To the best of my knowledge there is absolutely no way around it. The most you could be out of the country at one time is maybe 2 weeks. Border services has your passport on file when you leave Canada and when you return so it is easily checked by immigration. Not worth the risk in my opinion.

So they intentionally want us to stay apart until the process is completed? This is such a sick process.

I went through so much of trouble to get 6 months of work from India approved from my Employer and now this..

There is no other way to get around this and we can stay together?
It's hardly a sick process.

It was up to you to look at the rules. You can stay there with your spouse for that time and then submit the app when you return to Canada.

There is no way around the requirement for the PR sponsor to live in Canada.

I see that my wife, who is going to sponsor me, will be economically responsible for me in the first three years.

If I get a permanent job as an employee and we have kids in the first three years, would I be entitled to paid paternity leave (paid by the government and not by my wife)?

Paternity Leave is completely different from being on Welfare/Ontario Works, ODSP, OSAP Loans or any form of Government Assessment. Paternity leave is paid through EI (Employment Insurance) this is something that get's deducted from your pay cheque bi-weekly, monthly or whatever the case may be.

If it also matters, any type of tax benefit for income also doesn't count towards social assistance. My wife was getting some type of tax credit for about a year or two when we first dated and hasn't since, but we thought this may prevent her from being able to sponsor - NOT THE CASE!

Is it fine if I validated the form again after changing/editing my answer?
Yes that is fine, you are supposed to validate every time you change your answer

Hello, I'm almost ready to submit my application. But im really really confused with which item i should check on the checklist coz I get different answers. Please see the following photos. Should I check the circled box or not? Even though I answered NO to the question?

Hello,

I'm looking for some help with the required documents for the "Sponsor" section of the new application. I am sponsoring my wife whom is from China, we got married in Ontario, and she is currently living with me and my parents. We have no children so there are no dependents. We are also applying for PR inland.

Based on the new checklist, it states that "Application to Sponsor, Sponsorship Agreement and Undertaking (IMM 1344)" as the only document needed to be submitted, it does not ask for any other documents like the option C, or Notice of assessment, or any other forms to be filled out. Am i missing something or are these now omitted from the new application? I was looking at some older threads and people were including these in their applications when they mailed them.
