Can I start the application?

[olivertwist]

Hi Everyone,

I was just wondering if i can start submitting the application right now for sponsoring my 2nd spouse. Even if the 3rd year of sponsoring my previous spouse is going to be
this December 2010.

Or should I wait until December comes? Then submit the application? Or i can start it right now?

note: I sponsored my 1st spouse too.

Relationships that are not eligible

You cannot be sponsored as a spouse, a common-law partner or a conjugal partner if:

* you are under 16 years of age
* you (or your sponsor) were married to someone else at the time of your marriage
* you have lived apart from your sponsor for at least one year and either you (or your sponsor) are the common-law or conjugal partner of another person
* your sponsor immigrated to Canada and, at the time they applied for permanent residence, you were a family member who should have been examined to see if you met immigration requirements, but you were not examined or
[size=10pt]* your sponsor previously sponsored another spouse, common-law partner or conjugal partner, and three years have not passed since that person became a permanent resident.[/size]

I need an Expert's advice on this one pls.
Thanks,

Pretty simple, you can't submit a sponsorship until 3 years from the date your previous spouse "landed"
