    Spousal Sponsorship and non-accompanying children

    To the best of my knowledge, you can only send the police reports later if you are doing inland. But you're doing outland, correct?

    Spousal Sponsorship and non-accompanying children

    I guess that if the sworn affidavit is all you can do (in lieu of a custody declaration) then that's what he should do. But submit copies of the correspondence too. That can't hurt.

    Spousal Sponsorship and non-accompanying children

    I have an answer for you for question 1: Your spouse needs to get this medical exam for his child. He really needs to. The child needs to be included on the application. So: He can try to convince the mother that this is not about the child and about him immigrating to Canada. He can do this...

    Cuban marriage documents: 3 weeks once they are dropped off at the Cuban consulate Plus Inland sponsorship: 26 months from submission to CIC OR Overseas sponsorship: 12 months from submission to CIC Hope this helps.

    Obtaining a visitor visa to Canada for a Cuban citizen

    Hi again, We charge $3750 for Cuban sponsorships, regardless of "inland" vs. outside the country. That's in addition to the government fees. Also, if you want help with the Cuban marriage documents, we charge $950 for that, on top of the Cuban government fees. However, there is no obligation to...

    Obtaining a visitor visa to Canada for a Cuban citizen

    I spoke to one of our consultants and was told that pregnancy doesn't count as what is known as "Humanitarian and Compassionate Grounds" so he will just have to go through the visitor visa process like anyone else and you will both have to hope for the best.

    Obtaining a visitor visa to Canada for a Cuban citizen

    Has he tried this yet? http://www.cic.gc.ca/ctc-vac/getting-started.asp IT should tell him whether or not he will have an easy time applying. I'm not sure if there are statistics available of rejections by country. But you should mention your pregnancy in the invitation letter. That should help.

    Can we live in Canada?

    Because you are in Iraq, you might qualify for refugee status, depending on a number of variables (and not necessarily in Canada). Otherwise, you're best bet is through your education and work experience. What do you and your spouse do for work?

    How to go about this

    So would that be "Tourism Consultant" or "Management Consultant" or something else? Or just "Consultant"? I would like to look up your NOC Code. It will help me tell you whether or not you are eligible.

    Getting Married

    Hi Prost, I apologize for taking so long to reply. To answer your first question, your marriage has to be legal to be recognized, so long as you marry legally, it shouldn't matter who you tell, in theory. The problem with doing so for a spousal sponsorship application is that normally you would...

    How to go about this

    Okay. So it sounds as though you may qualify for the federal skilled worker program through the new system known as "Express Entry." Is your occupation title 'project manager' or something else?

    Extending my visitor visa

    The only thing I can suggest is sumbmitting a copy of your fiance's working holiday visa and requesting the full extension, next time you apply. Doubt it will work, but you never know.
