Hey guys,
My sponsor (inland, commonlaw) previously sponsored her soon-to-be ex-husband. Her responsibility for him has ended, and at the time of our inland sponsorship application last year was free to sponsor me. My part of the app should be fine (American, no criminal history etc), but I'm curious about the sponsorship side of it. My spouse and I moved in together after knowing each other a short time--I visited for a week, and by the end of that visit, we had decided to move-in! Funny how life works when you meet 'the one'. We are still together 2.5 years later, have a son and a genuine relationship. I believe that objective and documentary evidence will lead us to being approved, but since CIC is making the decision..... I wonder if our application will be processed more slowly because a) my spouse previously sponsored someone and b) I walked away from a cushy life in New York (not sure if that comes across in my app, but it's absolutely true, and people have called me crazy for leaving NY in favour of Saskatchewan), and c) because she is still technically married to her ex (i.e. the one she successfully sponsored before me)--note, as some of you know, divorces can take a long time.
Anyway, folks... what do you think? Ponga! It's going to take a while, isn't it? Anyone have any previous experience second-time sponsoring?
