Thanks Leon! I understand that´s it very hard to tell, but it doesn´t matter. Was just curious!

Thanks scylla and Msafari for nice and clear answers. I´m convinced it´s not according to the rules to sponsor when you don´t meet the RO. And we don´t plan to do that. In sweden at least there are plenty of rules that are not really implemented. So I´m anyhow curious if this might be a rule...

Is this correct? We recently talked to an immigration lawyer that claimed that it would be no problems for my partner to sponsor me even if she doesn´t meet her residence obligations (2 out of 5 years). At least as long as she has 1 year left before her PR expires and we are married. Does it...

Thanks a lot both Alurra and Leon!

One (hopefully) last question. If getting to Canada with less than two years left on the PR and without meeting the PRO, I suppose you will not be able to work during the time you wait for a new PR? I.e, if you have to wait six months after you PR expires to gain the complete 730 days, will...

Many thanks!

Thanks Alurra. I see about the 4 out of 6 years rule. But do all PR have to stay 4 out of 6 years in Canada to be able to apply for citizenship, or does it just apply for those landed after the new rule has been implemented?

Thanks both Leon and scylla. Maybe I should start another thread, but I try here. I Have two more questions: - The new 4 years out of 6 year-rule, does it apply for all PR? Or just the ones landed from now and on? - Approximately how long time does it take to get the citizenship after applying...

Thanks scylla and Msafiri, just wanted to be sure there´s no opportunities to get exceptions. Kind regards, Jonas

Hi, my common law partner and I currently live in Sweden but plan to settle in Canada. She has PR-status (sponsored by her parents) but hasn't lived in Canada yet. Soon three of her five years has passed. We would, if possible, like to stay one more year in Sweden, due to job situation. Is...

Thanks Rob for the clarification. Really appreciate it.

Many thanks MilesAway. I really appreciate the answers from you and everyone else here. Feels so much better now after visiting this forum and having these questions answered. Thanks a lot! So now it´s maybe just to fill in the application, hope for the best and look forward to a new exciting...

Thank you all for answers. I hoped to be able to go as a tourist until I got the PR, but maybe that´s a bad idea? (As swedish citizen you can stay for 6 months without any visa.) Is it better to apply for a visitors visa already in Sweden? I don´t really get how I should be able to stay there...

Thanks a lot both MilesAway and Rob. Yes, she was sponsored as dependent under her parents. Another question raised in my mind: If I would go on tourist visa (during the whole application process) and make an outland application, then I would need to quit my job in Sweden. Do you know if that...

MilesAway: We were a couple but we didn´t live together. Does it matter?

That was very helpful, thanks a lot rhcohen, I really appreciate the answers. I will most likely go on a tourist visa and make an outland application. Take one year of holiday, work in a swedish company etc or with some hobby projects that I never had time for before. Rob: - It should be ok I...

Thanks a lot both Hasan and Graihn, Just to be sure: Graihn, you mean that my partner needs to reside in Canada for me to apply at all I guess. 1. But is it really ok if I go to Canada, and apply outland? 2. How do I manage to keep some valid visa to be in Canada during the process of my PR...

Hi, my common law partner (for more than two years) has a PR card for Canada. We currently live in Sweden but plan to settle in Canada. She will sponsor me and I will apply for my PR inside Canada. I´m not really sure about the rules during the application process period and would really...

Thank you very much Msafiri, the rules seems like I expected. Next step for me might be to figure out if I can settle in Canada later without being sponsored, on entrepreneur visa or as skilled labour. Or if we go now, when my partner still can sponsor me, then I also need to figure out the...

Hi, I have a company in sweden and I´m thinking about starting a branch in Canada. What´s the requirements for doing that and to get a PR? I will not meet the investor program requirements. Which turnover or annual result does the company need to have etc? Thanks, Jonas
