So, would you have any idea why an application to sponsor would be refused if none of the above excluding factors apply? I am a Canadian citizen who has demonstrated intent to return to Canada along with all the other documentation requested. We are just truly at a loss as to why they would...

Yes, thank you. That is what we thought, but we've been having nothing but trouble with our application and then today my MP's office was informed that I cannot sponsor my husband as I live in the United States. We sent in everything we could to demonstrate intent, (re-settlement plan, letters...

If you are a Canadian citizen, you do have the right to sponsor your spouse from outside Canada (eg the USA) but you MUST demonstrate "intent" to return to Canada permanently once PR is granted. Failure to do so will almost certainly result in a refusal...

I'm going to give you a bit more to think about. There is no issue in applying for the WHV while a PR app is in process. They are separate apps and the WHV visa will not be refused because you have a sponsorship app in process or because you are married to a Canadian. And IRCC is not going to...

You've given us a lot to think about, and definitely highlighted concerns we had. I figured my being married to a Canadian would be a huge red flag for any WHV and pretty much automatically disqualify me. It is confusing though because I've seen quite a few threads on here, some fairly recent...

Applying for a WHV is not proof of intent to return - it's proof that you are using whichever visa you can find to get yourself to Canada. That's not a good evidence of planning to move. You can certainly apply for a WHV but if you submit the spousal sponsorship first, you will likely not be...

My Canadian partner and I are currently gathering documents together to apply for a spousal visa. We live together in Europe, and I come from a visa-exempt country. We're hoping to apply for the spousal visa sometime next month. However my partner really misses Canada, and would like to move...

Yes we have been together for 4 years, my question is if I should declare myself as a Canadian citizen living outside of Canada

In order to qualify for common law, you need to live with your partner for at least 12 months continuously. It doesn't matter if it's outside of Canada. Have you and your common law partner been living together for at least a year? If yes (and you can prove it, of course), you qualify as common...

Just curious how this looks. These are my detailed outlines (minus the proofs obviously that I'll attach to back up said claims) for Proof of Income and Intent to Return parts. I just wanna make sure these seem good enough or satisfactory to those who have done this before. We are outland US to...

Could you keep living with her until September 2019? If so, you could apply as common-law. Also, the only way to apply as inland is if you are both in Canada (which could mean you could apply as common-law or get married, if she is able to get a tourist visa to come to Canada). Otherwise, even...

I was curious if anyone else had experience proving their Canadian citizen sponsor living outside Canada has intent to return to Canada. In hindsight I should have asked this long ago before submitting, but more of a curiosity thing. I'd also love some feedback on if my submitted evidence is...

As a Canadian citizen you can sponsor him from Nigeria but you have to prove intent to return by showing a job offer, lease agreement, enrollment in school, things like that. I lived with my husband about 6 months into process and then moved back and settled back to Canada and were reunited...

Ok, perfect. We have been living together since August, and have dated for 1 year in Guatemala (very young) and since 2017 here. We have photos, and all kinds of support for that. Are you aware of how much we need to show in connection to Guatemala? Does she need to show proof of intent to...

If you are not married and have not cohabited for 12 consecutive months (to qualify as common-law), then IRCC considers that you are just dating, and nothing more. Therefore, you need to plan based on that.

Hello! I am hoping to get some advice on my case. My girlfriend and I are both graduate students from Guatemala, currently under student visa status in the U.S, we met 8 years ago in Guatemala, and have dated for the last 2 years here in the states. We will both graduate from our masters this...

Outside is ok, as long as your sponsor can prove intent to return to Canada once PR is granted.

Hi, I just submitted additional document (proof of intent to return) on Sept 15. IRCC sent request on Aug 29. How long does it take to hear back from IRCC? DM or PPR Can you please share your experience? Thanks in advance! btw, VO is CPC Mississauga. Late May 2018 applicant. PA is from visa...

IRCC are getting MUCH stricter with the Canadian sponsors abroad and the "intent to return to Canada permanently" requirement. Unfortunately, this appears to be a case where the proof of intent failed at the last hurdle. Yes, I suspect that flagpoling would have been less of a risk.

Hi It doesn't really matter. IRCC reorganizes it all anyways.
