Hi
I am a canadian permanent currently living in the U.S. I lived in Canada for 2 years and moved to India for a year to take care of an ailing relative. Now currently in the U.S. I plan to move back to canada soon. My gay partner lives in India and I want to sponsor him. We have been in a relationship for almost 3 years.
Questions
1. Do I have to be in Canada in order to sponsor him? Can I do it from the U.S. or India?
2. How long does it take to get spousal visa?
3. His family is against his gay orientation and subject him to constant beatings and planning to get him married off to a woman. Is there a way in India to claim canadian asylum based on physical abuse?
Thanks
kumar
