Hi there. Statutory declaration is a document they confirms your relationship to Canadian citizen or permanent resident. It’s a two page document that needs to be filled out and signed by your Canadian relative and then stamped by an authorized Canadian representative, like a notary. Your relative will need to bring it to the notary for signing and stamping. Do you have a relative that is Canadian resident or citizen?

You are very welcome!😊 are you planning to apply this year?

Hi there. If you are going through a US land border crossing enrolment centre, they have combined interviews. So you would only have to go to one location, same as we did for our interview. You can also double check and call the specific enrolment centre you sign up for. Do you already know where you will be taking your interview?

Yes, interviews can sometimes be nerve wracking. What exactly sounds scary to you?)

I’m glad we could help!😊 Have you already applied? What was the most difficult part of your application?

These are all great museums for sure! We could’t possible visit all of them during our stay in CDMX, especially considering that some estimate Mexico City to have the most amount of museums than any other city. Which ones are your absolute favourites? What TOP-5 would you recommend us visit next time?

@@urielcervantes-on3st amazing! By the way, Biblioteca Vasconselos is one of my favourite buildings in Mexico City! We mention it in our other video about overlooked museums in CDMX. Consider watching it as well and let us know what you think:)

Hi there! That’s a really good question! It can be tricky with the countries or territories that changed the name or jurisdiction. But in your case, I think you provided all information to the best of your knowledge. If your husband only has Canadian citizenship now, and doesn’t have UK citizenship, you stated everything correctly. The officers might ask your husband about where he was born or whether he ever had other citizenships - in this case it would make sense to elaborate and tell them what you described here. The interview is more of a conversation rather than a test of your application knowledge:) so answer the questions they ask calmly, be concise, don’t dive too deep into explanations - just a “question-answer” format. Let us know how it goes! Good luck!

Hi there. If there’s no relatives with Canadian citizenship or PR, you won’t be able to apply through this particular program. I would recommend looking into Express Entry - once you have worked in Canada for 1 year, you should be eligible to apply through Canadian Experience worker. Are you familiar with this program?

That’s correct. Someone already commented about this error. It is, of course, the work of Pedro Ramirez Válazquez

You should have an invitation in your account, where you applied on the portal. You may also try accessing through Trusted Traveler Program website - there will be a directory called “Interview”->”Find and Enrolment Centre”. Let us know how it goes:)

We do mention that you are required to bring all your passports with you. Moreover, passport is always required when crossing the border. So naturally, you would need to have it with when you attend an interview as it is conducted in the United States. Did you manage to reschedule your interview?

@@natashtepa I was able to get in a couple of weeks later by selecting Reschedule the Interview in the Nexus portal, and completed the US portion of the interview a few months ago. Hope to be able to use the card soon!

@@TomJones-wi4nh Happy to hear you managed to get through with the interview! Let us know how long it’s going to take for you to get the card

That is really quick! Good for you:) it looks like they have finally managed to get through the Covid backlog and are now processing applications in a timely manner. Make sure to bring all your required documents with you. And let us know how the interview goes;)

Good to hear you had such a smooth process! Was the interview scheduling easy as well? Did they have enough openings?

@@natashtepa yes! Interview scheduling was easy. Earliest date was August 6th but we decided to take the 8th instead since it’s our anniversary 🙂. So it would be a good day trip to the US that day!

@@EPICWILDETAILING what a nice way to celebrate your anniversary🥰 have a great trip!

It took you less than a month from application to approval? That’s a really fast turnaround! Well done🙌🏻😃

@@natashtepa yes! 3 weeks from the application to the conditional approval. It was for both of us. So i dont think it was a random conditional approval or if my credit card had to do something about it.

@@EPICWILDETAILING that’s great! I’m glad to hear they managed to work through their backlog and are not delaying applications anymore🙌🏻

That’s where we did ours! And yes, the location is weirdly placed, it’s easy to miss the turn😬 so make sure to come with extra time just in case. And good luck! Let us know how it goes;)

@@natashtepaApproved! Very easy. Asked me why I wanted it (For Travel in the US) and then told me the rules and that’s basically it. Didn’t even have to talk to the Canadian Officer.

