Well good for you. But your truth is not the truth of everyone. Just too bad ! It is known that that the French embassies tend to ask more to people coming from a poor African country or risky countries in Asia or Middle East. It's fact. Even though, there is list of documents to hand in. They may d...

Hi hphp, If his residence permit is still in effect, there is no worries unless it is linked to your status. If not, he needs to ask a new resident permit, either as a student or worker ASAP. If he does nothing and his visa has expired, then he may be expelled from the UK any time. especially if the...

Hello Ali, Germany would be easier since you have already been there. French representatives at the UK embassy will probably ask a lot of documents, even more if you are coming from countries such as Africa or South Asia (Pakistan. Iran...). This could be an hassle. Tell us which embassy did you cho...

Post subject: prot of entry to Canada for the first time

Hi soulfullness,

Your brother may come to Canada at any Canadian border crossings. Many people coming from the US or third countries use this way to immigrate to Canada every day. It may even take less time than an airport. Welcome for your brother and family and I wish them all the best in Canada.

The immigration officers need to know if you have a criminal record. Therefore, they'll ask you to provide Police clearance for all the countries where you have lived more 6 consecutive months. I suggest you to visit this Canadian web link for further details on this matter : http://www.cic.gc.ca/en...

i agree with both of you. But it's clearly stated on the French Government website. Even though the non-EU person is married to a EU citizen, he has to make sure that he has the right paper to stay and work in France when control by the Police. If caught alone by the Police, he may be expelled withi...

ABH is a serious offense in Canada (up to 10 years in jail). For immigration purposes, your chances to get PR card is very thin unless you get a pardon from your government and the offense is not shown on your police certificate.

Generally, you'll need to prove that you have suf...
