Hello everyone,
My name is Abby and I am married with three children. I am a Canadian Citizen. I met my husband while on Vacation in Colorado. My intent was never to stay in Colorado but I did to be with him. We have been together for 16 years. We had three children a 7yr old, a 10 year old and a 13 year old. My husband is a Mexican citizen that lives illegally in the USA and with the current US administration we decided that it would be best if we tried our luck and moved our family to Canada. We want to do everything legally and thought that it would be best if I moved to Canada with our kids while my husband stayed in the USA so I can apply to sponsor him to come to Canada. My question is if any of you know how we can have him come to Canada while we wait for the application to sponsor comes thru. Should he apply for a visitor visa. Will he be denied since I'm applying to sponsor him? What about an eTa? What about crossing the border as a refugee? We are just trying to make a future for our children. We are hard workers and luckily we have never relied of welfare or government assistance. We just want our family together my children and I miss him terribly. Any advise would be appreciated. TIA
