My wife is a Canadian citizen.  She began the process for sponsoring her parents a few years ago, and almost everything has already been approved (ie. eligibility, financial support qualified, medical of parents, fees paid, etc).  Just waiting for her parent's passports to be returned with stamped visas. 

We recently got married, and she is now living with me in the U.S.  She was living and working in Canada throughout the application process, so all the applications were filled out and approved correctly.  But she has moved to the U.S. in the past few months.

Anybody know if it matters now that she is no longer living in Canada?  It certainly matters when you are applying to sponsor parents, but once you're approved, does it matter anymore?

I would assume that, because she sponsored them and she's responsible for them for the period of time that's indicated by the sponsorship agreement, it's pretty important that she remain in Canada - at least until after they land and get settled.  But I don't know for sure - so it would probably be a good idea for her to consult with an immigration attorney.  It would be terrible to have gone through the whole process and get right to the end like this - and then have their PR be denied because she's no longer in Canada, willing to honour her undertaking.
