Hi All ,

I recently filed spousal sponsorship application for my husband(outland) and wanted to visit him , like after 6 months or so.
Is it possible to pay him a visit, just for a few weeks ?

Thanks for your help.

I'm a little confused based on the previous answers. It sounds to me like you are the sponsor, your husband is the applicant and you want to visit him in his country, correct? If that's the case then it's definitely no problem for you to visit him. But you mentioned that you planned to do this after about 6 months. What visa office are you dealing with?

@ariell: Thanks a lot. You understood my question correctly. It is CHC Islamabad and I have heard they take around 1 year for the whole process of sponsorship.

@wilson: What I meant was that could I visit my spouse in his home country, coz I am already living in Canada. Thanks anyways for your prompt reply.

Right. But it can be less. Currently Islamabad is processing applications in 7-14 months, so hopefully your husband's application will be processed on the shorter end of that. Good luck.

Go visit him, and document the visit. it will add evidence that you have a genuine marriage, which you will need to prove.

Please note that if the OP is a PR, the she has to remain in Canada for the processing of her spouses visa.
