Hello, My wife and I are about to begin the sponsorship process. She is going to sponsor me to come live in Canada (Toronto,ON). I am from the US. I was reading the CIC website today and it states "First, your family member who is a citizen or permanent resident of Canada must apply to be a...

Hi there, About a month ago my wife and I got married in Toronto. She is a Canadian and I am from the US. Before the wedding I stayed in Canada for 6 months to help plan the wedding. A few weeks after our wedding we decided to travel to the states to visit my family for awhile before starting...

Would it help if we start to PR process before trying to re-enter Canada? In the states I was working on movie sets as a set dresser so when I came here I just stopped taking jobs its not like I had an employer to go back to also because I worked like this I never had a place of my own so I'm...

Thank you guys so much for the answers! I really appreciate it. Is there anything else you can think of that we should know?

Thank you all for the quick responses.... So if we wanted to spend the next year together planning a wedding instead of getting married at the city hall would they grant me a visitor's record if we have proof that she would be supporting me and I wouldn't be working here? Thanks again!
