Canada	AOS'rs...	My case got transfered to CSC today wooohoo	beans	Female	Canada	2009-12-04 21:21:00
Canada	AOS'rs...	Okay, so I totally jumped the gun on the reason for me receiving an RFE. Because it says this: 'For the household member's income to be included in the household income, the household membeer's income must have been from a lawful source and earned while the household member was authorized to work in the United States' And then asks to submit blah blah blah to prove work authorization. Which is a piece of cake so over the weekend I'll copy the birth certificate proving US citizenship and ship it off. But do you think I should redo the I-864 or just provide the birth certificate? lol I'm just happy its an easy fix and doesn't require a trip to the civil surgeon...yet.	beans	Female	Canada	2009-11-06 14:41:00
Canada	AOS'rs...	I sent my packet in without the i-693 because frankly I don't want to spend money if I don't have to. What sucks is if they do care about gardasil and I need to get the I-693 then the doctor will likely say I need the last installment of the series (It was due Oct 14th) lol *sigh*	beans	Female	Canada	2009-10-20 14:13:00
Canada	to become an american citizen or not	I agree with everyone else. And I am a very patriotic Canadian, I'll defend Canada until my dying day. But to be done with USCIS?

Canada	2010 Tax thread - For Canada and the U.S.	Hi Beans, You don't have to file a U.S. return this year, however it may be more beneficial for your Husband to file with you jointly. You need to work out the two different scenarios - Married filing separately and doing it as a joint return, to see if you are eligible for credits. For Canada, as Mal mentioned, you enter the date you left Canada and this will pro-rate your non-refundable tax credits etc. If you are going to do it manually then yes, you also need to get the provincial tax forms. As Mal also mentioned, much easier to do it online using Canadian tax software. Okay thanks guys, honestly I'm not going to do US taxes this year because I don't see the point in it. And I tried doing my taxes online and they kept asking me for my husbands information. Like SIN etc. He is on SS disability. So what do I do about the spousal information?	beans	Female	Canada	2010-02-28 14:14:00
Canada	2010 Tax thread - For Canada and the U.S.	Ugh...here we go: I'm easy I promise My background: Left Canada Aug 29,09-lived in MB. Stopped working in Canada Aug 22 09 I did not apply for EI, do not have an RRSP or anything like that. Didn't work in US for 2009 Received Greencard in 2010 I didn't tell the CRA I was leaving. My questions: What forms do I use for Canada and US? How do I file my provincial taxes? Or do I even do them at all?	beans	Female	Canada	2010-02-28 00:18:00
Canada	Administrative Processing?	Well tell you what. I had nothing but crazy mix ups through out the initial K1 process. From packets being sent to wrong countries to medical mix ups. But TRUST ME, once you get here the administrative end of things gets a lot easier. So, be happy knowing this junk is almost over and AOS and ROC are a lot easier	beans	Female	Canada	2011-11-20 17:21:00

Canada	What Are You Reading?	lol I agree. Twilight is not that interesting but you want to know how it ends. Or at least I did and thats how I got suckered. I found the movie really boring and uneventful. I'm currently reading 'Killing Pablo' its about Delta Force(I think, I'm on the first page, first sentence) killing Pablo Escobar. I will let you all know how it goes.	beans	Female	Canada	2009-04-04 09:38:00
Canada	What Are You Reading?	QUOTE (~Laura and Nick~ @ Apr 3 2009, 07:58 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Right now I'm reading the Twilight Saga.... I can't believe I never read it before...I love vampires. I read Twilight in one day...I'm now onto the next book "New Moon" I purchased the gift set from Amazon. I love the series!!!! lol I'm so glad I'm not the only one! My SO makes fun of me because I'm reading science fiction-ish things probably solely because I made fun of him for liking Battlestar Gallactica lol	beans	Female	Canada	2009-04-04 07:50:00
Canada	What Are You Reading?	I sadly became a 14 year old girl the past few weeks and read the entire Twilight saga It all started because I saw it at the library and was like I want to see what all the fuss is about.

