Please give me some information about how to get a guarantor for PR CARD. Because a qualify guarantor is not only a canada citizen but also has certain title.Most of time I work at USA,so it is very hard for me to find a doctor or dentist at canada.
Please tell me if there are some law offices or commission agency at vancouver who has this kind of service.
Thanks a lot
 
Have you completed 2 years from the date of landing? If not you will have to get it notarized.

Please see my other posts about PR Card. I have provided information as to where one can get their pictures taken and also the notary information.

Guarantor Info

Vault,

I am planning to keep my cousin as my Guarantor.He is a PR and I landed in 2002.I think you mentioned that the person needs to be in Canada for 2 yrs inorder to have a guarantor.Will it be an issue if I keep my cousin as my Guarantor?Appreciate your comments.

Thanks,

Raj009,

Is your cousin in a profession (CPA/Doctor) to sign the gautantor section of the application? Also if you bacame a landed immigrant less than 2 years from the date you sign the application for PR card, you cannot and should not get the gaurantor section filled. Insted you should get it notarized.
 
Thanks Vault

Thanks Vault for your response.My cosuin is an Engineer in Toronto.I became an immigrant only this year.I will get it notarized .I thought that the criteria is that the person who sign as a guarantor should know us for 2 years regardless of when we became immigrants.Notarizing the document will make my life easier.

Once again appreciate your response.I hope that you are positive regarding this.
 
Raj009,

Get it notarized to avoid complications wit CIC. They are very ver picky. I called them before I submitted my application, since one of our family friend is a CPA, and he has known me since I was a kid. Guess what the CIC folks told me? If you have not been a landed immigrant for 2 years, you cannot get a gaurantors signature. You will have to get it notarized, even though you know some one who can be a gaurantor.
 
I think to avoid troubel and delay, all (regardless of how long you have been here) should get it Notarized.
