    Temporary residence visa Invitation

    I may not have been clear. Stating dual intent in the visitor visa application will, to the best of my knowledge, result in a denial. Dual intent applies at the port of entry, only if questioned about her intentions in Canada. But I am just the webmaster. You might want to speak to a lawyer or...

    My wife's grandmother was born in Canada.

    So the issue is that Canada's citizenship rules changed in 1977 so her father is likely affected by the old rules, which could mean he's not eligible but the only way she is going to find out is if they try. So, first, her father has to apply for his citizenship certificate, using his mother's...

    Apply for mothers visitor visa

    I'd strongly suggest paying a lawyer or RCIC for a review of the application, at the very least, because of two previous refusals. As to which application is better - a Super Visa is better if you want her to return in the future to visit without having to go through all of this again.

    Temporary residence visa Invitation

    Webmaster: I admin the websites, including this one. I have no actual expertise or certification in immigration, just know some stuff because I work for those that do. Well, you can always sponsor whenever. If you want to get home to look after her, she should make that clear as the purpose of...

    Crown service Uk

    Honestly I'm not sure. You might want to speak to our UK passport expert about it. My understanding is that you cannot pass it down, but I have read that you can if your parent was on "Crown Service" as that is considered equivalent of birth in the UK.

    Temporary residence visa Invitation

    So there's something called "dual intent," which is that a visitor can both intend to comply with the visitor visa rules (i.e. she will leave when the visa expires) and also intends to become a PR. If the officer knows of your intention to marry, they also have to know that your wife intends to...

    Temporary residence visa Invitation

    You do not need a visa or invitation letter due to your Canadian citizenship. Your wife needs a visa as you know. An invitation letter from your sister in Canada would make sense if you were not traveling with her but, in this case, I'm not sure it would help, given your citizenship. From what...

    First time British passport question

    Hi, That quote is misleading. It refers to when you have a British father. Since you have a British mother, you are fine to go ahead and apply for your passport. You'll need copies of her birth certificate, her passport, your birth certificate (with her name on it - long form), and your...

    Can I leave the country while my PR is being processed?

    You can apply for an open work permit because you are getting sponsored. However, it will take some time.

    British citizenship

    From your description, your mother is not British and not eligible to inherit citizenship. Sorry.

    Can I leave the country while my PR is being processed?

    Yes, you can leave the country. I would strongly suggest traveling with your fiance. Traveling with your fiance looks good - it makes the relationship look legitimate - whereas traveling without could raise concerns.

    Is study in Canada mandatory for Express entry-PNP visa sponsored by state.

    It's not mandatory but it depends upon the program. For many PNPs, a degree in that province is either a requirement or gives you many more points than not having one. The federal programs do not require Canadian education but do give points for it, as well. (And, moreover, require foreign...

    Calgari Vs. Ontario (Ottawa)

    Processing times are by office, not by province. To my knowledge, both of these cases should have been handled in Edmonton and any delays would be due to individual applications, not their location in Canada. (Unless I've missed something here.) Accommodation and car rental prices vary by city...

    illegal immigration

    Nobody knows the exact answer to your first question. I believe I've seen numbers around 200,000, but that was a guess, and it was years ago. Presumably it went up since 2016 due to people fleeing the US. People work illegally by getting paid "under the table." This means they are not on the...

    How long does the immigration fee last for after it is paid?

    I believe this depends upon whether your application was refused or abandoned, or whether it is still considered to be in progress. If it was refused or abandoned, you will have to pay again. Sorry for the bad news.
