Spousal Sponsership

[manubobby]

Hi Guys,

I would like to ask a few questions if you dont mind answering. I applied for PR to canada under PNP Family Stream as my sister is living there back in 2011.. and got my passport back last week with the visa.. I am planning on flying to Canada next month and do my landing ... I am currently single and I have been in 7 year long relationship and intend on marrying her soon.. and was waiting to get my visa and I do not want to get married now as I will have to return the visa and get do the whole application with the spouse that will be another 6 to 8 months delay.. ive already waited for 20 months to get this far. So I want to do my landing next month, and then planning on coming back to India in June or July and get married, so that I will have my PR card by then, what I would like to know is what is the easiest way to take my wife along with me when I get back? I dont want her to stay back in India after marriage while me being in Canada.. Do you think I get a visit visa for her? If so what are the requirements and later on how do I sponsor her to become a permanent resident and what are the requirements for that ? we have email chats that go back to 2007 and enough photographs, so I am assuming that shouldnt be a problem. What I would like to know if she should apply for visitor visa prior to getting married or after we get married? The important thing here is that I would like the two of us to go back soon after the marriage .. I do know that she wont be able to work when is on visitor visa, but do you think she can get an open work permit when I apply for a spousal PR? also while being in Canada on visitor visa, would I be able to apply for outland spousal visa or is it mandatory that I have to apply inland? Please do reply.. looking forward to your response.. Cheers

Sponsor her for spouse visa


Do you think I get a visit visa for her?

If she apply it could be granted depending on the discretion of the visa office. She should establish with sufficient proof that she will return from Canada on expiry of the visa. More over the purpose of her visit is to live with her husband the request for visitor visa could be (?) denied. You can submit sponsorship application while she is in Canada on visitor visa. But keep in mind that she has to get out of Canada accordingly as per the time allowed at the arriving airport.


how do I sponsor her to become a permanent resident and what are the requirements for that ?
