CIC approval

Yeah, I received my CIC approval letter in the mail yesterday. So my dossier is quickly coming together. Hopefully I will have it all gathered shortly to send off to my agency in BC for notarization!

Canadian Immigration ?single??

Sorry it's been so long since I have blogged. I have been having some issues with accessing my account now that I have a gmail email address...have to love technology. I am fooling it right now by blogging from my work computer ...and hopefully IT at work (not really I have no clients to see and never take breaks).

So I have applyed immigration clearance to sponsor my future congolese child to be able to enter the country. I got a call while at work last week from CIC. They asked if I was the same person who had applying to bring a child into the country from the US. So I said 'yes'. Then began an interesting conversation. "Well that person is down as married." "Oh" I said, "I am not married". "So you think it is a mistake"she said. "Yes" I say. She then askes if I have ever been married -No. Then she asks me if I am sure. Hummm let me think, did I accidentally get married somewhere along the way and forget about it? No! Okay she saiys, must have been a mistake..Yup! And I'm pretty sure on their end. But after the phone call I was wondering how you would prove you are single? It's pretty hard to prove a negative. Apparently I also didn't include a form I needed to but that it wasn't clear that I needed to include, but she was nice enough to give me a fax number and name to fax it attention to. So hopefully I will have immigration clearance shortly and can tick off one more thing on the dossier check list!
