...So I choose?? ::)
 
That option exists in cases like Parent Sponsorship, where your spouse can be the co-signer. ;)
 
Hi Amikety - thanks!

so what do I pick? I have to check something so I can validate.. ::) :P

We did. While they will refuse the application in the end (because of the lack of a sponsor) it gives you appeal rights that you don't get if you discontinue the application, because that's a voluntary withdrawal of the application.
 
Thx for everyones replies...her come more questions :'( :'( :'( ...



I've been at this for days since I am leaving Greece in less than a week and I would like to have ALL papers my partner has to sign with me and ready..

I ACTUALLY filled all the Canada Sponsorship and Immigration forms... yey! :P :P I just need to gather documents and place them accordingly.

I am trying to get a head start for the Quebec part, I am up to the Selection Certificate, I see no mention of the word "Common-Law", in section 4. :'(

All throughout the Canada forms, common-law - which is my case was used. Now I dont see that choice and am a but confused. Do I chose De-FACTO then?

SECTION 4. B.

"if you are the sponsors De-Facto spouse? if yes...it says "I reside WITH" I am leaving for Canada next week so I cannot check that... ::) ::) ::)

then the other choice is: I have been in a conjugal relationship with from... due to persecution or penal control we cannot reside together.

* to makes things clear so someone can answer me, for Canada we are common-law, we have been residing together since 2007, but we separate on 20/05 and I start sponsorship from Canada while he awaits in albania. What does that make us? which should I choose - I REALLY dont understand the questions or know what to answer in SECTION B :-X

AS I am reading another form as well for Quebec "Formulaire D'engagement" again there is the same above questions and I cannot figure which applies...... :'(

ANY help would be appreciated...just when i thought I knew what I was doing Quebec came along..... :'(

You are de-facto. The separation is temporary in nature and doesn't indicate the termination of the relationship.

What does it say in the country specific rules? http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/pdf/kits/guides/3907e.pdf

Item 17: they want the IMM 1017 form from the medicals. Generally, though they will not reject the application for this - but the visa office WILL ask for it, and you will experience a delay.

And note that medicals are good for 12 months PLUS they can be renewed for an additional 12 months now.

I think the medical extensions are limited to certain countries. Manila sends everyone for a complete remed and will often just let the medicals expire if they are close to the expiry date. I had to complain about the unnecessary additional cost just to get a reduced medical for my wife. I was told they could extend medicals for a year but really they will only extend them if that is the only thing keeping the officer from making a decision and it has to be prior to 15 months.
 
Hello Everyone,
About the Medical Examination. My husband lives in the States, the Doctor assigned/authorized in his area, says he needs an order/letter/intructions to perform the examination, and that he will not perform any examination without a formal order or letter.
What should we do? just send the rest of the documents? will that affect the processing time of my application?
Please help us!
