Hi everyone,
I need advice on the different options that I have with regards to immigrating/working in Canada. I've been reading through the CIC website for a while now, but it's difficult to keep track of all the procedures and what I may or may not be eligible for. My situation is as follows:
- I'm a Dutch citizen, 28 male, currently unemployed, currently residing in the Netherlands.
- I married my Canadian girlfriend last month in Canada.
- My wife, 23, is a fulltime master's student and works parttime in Canada.
- I was in Canada on a Working Holiday Visa for the past year, which expired 3 days ago.
So, drawing on the experiences of people on this forum, what would be the most efficient way to proceed? Obviously, my wife and I are planning on applying for spousal sponsorship. What we're trying to figure out is how to keep our long distance period as short as possible, and the fastest route towards a work permit for me.
Any help/advice is much appreciated, thanks!