Hi there. You can only apply through your child when they are at least 18 years old. Otherwise, I suggest you look into other immigration options like Express Entry.

Yes, you can do that with any destination. On Departure, just go to Nexus lane for security check. And on Arrival, you could go through eGates or Nexus lane.

Hi there. If you are doing a land border interview, it’s all going to be in one place. For documents, make sure to take your passports and another ID. Passport will also serve as your proof of citizenship, so no need for additional citizenship document. You’ll also need proof of your residency, like drivers license. You may also check Nexus official site in case you need to bring any additional documents. Good luck with the interview, and let us know how it goes;)

Hi there. Some museums have dubbed English descriptions, some don’t. We used google translate app - it has a camera feature that translate the text live. It was very helpful in such situations:) In terms of best time to visit, I think this city is great anytime of the year! It may get pretty hot in the summer months. December and January can be colder, so do take sweaters and long pants. And take into account that it can be colder inside as they don’t have central heating and windows are fairly thin. I can say that end of February-March was the most comfortable weather wise. It was warm enough but not too hot. And the Jacaranda trees were in bloom - very special sight🤩 When are you planning to go?

@natashtepa Honestly, I'm not sure. I've been watching videos about CDMX for a while but have not decided when the best time to visit is. I'm also keen on knowing if there are other places close to CDMX worth visiting like Taxco? Also, I'm based in MENA, so it will take around 14 hours to reach CDMX😐

Hi there. Did you already get your interview invitation? If not, you may try to edit your application with you new residence address. If this can’t be done, you should let the officer know at the interview that you address has changed. It’s not an uncommon practice, sometimes the application time takes several months (or in our case years due to Covid), and it’s natural that some original information you provided in your application may change, like travel history, work, or residency. Let us know how it goes, and good luck!

@@natashtepa I received the interview invitation.

@@ashraj3302 as mentioned in the previous comment, you may address this during the interview itself. There’s nothing wrong with moving to a different location, life happens and I’m sure the officers will understand it:) good luck! And let us know how it goes;)

Hi there. We are here for information only and to share are own experience. We don’t provide private consultations as we are not lawyers. I suggest you reach out to qualified immigration lawyers for any questions related to this program

It’s a fine line. You have to be in Canada at the time of application for PR and at the time of your approval for PR. The “in between” period technically allows for travel outside of Canada (if you have proper document that allow you to enter Canada), but generally it is recommended to stay in Canada while you wait for your application to be approved.

@@natashtepaThank you very much, that's good, but actually I don't see any rule that person need to be present in Canada right now, there questions like where do you live right now, and other , and also where do you plan to live in Canada, How do you think ? or I missed something? I will be thankful for the answer ))

@@comanchmax this is just a recommendation. Legally you are allowed to leave Canada and come back as long as you have valid documents to do so (entry visa, valid passport etc)

Not just citizenship - relatives who have permanent residence are eligible too. Are you applying through this program?

@@natashtepa у нас нет родственников с перманентом, мы не можем податься

@@T_O_M_A_T in that case we suggest you look into other pathways for immigration, like Express Entry. You can check out our earlier video with this program’s overview called How to Move to Canada: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hN-doJyBmZrIkn0.htmlsi=8wyj0Wtk4G7Ro7BJ

@@natashtepa об этой программе знают все, но не все могут расчитывать на перманент даже если будет соблюдать все условия доя его получения. Это лотерея простыми словами. 🙁

It depends where you plan to take it. If you schedule at land border Enrolment Centre, you could have a joint interview. You can also have split interview. Once you book your first part of the interview, the other one will be automatically booked for you in the other side of the border on the same day. There’s a third option, if you choose to have your interview in a Canadian airport. You’ll have your Canadian interview scheduled in the airport enrolment centre, and then the US part will be done during your next flight to the US - it will take place in a pre-clearance location of a Canadian airport of your departure. Do you already know where you want to have your interview?