Canada	Fellow Canadian VJers removing Conditions..	Honestly, it all depends on the reviewer. I submitted a copy of our lease, 6 bank statements over the span of our marriage showing joint accounts, a joint vehicle purchase, a joint auto insurance policy, a joint tax return (my husband is also disabled but where I work I added him on the file) and a couple of photos. And that was enough. I think my view on things changed on their process once I came here. I work with medical insurance including military/government based policies. And, I've learned they usually want the bare minimum to get the claim processed. So, that's what I gave them, knowing that if they needed more they would ask and I would give. I hope everyone gets approved soon	beans	Female	Canada	2012-08-24 06:17:00
Canada	Fellow Canadian VJers removing Conditions..	I had a dream Saturday night that my application was approved to the point where I woke up at 330 am grabbed my phone to see if I had an email and/or text message... lol I didn't.

Canada	Fellow Canadian VJers removing Conditions..	sent out all my stuff already..biometrics on the 30th. hoping for a speedy approval lol well now that we are adding in all that we included in the packet and i cannot edit my response. i will tell you all now our lease, 3 photos, 3 joint bank statements (one in 09, one in 10, one in 11), joint tax return for 2010, joint auto insurance, joint auto loan. there maybe more but now i honestly don't remember lol its great because now i'm not worried like it was mentioned above i'm here, i'm with my husband, if they need anything else from me they can have but i'm not going to stress. i do think i will go for citizenship next year to make myself a 100% permanent fixture here	beans	Female	Canada	2011-11-20 20:28:00

Canada	The IRS/CRA Income Tax Thread	I loathe doing taxes, and that is when they are quick and simple. Now there is a degree of complication added to it, taxes seem so painful. I guess i've got 19 pages to read before I start asking questions in the thread. Don't wanna be "That n00b" lol good luck i tried reading them all then got confused frustrated gave up and say screw it i'm asking anyways besides its a whole new tax year now	beans	Female	Canada	2010-01-19 17:30:00
Canada	The IRS/CRA Income Tax Thread	Giving this thread a bump and probably repeating a question or three.. 1. I moved to the US in August 2009 and have yet to be employed in the US. My conditional PR status was approved in 2010. Do I have to file a US tax return for 2009? 2. How the hell do you file taxes abroad? I'm not going to lie I never paid much attention to this aspect of immigration. Can you NETFILE or no? 3. If you cannot NETFILE where do you get the forms to do it manually? Which will make me sad because I always did my taxes on my own but through the joy of free tax programs lol	beans	Female	Canada	2010-01-19 03:07:00

Removing Conditions on Residency General Discussion	I-751 November 2011 Filers	We sent the taxes for 2010 only. We filed 2011 in April 2012 and he did not live here or earn money here in 2009 even though we were married so he is not on that return. Is it mostly taxes and bank statements people are getting asked for as RFE? We sent in everything except for affadavits. We sent in a huge packet of information. I included copies of mortgage on home and deed to summer place as well as utility bills for both places. I included copies of our payroll checks and bank statements showing direct deposit into those accounts.I did not send many as I thought the idea was to confirm we share an account. It never occurred to me they want to see all of the statements. Hopefully we included enough stuff. I'm just getting nervous because we are in the November VSC group. Honestly, I wouldn't worry too much until you get an RFE, if that even happens. I included 2-3 pictures of my husband and I, 5 bank statements showing a joint account( one from 2009, two from 2010, and two from 2011), copy of our lease, copy showing a joint purchase of a vehicle, copies of our auto insurance showing a joint policy, and joint taxes from 2010. This was enough and nothing else was requested. You'll be fine They just need time, there are still some stragglers from October, and this guy I work with is filing for a K1 (from Feb) and hasn't heard back on that yet either.	beans	Female	Canada	2012-08-22 19:24:00
