The daughter is likely a Canadian citizen. We would need to know more about her father to confirm (i.e. was he born in Canada).

Unfortunately there's really nothing the wife can do if her husband doesn't want to sponsor her for PR. It's his decision if he wants to submit the sponsorship application or not.

If the wife wants to come to Canada and her husband is not going to sponsor her, then unfortunately her only option is to investigate how she can come independently / on her own. If she can find an employer in Canada, then coming on a work permit might be one option. If she has a profession, she can also investigate if she qualifies to apply as an immigrant.

thank you for ur reply.Her husband is not born in Canada he came on skilled worker immigration and than got Citizenship but I know that her daughter is Canadian Citizen because on the CIC web site and some my friends told me that if one parent is Canadian Citizen the child born outside Canada is automatic Canadian Citizen.Only they need registered the child for citizenship Card

Yes - you're right. In this case, as long as the father became a citizen before his daughter was born - the daughter is automatically a citizen as well.

Unfortunately this still doesn't help the mother's situation.
