Okay, Thanks Rollinsc!
Also, will there be complications if we were to do an outland application and while the application is being processed she enters Canada on a TRV. I mean, will they flag the PR application (outland) if she enters Canada on TRV while the application is still being processed ? Of course, for the final stamping of immigrant visa she will have to travel back to India.
Thanks,
A.
I am pretty sure that all applications must first go to the Mississauga office in Ontario.
Also it depends how long you want to wait for her PR visa... it apparently the process is longer if you apply IN Canada than if you apply outside Canada... here look at the pros and cons on this:
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/faq/immigrate/sponsor/spouse-faq12.aspAlso you have to consider how long she will have her temporary visa for? She will have to apply for an extension most likely and sometimes you donīt get approved for that. Also if it does take a long time, and she is only on a tourist visa, she wouldn't be able to work until she gets her PR. It may make things difficult if you were to do the IN Canada application. (Immigrations likes to discourage it as well).
