I wish Canada would lift the visa requirements for Mexicans.. which was only suppose to be temporary in the first place. Some people speculated it would happen in 2012.. but I don't see that happening.  In light of what is happening with the drug cartels and the crime that is increasingly happening in the U.S. surrounding that issue, it is very doubtful that that will happen any time soon. An interesting story of CNN talks about this issue. http://www.cnn.com/2012/06/09/us/mexican-cartels-small-town-usa/index.html?hpt=hp_c1

That's a good article, but drugs coming into Canada wasn't the reason the visa restriction was issued. It was too many refugee claims. But I guess if Mexican people felt safer in their country, there would be less people claiming refugee status.

That's true. But drugs and violence are a big issue now and that will affect any decisions.

Hello everyone. I need to post a couple questions to your forum, hoping that you can shed some advise...
I am a Mexican currently living in Mexico but plan to make the move to Canada in Sep. I already have my PR card and all but just married a Mexican woman last month, whom I want to sponsor as soon as I settle down.
1) I've seen confusing references as to wether there is a proof of income requirement for the sponsor. One ref. said that it did not apply to sponsor spouses or children. My concern is that I have not worked in Canada in the past and I don't know how long it could take for me to find a job in Canada to have a proof of income. I have plenty of savings in Mexico to demonstrate that I am financially sound to support us both while I find work. The question is: Can I apply for her sponsorship if I dont have this proof of income from Canada?
2) Assuming my sponsorship app. is accepted, and while it is processed, can she enter Canada on a visitors visa and stay with me for periods of 6 months (even if she cant work)? She already has her own visitor's visa valid through 2014.
Any suggestions are most wellcomed. Thank you.

If it isn't too much trouble, could you add Mexico City AOR to the spreadsheet?
Not a problem at all

You are right it really is the worst feeling My case isnt straighforward and thats what really worries me.. can I ask you about a situation is yours not a straightforward case? You have been waiting since Oct 2010? Our issue is he had a past deportation.. from what I was advised the impact is we will have an extra 2 months added to our wait and an extra $400 for the letter we need signed by the immigration ministor.. I am really so worried about it.. and i have no issue with living in mexico..i just want to be with him i dont care where.. so i guess thats why im looking into the option of moving there while waiting for the papers..because who knows what the timelines really could be.. My fiance was also deported, what kind of deportation order did he get and how long was the ban ? That will change the waiting period and complexity depending on these. I also understand your situation because i am in Canada, he is in Mexico and I have a young daughter in school so the option to pick up and go live in Mexico isnt there due to costody restraints. and I hear you on the vacation time, its hard to work around, we have not seen eachother (besides skype) in 10 months now, between finances (cost of all this immigration stuff) and holidays, I have had no way to be able to see him to at least September, so know that you are not alone and time for us has gone quicker than expected. We try to concentrate on our plans for when he come back and getting things set up, if we concentrate on the immigration part we both go squirly. But I would say if you have an option to go live with him DO IT !!! I would in a heartbeat, it can be alot of strain being seperated and it will make the process that much easier ! thats my two cents
