Immigration-A Little Assistance

[RedMan1892]

Hi ,

My parents and I currently reside in India. My sister who has got her Canadian Citizenship, applied for famliy class sponsorhip in June2009....We have been informed that this procedure takes between 4-5 years to process completly.
My query is that during that time period{4-5yrs....} can I apply for a student visa as I want to study MBA in Canada (I have the required work exp and qualifications) or do I need to wait till the immigration process completes {I've been told that there is no defnitive timeline and processing time differs from application to application}.
Any information provided on this would be much appreciated

Thanks,
Bruce.

Yes, you can apply for a student visa separately from the PR sponsorship of your sister, you don't need to wait.