@@natashtepa thank you so much for the response I have scheduled usa side Niagara EC which I think will take care of both sides at the same time. Im scheduled tomorrow. I have a few doubts which I cant share here publicly. How can I get on a call with you ? Do you have instagram?

@@iashaikh20 we don’t provide private consultations - are videos are information only and we just share our experience with something we’ve done ourselves. All you have to do for your interview is be honest and answer the questions they ask you as directly and concise as possible. Good luck on the interview! Let us know how it goes:)

@@natashtepa hi.. interview went well. Got approved in no time. Did it at Rainbow Bridge crossing Niagara border - whirlpool. Now am i correct to conclude this card has tsa precheck and global entry and can also be used in sentri lanes ?

@@iashaikh20 ​​⁠​​⁠congratulation! How much time did the interview take? And to answer your questions, yes, TSA pre-check, Global Entry and SENTRI lanes can be used. Make sure to input you traveler number during your flight check-in - this needs to be done in order to use Nexus lines in the airports.

Antonio Toledo?? Vaya que mala información!!?

Thank you, we glad you liked our video! And thanks for catching our error - of course it was Pedro Ramirez Vasquez!🙈 What other buildings by this architect in CDMX do you know of? Any notable ones you’d recommend visiting?

You’re welcome🙂 are you planning to get your nexus card?

Thank you for sharing your experience! It looks like you had a joint interview in one enrolment center. How long did you have to wait for available interview slots at this location?

Hi there! You may apply as a parent of Canadian citizen when they turn 18. Before that, you might want to look into other immigration programs like Express Entry.

Hi there! When you say “international passport”, I assume you mean your Ukrainian passport meant for travel (not national passport)? If so, then yes - this is the document you need to provide in a travel section. Not national passport. National passport may be provided in a document section, but it is not mandatory. If you decide to add it, it needs to be translated

Hi there! July is going to be a hot month in Istanbul and it would sure be nice to dip into a refreshing sea:) Even though Istanbul is located on the sea, it doesn’t have beaches in the central area of the city. You would have several options and they would all require a couple of hours to get to the beach. One would be to follow our advise mentioned in this video and visit the Princes Islands. There you’ll find beach clubs, some of which will have entertainment for kids like water slides etc. Another option would be to go a bit north towards the Black Sea - the water is a bit Calder there, but I’ve heard they have nice beaches as well. Look up Bamboo Beach or Kumköy area. An additional option would be to fly to the Mediterranean shore, but I’m assuming you’re limited in time and might find this too much of a hassle. Hope you can find the option that does your needs best. Enjoy your vacation!

Hi there, if you booked your interviews from separate accounts, then you will have them with separate officers. It shouldn’t matter much though - if they are scheduled at the same time, you’ll be close to each other but will be talking to different people. This shouldn’t affect your interview results in any way. Try to be calm and answer precisely what they ask. It’s going to be like a conversation, all based on the information you provided in your application, so they won’t be asking something you don’t know:) Best of luck and let us know how it goes!

Thank you!! I assume they won't make our kid interview alone, will they?? He's not even 7 yet. 😬

@@sunbakedbear they actually have a requirement that a minor needs to be accompanied by their parent. So if one you takes your child through an interview, it is totally acceptable.

@@natashtepa A few updates! We went today for our interviews (thanks for helping calm my nerves! It was a piece of cake). They took our whole family together but asked if it was okay that we were interviewed together or if we wanted to be interviewed separately. They DO require both your passport AND birth certificate now; this is a recent change and you must have both (apparently before they were letting people through with just a passport but now they're saying that's changed/changing). Also, if you've had a name change, they require the name change certificate, which also isn't stated on the website. (I thankfully took mine "just in case" as a last-minute grab as we dashed out the door!) They're now saying it's four weeks until cards will be shipped.

