Next step is file transfer to local visa office, eligibility and background check. Expect something in few months from now. Whole process takes 12 months.
Spousal sponsorship

- Start date
Thanks !
Since I will be staying in Whitehorse - Yukon Territory, will it expedite the process considering that it is sparsely populated region ?
Hi Everybody,
I dont know my question is already asked before or not. I am totatly new in this form and thank you in advance.
I applied to "Spousal sponsorship- living in Canada" 3 months a ago (still processing) and I was wondering , do I have a chance to work? Actually I got an offer from one company to hire me but I dont know which steps I have to follow up, I mean paper works ?

Hi
I am new to this forum and been reading this post for the last couple of days.
So grateful for all the contribution, learnt quite bit!
I still have question regarding my situation though.
I am a Canadian for over 15 years and working for the past 10 years.
My fiance is Chinese citizen and holds H1B visa working in US.
We live very close to the borders and we got engaged last year after dating for over a year.
He has a multiple entry visitor visa up to 3 years. And we visit each other and stay over for weekends at each other's places.
We are looking at getting married in Feb and I plan to sponsor him to apply for the PR. Meanwhile waiting for the processing, he will still work at current job living in US. I do plan to apply for outland application ASAP after we get the certificate.
However the question is, after we officially get legally married, can he still come over to visit me on the weekends and go back to US to work on the weekdays? Should he tell the border agents that he is visiting his wife (he tells them he visits his fiance nowadays), I am worrying about misrepresentation if he doesn't tell the truth.
Does anyone have any good tip to share?
Thank you in advance!

Hi Everyone,
I am new to the forum and really happy with the way everyone helping each other and I posting this hoping I will get best help from here. I got married 4 months ago and my husband has his PR already and he is sponsoring me, I was living in the USA as student from 3.5 years and I moved to Canada on Jan 5th 2019 using my visitor visa and I am hoping to submit my PR and Open work permit application soon. I had few questions when I was filling out form 0008.
1. for current of residence I have mentioned as Canada as I am applying for inland PR, so for the From to Dates what should I enter? ( From Date = Jan 5th since I entered canada and To Date= is it visitor visa expiration date or 6 months from jan 5th?)
2. Date and place you last entered canada ( so this will be the lates entry date right? in my case Jan 5th 2019. I had visited for only 3 days in Nov 2018 so what should i write?)
3. And for current and Intended occupation what shouls i write? ( I used to work as Software developer in USA but not anymore since i moved to canada)

Hi there everyone!
I too am new to this forum.
Here is my situation. I am a South African who came to Canada in 2015 and studied for two year and applied for the post graduate work permit. Got denied that due to the school no longer meeting the requirements. I married my Canadian wife here in Feb of 2018 and we are now doing the spousal sponsorship. I am still currently on a Study permit and attending BCIT. The course load and sheer cost of the course is killing me, not to mention I only took it as a means to stay in Canada.
My questions is, my visa expires in November of 2019 and I would like to quit the school and get the $3500 or so back and apply for a change of visa to a visitor’s visa. I know I will not be able to study or work while on that but I am planning on applying for the spousal and the OWP so I would hope to get that within 4 months. I am not too sure on whether I am able to change my status after applying for the spousal or if I need to stay a student. I am also not too sure on how long that visitor’s visa would grant me should I get it.
Any input and help in the regard would be extremely appreciated!

What is the required response for the highest level of education question? I am to select just the option that indicates my highest level of education and type the amount of years for just that single level or am I to select all my previous education levels attained until the highest mentioning the number of years for each level?
Thank you for your assistance.
