Hi MonaLisa and PMM,

Thanks for sharing. I am in the same situation. But I wonder should we put 4 parents' name in each of our interest to sponsor form, or should we just put 2 patents in each form?


Thank you in advance!

I understand that this is a relatively basic question, but I've been trying to get a clear answer for a while and can't seem to find it. My Great Grandfather was Quebecois from Yamaska, QC. Does that lend ANY weight to my application process for citizenship to Canada? Sorry if I sound naive, but I'm trying to be hopeful!
Thank you!

Be well,


Jim

I am a Canadian citizen who sponsored my wife from the Philippines 6 years ago. She has her pr-card and we have lived together in Canada for 6 years. My wife included her now 30 year old son on the original papers. Now we want to sponsor her son to come to Canada. My question is Which one of us should be the sponsor and which one the co-sponsor. I am the major income provider as the current COVID situation has left my wife unemployed. This is not a major problem as my income is sufficient for all our needs. So is it best for me or my wife to identify as the sponsor on the papers?

Good day,
Hello, My name is Zeke, and I’m from the Philippines. I would like to inquire my status of being an Immigrant in Canada. I have my PR card renewed last October 2016. I left Canada March of 2017 because of family matters. I decided to go back in Canada this March 2020. However, because of the Pandemic and implemented restrictions, I wasn’t able to go back. I’m planning to go next year in Canada. Can I still enter Canada without having complications? Thank you

Hi, my sister was permanent resident when sponsored her husband and son. Son spend 6 month in Canada and left the country for taking religious education in pakistan. Meanwhile my sister got her citizenship of Canada.last 4 1/2 years her son didn’t back in Canada. He is 13 years old now.his PR card card expire in 25 July 2020. Can he reapply PR card from Pakistan whole he couldn’t complete his 730 days in Canada. Or my sister can sponsor him again.

Is it advisable for a Permanent Resident to, almost immediately upon getting the PR Card, to leave Canada to study outside Canada? Are there any implications on the PR status?

I am an orphan who was adopted by my aunt in Cambodia when my parents passed away. She pretty much raised me as her own child for 7 years before my uncle who lives in Canada sponsored me in 2005. I was wondering if it is possible to sponsor my aunt and her husband as my parents or adoptive parents. if so, is it the same process as sponsoring parents? Thank you.

Hello all,

I'm sponsoring my wife and my child (9-month year old). The application status now is showing Decision made after almost 12 months and the issue is that my child doesn't have a passport due to the closeness of the concerned consulate in her residing country because of Covid 19 panedimic. We have been told that the consulate will not be offering its services in the near future and we are afraid, in case of passport request for visa, could delay the issuance of the visa.
Can we ask for a temporary travel document for my child to be able to come to Canada.
Your kind prompt response and experience are highly appreciated.


Regards

Dear Sir, Madam

Good morning,

Kindly note that i have received the rejection letter form the Canadian embassy regrading the travel documents as my PR was expired and i did not respect the 730 days rule. due to a reasons that i feel it is H&C. however The immigration office in AD says

"Having considered all of the evidence that you have presented, I am not satisfied that your personal circumstances involve humanitarian and compassionate considerations that justify the retention of permanent resident status." also he mentioned

Should you choose not to submit an appeal of this decision to the Immigration Appeal Division in Canada, this decision concerning your non-compliance with the residency obligation under section 28 of the Act will become a final determination of your residency status. You will be considered to have lost your status as a permanent resident of Canada, in accordance with paragraph 46(1)(b).[ You will not be allowed to enter Canada as a permanent resident, in accordance with subsection 19(2). You would have to meet all regular entry requirements for a foreign national, including obtaining a temporary resident visa or electronic travel authorization, if required."

i have not appeal as the appeal will take more three years and it is will very difficult to challenge their decision .

because i have lost my PR as per their clause , i am trying again to do my IELTS and submit again through express entry.

my question is am i eligible to do that , or it is not anymore permitted for me to apply.


thank you

Hello,
My sponsorship PR is in the process and I want to plan. I want to know how to bring money into Canada after PR is approved. I am currently a UK citizen and have worked and paid taxes in the UK. I have savings which I would like to bring to Canada. Is there a time limit to bring these savings to Canada? Do I have to pay taxes on them when bringing to Canada? Do I have to bring the first time I arrive or can I bring over 5-6 years down the line?
Please advise so I can plan.


Thanks alot

Hello Everyone!


I am a permanent resident of Canada and will soon have to be applying for my citizenship.


I am yet to complete a year; out of the 1090 days for the citizenship requirements. However I am getting married to a Canadian citizen and accompanying to stay with him in another country. Would those days account for my presence in Canada for me to be able to apply for citizenship? If yes, Is it ok for me to hire a representative to file my application and be out of the country? Please note, that my fiance has his own business and doesn't work for any Canadian organisation.


Please guide me with your insights, I look forward to hearing from you.


Happy Holidays!

Hello, If I get COPR via the FSW EE stream with arranged employment. Is there any requirement for the duration of my employment that I will take up after landing with the PR status us?

Just would like to be prepared for all unpredictable possibilities, e.g. if there is better job opportunities, or the arranged employment does not work out well.


Thank you!

the agent said' Based on the assessment of your information, including your request, the
supporting documentation and the information you provided during the interview, I am not
convinced that your marriage to your respondent is genuine or that it has not been established for
needs of acquiring permanent resident status in Canada.

what can i do?

My family submit citizenship application in 2003 after physically living in Canada for 3 years as PR. In 2004 We sold the house and moved out of country and were not able to submit the supporting document within time frame requested by CIC. Application was closed. More than 17 years now, is it reasonable to re-submit new application?

Thanks for your guidance, stay safe and healthy!

Hello, hope you are all doing well. The reason I am writing here is because my husband and I are literally desperate to hear the decision made by Immigration Canada about our sponsorship app. It’s been over a year but other than having his biometrics done, we haven’t received a word. We are currently living in Cuba, where the situation is becoming economically unsustainable and are so worried about our app. Is there a way we can find out the state of our app? Is there anyone who can help us out pls? Thank you so much!!
