    Time to AOR

    AOR is usually 30-90 days. But that's the beginning of the process. Expect the whole process to be <12 months. Do your family members (spouse) need visas? Are your children citizens? (Are you a citizen by descent, i.e. born abroad of Canadian parents?) Overall you do not need an immigration...

    Marriage & Canadian Citizenship for Russian citizens

    Just to make minor addition: there is a sub-forum here that is mostly about sponsoring immediate family (spouses and dependent children), family sponsorship: https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/forums/family-class-sponsorship.5/ That's the best place to ask questions...

    Apply outland, go to Canada after

    Since you seemed so certain in your plans, we were all basically assuming that your spouse already either had TRV or from visa waiver country. (And you didn't mention despite the relevance) It's basically not true that getting a TRV refusal will cause problems to sponsor her. It probably is...

    Apply outland, go to Canada after

    Do look into the inland documentation and make sure it'll work for you. If you're not that far along with the application docs yet, you may find it easier switch that over. Having done the from-abroad with intent to return, it was time consuming. If calendar and family timing had been...

    Apply outland, go to Canada after

    BTW worth considering here - if the sponsor has more flexibility than applicant - could return to Canada a bit earlier and submit app to sponsor outland, would be another way to be rid of the intent to return rigamarole.

    Apply outland, go to Canada after

    -Job is very good, having even some searches for places to live / contacts with realtor etc good to, etc. If you're moving stuff, contacts with a moving company. You get the idea. It doesn't have to be all firmed up but planning / starting is what they look at. The job really helps and is...

    Apply outland, go to Canada after

    Thanks, armoured. I do have a few more details: we decided on a city, I already have a job (remote -- can be done from anywhere in the world). But nothing like an apartment rented yet, although we have already started looking at apartments and even houses -- I'll write a more detailed plan then...

    Apply outland, go to Canada after

    I think you'll want to include more detail about the intent to return. There've been many threads here about this. You'll want to show intent to settle in Canada together, permanently. This would generally mean concrete plans about where to live, work, and other key aspects (eg finances, etc). A...

    Apply outland, go to Canada after

    Thanks, armoured. Yes, I'm a born citizen, lived in Canada for around 30 years. I did see that intent on returning. My idea is to finish the application before returning to Canada. And as for the intent, I was going to give a copy of the plane tickets and AirBNB booking as well. (I will book...

    Apply outland, go to Canada after

    Won't be any problem doing that. The only reason your spouse would have to return to country of origin would be to have an interview with IRCC, which is a small percentage of total cases (basically if serious doubt about relationship). Plus they do some of these virtually anyway. Note, you as...

    Spousal sponsorship

    Incorrect. Canadian citizens can sponsor from abroad. They need to show intent to return to Canada, by presenting a brief plan to do so with some supporting evidence. PRs must sponsor from within Canada.

    Spousal sponsorship

    Thanks Thanks for your response armoured. When you say apply you mean, the submission of the application or do you mean till I receive AOR. What I mean is , I can go for 10-12 days of work/ vacation after I press submit on the application or would official submission be when I receive AOR?

    Spousal sponsorship

    As the sponsor, recommend you apply from within Canada if you reside in Canada. -if you're a PR, you MUST apply from within Canada. -if you're a citizen, they may end up asking for additional stuff (intent to return to Canada) if applying from abroad. (Applying from outside although resident in...

    Apply TRV while PFL is pending

    You are 'convinced' of a lot of things. And yet you do not seem to have listened much to anything anyone else has said here. You convinced yourself of certain things beforehand and - it seems to me - you are not open to listening to others, nor searching out information that might disagree with...

    Agreed 100%. IRCC is against Pakistani applicants. My sister-in-law applied for a visit visa twice and got rejected both times. The first time she applied through GC Key, and the second time through a new portal. Both times it was rejected. She is almost 52 years old and married woman and have...

    Apply TRV while PFL is pending

    I could be wrong on this but basically when you re-apply you give Canadian immigration a chance to find other reasons to deny your application. Its a totally new application. They can question the marriage, wedding list, etc. Being mixed background Muslim/Jewish marrying a Vietnamese woman, it...

    Apply TRV while PFL is pending

    This is a good point. (I still wouldn't rule out the TRV but it may depend on some other factors too, eg if spouse has had USA visas and the like) I'd also add: we don't see a lot of refusals on this basis (intent to return to Canada), and I don't recall any of them actually appealing. At...
