Hi, I'm a British citizen living in London and married to a Canadian. She wants to return home this summer and I put my PR application into Missasauga at the start of this year. She's been accepted as a sponsor so that should all go through in a year or so.
But she needs to go back now - After trekking through the CIC website I applied for temporary residency visa and paid the $100, but the visa office in London rejected the application saying that British citizens do not need it. They were spectacularly unhelpful but said that I needed an eTA.
So, forum mavens, can I enter Canada on an eTA and be granted temporary residency when I arrive?
Thanks in advance
