    I'm in your same situation. Will leave after submitting the application. Due to the long processing time, I'm worried friends may change address or travel. I'm considering using a lawyer.

    I wasn't planning to share in this conversation as it's not what the post is about. But I thought I would add my two cents to this.

    Leaving Canada after submitting application

    Thank you for the reply. I have no intentions to hide and facts from the IRCC. I have already completed the necessary days in Canada to apply. But I will leave right after application.
