Can my wife Sponsor me?

[sheikhzaid]

The situation is a little complicated. So, my fiance was sponsored by her husband and received her PR in 2017, the guy divorced her and she will be getting the final paper this month. I will be marrying soon, will she be able to sponsor me after marriage or is there a wait time?

She needs to wait 5 years from the time she became a PR. So she will be able to sponsor you sometime in 2022.

3 years or 5 years? I read somewhere on the forum about 3 years. Although I am planning for independent express entry, points are not enough.

Can I get a work visa as her husband at least?

3 years for her first husband.

No - you cannot get a work visa as her husband.

What are my options in this case?

Apply independently, wait until 2022 or have her move to your country.
