Hello there!
I meet my husband one year and a half before and we get married in Mexico 4 months ago, he came back to Canada and I stay in Mexico to arrange everything for me t go to Canada, I already have my visitor visa for 5 years for multiple visits, and I will go to Canada next week, we are so confuse about how to start the sponsorship process. Embarrassed
I definitely don't want to lie to the immigration officer, telling that I'm just in Canada for tourist purposes, but I'm sooooooooo afraid to say I coming to be with my husband and to start the sponsor process. They can denied me to enter if I say that isn't? Even If I explain that I have no intentions to stay longer than the 6 months or wherever the process duration. Other thing is, I will keep my job in Mexico because I can work Online (should I mention that??), Jesus I'm so paranoid, please if somebody can give me an advice I will appreciate a LOT.

Alita, you won't be lying if you don't say that you are going to apply for Sponsorship once you are in Canada, your main reason is to visit you husband, that's enough, but make sure you have supporting documents proving that you will go back home as soon as you stay expire that you won't be here illegal with your husband. Good luck!! :)

So, is safe to say I go to visit my husband rather than tourist?
Do I need an invitation letter from my huband?
Regards

do not mention the fact that you can work online...technically this is not legal since you're on Canadian soil.

A letter of invitation stating that he is going to cover all of your expenses while you are here (plus proof of his or your funds would be great). It would also be good to have traveller's insurance as well. Since you have a 5 year visa already you shouldn't have too much of a problem at all at the border!
