Hi, I sponsored my parents in March 2011 and send additional documents as per cic's request in Oct 2014.......didn't receive AOR yet and no sign of Sponsorship approval. I also requested ATIP report almost 1 and half month back.....no reply yet. I called cic but was told to wait.
Also, i want to apply for visitor visa for my parents. DO you think there will be any problems getting one; since their PR application is in-process.Any suggestions anybody??

Hi

Hello
I am a dual Canadian/UK citizen & my partner has PR for Canada which expires in May
Unfortunately, although we regularly travel between the 2 countries, we have not been living in Canada for the required 2 years out of 5 - this is due to my partner having to be in the UK for legal counsel & medical reports etc. for a compensation claim following an accident at work. This was meant to have been settled over a year ago but the goalposts are moved every 6 months & settlement is now anticipated for June. Plus I have a business in UK that I have been trying to sell.
My question is; once we declare our absences from Canada will my partner get his PR renewal? Will it be better as I am a citizen? Or should we just let his PR expire & reapply for his PR once we actually come to live for good, hopefully following June?

Feeling worried............

1. As you are a Canadian citizen and if you are accompanying your partner abroad, his PR is safe.

You may also count days outside of Canada as days for which you satisfy the residency obligation in the following circumstances:

OPTION 1. Accompanying a Canadian citizen outside Canada

You may count each day that you accompanied a Canadian citizen outside Canada provided that the person you accompanied is your spouse, common-law partner or parent (if you are a child under 19 years of age).

Evidence required

You must provide supporting documents to prove that:
The person you are accompanying is a Canadian citizen; and
You are the spouse, common-law partner or child of that person.

Fantastic news - we can prove all of that
Big weight lifted..............
Thank you so much :-) :-)

Just one more quick question - can he apply while in UK with me? Or does he have to be in Canada for application?

Hello all,

So i was sponsered by my wife and i came to canada in November 2011 as a permanent resident.

We had our child in October 2012. With the time, our relationship deteriorated and we separated in December 2013.

Now i want to apply my citizenship and my wife is threatening me to have me deported. She had also filed a divorce.

Can anyone help me out from this stressfull stituation?

Thanks

AH

My family's just got PR and plan to land on May 2015.

However, some of my properties and stock in stock market cannot sell in time.

So I plan to bring money in just enough to fulfil "the proof of fund" and transfer in later in 6 months.

Do I need to pay tax for that?

Greetings,

To fulfill my Residency Obligation to stay in Canada for 2 years out of 5 years, I must return to Canada before 15-Jul-2015.

I have my own child (now 1.5 years old) who was born outside Canada and holds an Indian Passport.

In order to return to Canada along with my newborn child, I am supposed to approach nearest Canadian Embassy to get Entry Visa for my newborn child. Here I am confused, should I apply for TRV or TRP ?

Although there are ample Blogs/Discussions related to the same issue !

But, I did not find any satisfactory/straight answer endorsed by CIC or related competent authorities from Canada.


Your advise/guidance might help hundreds of people facing same issue as mine.

Thanks - MUZI

Hello,Im a canadian citizen,and my husband is
an israel citizen,i want to do a sponsorship
for him,since he currently lives in israel,and
wants to join me in toronto.

my question is,how long can it take from the moment
we complete the sponsorship request ,to the moment he
gets accepted,and how much time will it take for him
to get a immigration visa(working & staying visa).

in other words how much time does it takes to complete
the whole process of him coming here and being able
to find a job,since we dont want him to be job-less
for too long :)

Hi,

Have a PR card expiring in Nov. I read that its a good idea to apply 6 months before it expires but not more than 9 months before. That means I can apply as of Feb, however if I send the application out am I still allowed to travel? I will be out of the country from Feb to August (6 months) which means I will be back before my current car expires but if I wait my renewal will not be completed before my old card expires (with current processing times).

What should I do?