@@sunbakedbear Hi, did you mean birth certificate of the child? My son is 15 years old and not born in Canada? We have the interview coming up, so was wondering, and as usual I’m a bag of nerves

Hi there. Thank you for sharing your experience! Did you have to book in advance or were the tickets available on the spot?

They are not the same, but TSA precheck and Global Entry are included in Nexus. So yes, you can use them with your Nexus card

From what I am learning, you can use Global Entry anywhere Nexus or Sentri is used, but not the other way around. And you get TSA Pre ✅️ with Global Entry. Each of the programs (excluding Pre ✅️) function the same. The difference is where they are avaliable, and to whom they are avaliable. Nexus is a jount program for US & Can citizens and is avaliable only at the US/Can boarder. Sentri is the sam for US/Mex. Where those two are in both directions, Global Entry is only one way into the US and at all/most entry points. All three of these are for air, land or sea entries. TSA Pre ✅️ make airport security faster and easier. I would challenge everyone, do your own research. And if I am wrong about anything, let me know. I am learning myself, and want correct information.

Good luck! Let us know how it goes:)

Thank you for watching🙂 Mexico City is one of our favourite! It’s so rich in history and culture, you can’t get bored in there:) Do you live in CDMX or are you a fellow traveler as us?)

Pretty much all the beaches are private. The island has a lot of rocks and there’s no sandy beaches, and it’s hard to get there without a buggy or a ferry. So they do charge you some fee for that

Hi there! This island is named Büyükada and the ferry station is called Adalar. It’s the biggest island in the archipelago and has the most activities. Are you planning to go there for one day or also to stay overnight?

What are these places?

Last ferry from Adalar to Istanbul departs at 6 pm. So it’s more likely to catch the sunset when you’re already on the boat, which is great in its own way:)

Yes

Türkiye is the best🙌🏻 have you been to Istanbul or Adalar?

@@natashtepa Alanya in 2021 ^‿^

@@kristofferkellinsalmi amazing! Yes, Alanya is great - Cleopatra beach and the castle❤️

Thanks for watching🙂 what other productivity tools do you recommend us to review?

As stated in the list of documents, you do require a passport and PR card. If you don’t have all required documents available, you won’t be able to apply

I believe you should follow your official documents and residence address. If your actual residence is not mentioned on any of your documents, there’s no reason to mention it on the application either

Hi there. You don’t need to specify each city you visited - just mention one main one that you stayed in the most. All others can be considered transit and are not required. Let me know if this helps or if you have any more questions:)

@@natashtepa thank you for your reply! Can I ask one more question? We took a photo a month ago according to the requirements for pr in Kazakhstan, will the officer be confused by the fact that the address and name of the studio are written in Kazakh on the stamp? Or is it better to take another photo here in Canada?

@@NarArup as per official guide, there are no specific requirements in regards to the language of the note. As long as your name and date of birth are mentioned, as well as the date the photo was taken, you should be fine. Was the photographer's info hand written or stamped? And does it include the required information?

But his girl is pretty

Which one are you talking about? Do you have a specific timestamp?

Hi there, great question! Your family can come with you to your interview, but will most likely be asked to wait outside of the interview office. Also, I do believe it depends on location, so if you are concerned, you may give them a call in advance to check. There are two steps of the interview: with Canadian and US border officers. You’ll have to do them both. What enrolment center are you planning to have your interview in?

Thank you. The Lancedowne, Thousand Islands land enrollment center. Plan to do it on my next US trip, that's why I would have my family with me. I can get through the interview and continue my journey into the states for the family trip. The interview dates are available to be booked online, so should I still call them? The Nexus card applications for my family are still in process while I am at the interview stage.

@@DS-hz6mt I'm sure you should be fine with letting your family wait for you outside of the enrollment center. As long as they have proper rights/document to enter US (which they should be with their Canadian passports). Good luck:)
