It totally has. There was an entire thread dedicated to the topic not too long ago. Essentially it boils down to everyone has some reason to want to get to Canada fast...and it would be IMPOSSIBLE for immigration to make those kind of judgment calls on a regular basis. As well, it would be a shame if people started having babies just to speed up their immigration process.lapula said:thank you for ur opinion....

i think my question would be asked by a lot of people in similar situation.
Congratulations on your daughter Mingus. My husband and I are in a similar situation...we've been waiting 3 years and have no idea when this nightmare will end!mingus said:i wish it did! We have been 2 years waiting for my husband's PR and I just gave birth to our daughter here in Canada a week ago yesterday. We still have no idea if we are any closer to being finished.
no they will not give him a TRV. They say he can not prove to them he will return at the end of his visa if his PR has not been granted.locolynn said:Congratulations on your daughter Mingus.

Is your husband at least able to visit?

Ugh we are in the same boat. I was lucky I was able to join my husband for my maternity leave from work. It's running out soon and still no visa. I have no idea what we are going to do.mingus said:no they will not give him a TRV. They say he can not prove to them he will return at the end of his visa if his PR has not been granted.
Of course it never hurts to ask, but I'm wondering if situations like the one above aren't just happy coincidinces. Is it possible she had already been approved internally and was inthe finally stages when the MP intervened?dan2010 said:IT WOULD NOT AFFECT THE SPEED OF YOUR APPLICATION IF YOU WON'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT.
I have read a case processed at Manila CIC. The case of the pregnant wife sponsor in canada has speed up the processing of the husband's PR application. What was done according to what I read is to contact an MP in the area to interfere and help present the case.
