Hi my spouse is applying for me via inland sponsorship. Everything seems ok up to the point where they want to see how my spouse can provide for me financially. In our case I make all the money. I own my own IT firm back in my country and I make a 6 figure salary doing so. We have two young...

Hi guys. Do i have to get a visitor extension if I am waiting on my PR? Doing the inland sponsorship.

Thanks for the great advise!

I have never had any type of permit before do you think that would be an issue? I have a UK passport and I enter as a visitor always. This is the first time actually going to apply for the OWP and PR.

Right on!

Ok cool. I'm in London Ontario. Wow you got your AOR fast!

Well I wasn't going to apply for the OWP but from what I am hearing is that it is the fastest way for me to obtain my SIN. Everyone is saying it takes about 4 months to receive the OWP. Is the OWP hard to get? Or does it have a high approval rate?

Wow thats so good! May I ask what province you are in? Im in Ontario

Maina when did you apply?

Are you from a visa exempt country as well?

I am going home for a visit with my wife and kids for two weeks in March. When we come back they usually give me 6 months. Would it be better to wait until we get back to apply? And also after I apply will I be able to go back and forth to Turks and Caicos? My business is there and I usually go...

I am from the Turks and Caicos Islands (British Overseas Territory Citizen) and if I am not in Canada I am there. Because I am a Turks and Caicos Islander we are allowed to have British Citizenship so I also have a UK passport (British Citizen) my Turks and Caicos Passport has expired so I was...

Thanks for all your help!

Mania you are awesome! I finally got the answer I was trying to find :) ok so my next question is how do I apply for a owp? Is it a separate form?

Mania would I be able to get a SIN once I have the work permit? The reason I need a SIN is because I am trying to establish credit in Canada and I have purchased vehicles here and everyone says it's better to finance to build credit. I own my own company back in Turks and Caicos Islands and I...

Thanks for the awesome advice! I really am looking forward to getting my SIN what would you say is the fastest way of achieving this? Would I have to wait the full year of the application or would it be quicker with the work permit ? Sorry if my questions are dumb :(

Hi there. No I do not intend on applying for a work permit. So under status I assume I choose "other" as opposed to visitor is that correct?

If I am applying as an inland spouse, and I entered Canada being from a visa exempt country and stayed the 1 year to fulfill the common law aspect (also got a visitor extention) on the generic application do i choose Canada as country of residence and then choose visitor under status?

Hi guys. I am at a crossroad trying to figure out whether or not to apply Inland or Outland. I used the CIC time estimate tool and both says a wait time of 12 months. Can someone please breakdown the step by step process for both Inland and Outland applications. BTW I am in Canada now but...

Thanks for the prompt response! I figured so :)
