"visitor visa for mother"
 
   Hi, I am moving to Canada from the US, and I am trying to bring my mom over for a couple of months. Is it better to get her a visa from the consulate in the US than from her country of citizenship?

Then, is is possible to either extend her visitor visa or sponsor her for permanent residency while she is in Canada on a visitor's visa? Can I start the procedure (PR) from the US if I have a written proof (3-year work contract for a good enough salary)of my expected income in Canada?

Thanks.

oana

   It is generally preferable to process visitor visa applications at the location responsible for the jurisdiction of the residence of the applicant. It would typically be possible to seek to extend temporary resident status from within Canada.

A parental sponsorship cannot typically be initiated when the sponsor is not resident in Canada.
