20 years ago I came to Canada. Got my citizenship and went backhome Pakistan got married and all my kids born in Pakistan. I am Canadian citizen and all my kids are Canadian citizens but not my wife. My wife had 10 years multiple visa which is expiring in 2026. I brought my wife and two kids with me last week March 2025.
I have very good high level job in Pakistan which I don’t want to leave.

Can my wife get PR if I leave her with kids Canada. She is on visit visa and her kids are Canadian citizens. Is it necessary to live with my wife in Canada.

kindly guide me which one is best way. I don’t want to lose my job in backhome. Can I sponsor her from backhome?

You would have to prove that you are relocating to Canada in order to sponsor her so doesn’t seem like an option at the moment. You can’t leave your wife and kids permanently in Canada given that your wife is only a visitor so may be only guaranteed a 6 month visit. A visitor can’t live in Canada longterm as you appear to be suggesting is the plan.
