Hey all -- wandering over here from the UK sub-forum to ask a question on behalf of my UK husband's PhD supervisor (only a wee bit complicated there!). He's a UKC married to a Canadian, and they are considering moving to Canada. Do any of you fine people know if there is an equivalent to VJ for people looking to immigrate to Canada?

Thanks!!! :thumbs:

Canadians Visiting the USA while undergoing the visa process, my free advice:

1) Always tell the TRUTH. never lie to the POE officer

2) Be confident in ur replies

3) keep ur response short and to the point, don't tell ur life story!!

4) look the POE officer in the eye when speaking to them. They are looking for people lieing and have been trained to find them!

5) Pack light! No job resumes with you

6) Bring ties to Canada (letter from employer when ur expected back at work, lease, etc etc)

7) Always be polite, being rude isn't going to get ya anywhere, and could make things worse!!

8) Have a plan in case u do get denied (be polite) It wont harm ur visa application if ur denied,that is if ur polite and didn't lie! Refer to #1

LSS app returned because of missed signatures, lost in transit, resubmitted in June

But it's really self explanatory.. a lot more than US Immigration. Just download the guides on the CIC website...
