Hi everyone,
Thank you for contributing this amazing forum - it's super helpful!!
I'm currently applying to be sponsored by my wife inland. We were married last April.
About me: I have a multi entry TRV which is valid until March 2021 and currently living with my spouse (we have a rental in Canada under both of our names since 2016). I'm also applying for OWP.
A few questions about the forms:
1) As I'm self employed and can work distantly, I visit her periodically in the last 3 years and I don't stay for any period longer than 6 months as law requires. Currently, I have 3 months left before I have to leave and re-enter. Should I exit before applying or should I leave in 3 months and re-enter (with her)?
2) In IMM 0008enu - Question 10 says - Current country residence - Should I write Canada as I'm currently in Canada? "From" and "to" indicates the time I last enter Canada and 6 months from that time or should I put the date which my TRV is valid until?
3) In IMM 5669, there is a section for addresses. As a last address, should I put the current apartment we live in Canada although I'm not a resident here? If so, should the starting date be the last time i entered (3 months ago) or back in 2016 when we rented the place?
4) My current passport is valid until April 3, 2021. If I am issued a PR visa, is it issued into my passport or will a physical card be given? Is it fine for me to renew my passport after the PR visa is issued so that I have the sticker in my new passport?
I appreciate your answers in advance!
