Re: costs for dealing with the immigration process

That's a very common question and the usual answer is that unless there is something particularly complicated or unusual about your circumstances there really, really isn't any need to spend money on...

Re: Assimilate, or try and stay British

I'm looking forward to throwing myself itself the whole process of assimilating. I actively want to assimilate. I just can't imagine not doing so. I guess I have an "advantage" in that I really can't...

Re: Exipirey of PR....

It strikes me that a lot of people seem to fixate on their PR cards and when they expire when, at the end of the day, they are really only little pieces of plastic and what they really, really ought...

Expired Passport and entering the UK

A purely hypothetical question (honestly!). It's just something I've wondered about.

Let's say someone is a dual-national, British and something else. They let their British passport expire and...

Re: Thomas Cook Baggage Allowance

Canadian Affairs uses both Air Transat and Thomas Cook Airways. Looking at their websites, Air Transat allows one piece of carry-on and a laptop, while Thomas Cook only allows one item.

Re: Canada to the USA by air, what do I do.

The US immigration people will treat you exactly the same way as they would if you were flying there from the UK. Your Canadian PR status is irrelevant to them.

Do you know if you are elligible...

Re: Medical - North East England

Re: Can you get a Student Visa at the Buffalo High Commission?

Off topic, but it is a pet hate of mine that just plain bothers me when I keep reading people calling the High Commission in London the Canadian "Embassy". I thought that that was bad enough, but a...

Which is pretty irrelevant. I assume from your posts that you aren't a US citizen and you clearly aren't a Canadian citizen. What exactly is your status in the US? You can't be a permanent resident...

Re: Fast-tracked Canadian visa could be implemented

Sorry, but I think that I'd urge a note of caution here. I think the people that are still waiting from 06/07 should be optimistic and positive that their applications will be processed faster than...

Re: Fast-tracked Canadian visa could be implemented

No, not really. Sure, the people applying under the new scheme are obviously getting their applications processed much faster than ours (the 06/07 applicants) were/are, but on the other hand the...
