Hi Raul, 1. For Federal Skilled trades, it depends on your occupation whether or not you do not need education and you can only go by what the "NOC" says: http://www23.statcan.gc.ca/imdb/p3VD.pl?Function=getVD&TVD=122372&CVD=122376&CPV=6321&CST=01012011&CLV=4&MLV=4 This is open to...

Credential just means "degree", "diploma", "certificate" etc. Sorry for using jargon.

Hi Raul, Thanks for the further explanation. Just to let you know, a "degree", "diploma" or "certificate" are often used synonomously, and what matters is the length of the program, the area of study and the institution itself, not the type of certificate awarded. FYI. 1. You are correct...

Hello, Internships cannot count as work experience, sorry. For Skilled Trades or Skilled Worker, you can only count work experience earned after you got your "credentials". Any idea what your NOC Code is? If not, what's your specific occupation? Is it a chef or is it something else? Riley

Hi Raul, Sorry to hear about that. We've never actually heard a story like that before, ourselves (though I'm sure it happens more often than we think). Why were they looking at your phone? We would suggest getting the job offer, the LMIA and then applying for either a temporary work permit or...

Neither of you would normally need a visa. Your husband will be admitted as a visitor though, and that may only be for 6 months. If you want to stay here for 12, he may have to apply for an extension, depending on what is stamped in his passport on arrival.

For inland applications, you can submit your police clearances later, it turns out. Hope that helps.

Hi Dion, Well, as long at the PR Card is valid, your husband should be allowed re-enter Canada. However, people who do not have enough days in Canada to renew their PR Cards will likely get a lecture - at the very least - when re-entering. It all depends on what questions are asked at the...

Inland can be done for any nationality, provided the spouse to be sponsored is allowed into Canada. I'm not sure what you are saying about the PR Card...working for a Canadian employer outside of Canada allows the days outside of Canada to credit towards days inside of Canada (for permanent...

The rules didn't change, only the process of how you apply. Here is some information: http://www.immigroup.com/express-entry http://www.immigroup.com/news/express-entrys-comprehensive-rating-system

Well, I think if you have your lease, your marriage license and your husband's job offer on you, you should be alright. You will be admitted as a visitor and you can apply for an "open" work permit or study permit at the same time that you apply for inland sponsorship. Those are often approved...

Hi, Well, applying at the border is a bit of a euphamism. You just tell them this is what you're up to, and if you have all the documentation, it looks legit. The actual application is filed later. Any sponsorship application is very complicated, you will have to prove your relationship is...

Everything you need to know is there. But if you have any more questions, feel free to ask.

If you marry her in the Philippines, you will have to sponsor her "overseas"; that takes 17 months. If she gets visa and marries you in Canada while visiting you, you will sponsor her "inland"; that takes 22 months, but has the option of applying for a work permit which, if granted, would be...

Yes. That isn't the issue. The issue is whether or not your country recognizes dual citizenship.

I don't know. I would need more information to answer that question. You can email me at [email protected] and I can see what I can do.

It depends on numerous factors. How are you trying to come here? As a worker or as a student or some other way?

If you are a Canadian citizen, you normally do not require a visa to visit or conduct business (temporarily) in the United States.

You would likely be eligible for the skilled trades program among other immigration streams: http://www.immigroup.com/skilled-trades-stream

You need to demonstrate you can pay for your visit. I am not sure there is an exact number. If you are coming for a short time, $100 per day you are here is reasonable, I think.
