hi
no you dont need to go back to spain.you just have to send your passport to canadian embassy where you have applied and they will issue you the visa and send it to you but be careful to send it only with fedex and ask fedex for a customer account number that means that you have to open an account with fedex in order to send the passport and receive it back from the embassy.if you want then just call the embassy and they will tell you everything.oh not to forget when you get your passport back with the visa you must leave canada and then reenter again in order to activate your PR.you can go to Buffalo and come back and the immigration of canada on the border will stamp the papers.
hi, we applied PR outside canada (spain)... then our visa is about to receive because my husband already receive his PR in canada and they told him that they will email the embassy of france ( where our visa need to process) to give us a PR visa so tat we can travel to canada. our problem is, were here in canada already (me and my 1 yr old daughter), do we need to go back in spain to get the visa, or can we receive here in canada so that we dont need to go back in spain.
thanks!
