Re: Work Permit/ Consultancy - Complexities

Andrew's answer was pretty clear to me. You can remain in Canada for the duration of the validity of the work permit, but the only employer you can work for is the one on the original permit. ...

Re: Renewing PR card after expiry date

Re: spouse visa interview

If you've been living with your Canadian husband, you haven't lost your PR status. You just need to apply for a PR card.

Re: Car not in the customs list

You should be able to import it, but you may have to pay duties on it. Information on importing a vehicle is here: http://www.riv.ca/

Re: Help! Help! Help!

For my husband, it took about 60 days, and we put that it was for immigration, and needed ASAP on the envelope. The RCMP website says to expect to wait 120 days. I'm not sure if writing on the...

Re: Sponsorship processing way too short!!!

I wouldn't worry about it. There's no such thing as an inland application for sponsoring parents, so they didn't get confused in that respect. You may want to notify them of the address mistake,...

I would suggest trying to get a visitor record when you come back into the country. To do this, you have to tell the person (CBSA officer) at the little booth that you want to go...

Re: marriage or common law partner

Sorry, but none of this is true. I don't mean to pick on you, since a lot of the posts in this thread say the same thing, but yours is just the last one, and easiest to quote. ;)

Re: Advantage/Disadvantage of sponsoring a spouse from within canada

It's not a travel restriction per se. No foreign national, even those from visa-waiver countries, have guaranteed rights to enter Canada. Only Citizens and Permanent Residents do. Should the...

Re: Sponsorship and marriage question - HELP

Re: Inland common-law sponsorship

Re: Decision made

Yes, I have the exact same messages:

We received your application to sponsor <my husband> on March 22, 2007.

We started processing your application on April 12, 2007.

Re: Spousal Immigration

Ah, ok. I didn't know you could do the phone marriage without a proxy.

Re: Spousal Immigration

Here's an actual answer. I believe phone marriages are considered proxy marriages. If so, it's not legal under Canadian law:
