Hi, I'm from Portugal.
Me and my girlfriend had a long distance relationship, I had come to visit her in Canada a couple of time, and it was being really hard for us to spend so much time apart, so when I came to visit in January we decided to get married and sent in our application for sponsorship in Canada class, our relationship is genuine.
Now it took us a while to gather all the info and papers and get my medical exams done so we only sent the application in May.
My visitor visa expired on July 18th and I still have not heard back from the CIC.
I was wondering how long my application would take and if there is any problem with me staying here in Canada while my application is being processed.
