    Timeline Between ITA and Passport Request

    Don't worry, it is unlikely that your application is processed in just one month, plus when you receive PPR you still have an entire month to send your passport anyway.

    Renounce and sponsor again.

    Renouncing her PR status will not affect future applications, and yes you can sponsor her again, granted you still meet the eligibility requirements. The rules and process for family sponsorship may have changed and therefore you will have to get up-to-date with the new policies. No...

    CEC ITA - Proof of funds

    Having a LMIA or not is irrelevant here: under CEC no proofs of fund is required whatsoever (cf. http://www.cic.gc.ca/ENGLISH/helpcentre/answer.asp?qnum=1145&top=29). When you see contradictory information try to always double-check the CIC website to find out the truth.

    Closed work permit

    There should be an expiry date on your current LMIA. It has to be valid when you apply, otherwise I think that you will need a new one (you might want to double-check that). But of course, you first need to talk to your employer and ask whether he/she is willing to extend your job and issue you...

    Closed work permit

    If you don't get an ITA, an option is to try and extend your work permit. This would be possible only if your employer is willing to extend your position, or if another employer offers you a job and gets a positive LMIA. In that case, and if you apply before the end of your current permit, you...
