Well I am August 01 2019 sponsor. Our case hasn’t moved further then AOR2 that was feb 28 2020.
Thanks for the reply. He’s been saving for his move here and doesn’t have to pay for anything when he visits because I’m currently living with my parents until our application is approved and we’ll get a place when he’s finally here permanently. But, we had lots of visits cancelled due to the pandemic and were in the end stages of the application. Obviously we have no idea of knowing when it’ll be approved but we miss each other and he wants to visit but won’t be able to get the time he needs off work so he just wanted to quit and come visit for a month or two and then go back. He would still have a car at home he needs to pay for etc. We’re not gonna bother if it’s too much of a hassle but just wondering what sort of issues we’d run into.
Is there a way his work will allow a leave of absence and write a letter indicating he’d have a position still waiting for him when he returns? That, plus the demonstration of funds to support himself and pay for any healthcare issues, plus a place he can clearly demonstrate is a place he has a home address (bills, rental agreement?) in the States to which he would return, would likely satisfy officers of his ability to be in Canada without being a drain on the system and of his ties to and intent to return to the States.
It might be just a visit, but...I replied with the questions I’ve been asked at the border as an American spouse of a Canadian citizen coming to visit for an extended period - before we had a pandemic that restricted border traffic. My hope is that your spouse has those things thought out and documented (along with proof of your marriage), and then CBSA lets them through with a minimum of fuss.
We recieved our AOR2 on Nov 12th and nothing else since then!
