Hello all,
I am in really need of your help to help me sort my situation and make a decision.
So, everything went well with my application and I have received an ITA that would expire in 2 months if I don't act on it. Now, I am faced with this weird situation below.
My current work visa expired (OPT) and I am preparing to leave the U.S in the next month or so and return back home.
In that regards, I have filled my application choosing residency for my country of origin, thinking that I would go back and start all the remaining ITA process and visa procedure over there.
However, with less time and other complications that could occurred moving back home to apply, I was wondering if I could do all that in the U.S. The problem my family and I are wondering if I could do everything here, medical exams, complete ITA application, COPR and Visa stamping without any problem.
Would the Canadian Visa Ofice request me to show any proof of residency in the U.S? having my work visa expired would be a problem? I know that the U.S and Canada are not related but I don't know what do they ask at the Visa stamping.
As anyone experienced the same situation? Do they required a proof to show that you are legal where you are applying? Any suggestions or ideas would really help me to decide what to do next. Thank you very much, I really appreciate any suggestions
