There were no fees at all, and about the b4 forms don't worry yourself over it, they didn't take it from me at the airport, they just give you another form on the plane that you have to fill.
Thanks a lot my brother.

Hello everyone,
i ve been reading through this topic and i find it very helpful as am still preparing my papers to send to my husband in Canada so that he apply for PR for me..

i wanted to ask you guys if am applying for visitor visa also (online) should i mention the PR thing as a reason for visiting, and also i left my job after getting married, zn i dont have ties in my country of resident (i applied for visitor visa before i got married and been refused) will it be different now am married?

thank u so much for helping :)
You are very welcome here. To be honest with you there is no rules for visitor visa inside canadian embassy. I know someone he had American green card and they refused his visa . So I think if you can wait until you send your application for pr and your husband get approved then you apply for visitor visa. I did that

no am egyptian and he's a Canadian citizen.. guess our only red flag (according to what ppl posted here before) is that our relation was too short (4 months before we got married) and he visited one time for 2 weeks.. but we have lots of photos from wedding and katb kitab and honeymoon.. his parents attended the wedding.. we both born Muslims.. he's older than me wiz 2 years.. so i guess there will be an interview right??

am still doing my medical, translating my papers and zn will send him everything isA..

i was hoping i would apply for VV and when he come back nxt time (which is in 2 months) i could go back wiz him for 3 months or so till the PR go through.. any advice ?

After I applied for PR in feb2013 I applied for VV in may 7. And they told me Vv processing time one month.but embassy called me after 29 days and they told me my PR is ready and they asked me for 2 photos. So I get PR visa. That is all.

Visitor Visa while waiting for PR visa

Hi all, has anyone out there applied for a visitor visa to Canada while waiting for their PR? My husband would like to come visit me, but we are wondering if it is worth the effort and time? Any experience about this and information would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you!

As long as you can support yourselves without the need of government (Canadian) assistance then your employment situation is not their concern. Your sponsor may have to provide evidence to establish that.

The expectation is that the sponsor would be responsible to maintain their primary applicant. So bank statements of savings or support from friends/family while the 2 of you establish yourselves would be good to have ready in the event it becomes an issue.

Okay, thanks for this. We may try, just to see. I am surprised that they would deny this visa, since it is clear that we are going through all the correct channels to get the PR visa. There is no way we would do anything to screw it up now!

Any other thoughts or insights would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
