Hello everyone,
I am new here and I have some questions, I hope someone can help me:
I am a permanent resident and would like to sponsor my parents,,,I know to maintain my status I have to live in Canada 2 years of a 5 year period. So far, I have been here one year.
I would like to know if it is possible to start and send the application process,,,,I hear it takes around 45 months for processing in Canada,,,,so can I leave Canada after being here for 2 years have the application on process and then go back to my contry with my parents while the aprox 5 year waiting takes place and then come back to Canada???
I was planning to stay 2 years in Canada,,,,then leave for 6 and come back the last 2 years (then its 2- 5 year periods where I am 2 years here) and by then the sponsorship would almost be finished.
In the meantime I could prove I still have income although it would be foreign,,,,,,so my question is then,,,,,do I have to stay in Canada while the whole 5 to 7 years waiting takes place or is there anyway around it??? because I dont want to be seprarted from my parents for that long.
thank you!
