I See ... Well I guess its just the wait now , Divorse wont be final till August .... I have been back in canada now only two weeks After spending 30 days with him , And it seems like a lifetime :'( But I have forgotten to mention that my recent divorse is from a man from America , which I Was sponering , He was here 4 years , will that effect me from sponsering the man I was meant to be with in the first place to come to Canada ?

Also He left without me knowing !
CIC will definitely take a closer look at this relationship if you previously sponsored.

It won't effect you being approved as a sponsor as long as you don't have an outstanding loan to the government for his fees.

Just my personal opinion, but CIC will be very interested in why you're sponsoring another spouse from overseas and why your first marriage ended so quickly.

Easy answer to that question!!!! I FELL IN LOVE WITH THE RIGHT ONE , Thats the truth! Needless to say that the former husband was 15 years younger then me .. What I thought was love was in fact a boy needing to be taken care of , I WAS MORE LIKE A MOTHER THEN A WIFE :-[

I agree with amikety. CIC will most definitely take a closer look this time because of that.

You stated that you have been involved with the current man since 2011; you also stated that you sponsored the previous one 4 years ago, would that have been in 2009? CIC will probably be interested in that timeline. 2 years is a very short time to go from your husband, who you went through all the trouble and expense of sponsoring, to a different man. You will need to provide a lot of evidence on the genuineness of your current relationship.

OK ... So I fell in love with someone else , yes while still married! It happens , I Was open and honest about It , Even though I diddnt know my former husband was cheating on me all along ..... I guess the age difference was just too much for the both of us and in the 4 years he was here I think we both grew up and realized we were with the wrong people.

Yes, it happens. I'm not judging your relationship, I'm not saying that it isn't genuine or that what you've said isn't true. I'm just trying to explain that it is a red flag for CIC when a person sponsors a spouse, and then 4 years later, sponsors a second spouse. And you need to be prepared to deal with what that will mean in terms of your application.

Your story sounds completely logical to me. However, you'll need to convince CIC of this and their job is to ask questions and make judgments.

If you're willing to move to Libya, that may help prove the relationship is genuine (although not always). Are you a citizen or PR?

Then you can live in Libya and sponsor him if that appeals to you.

Yes, that is an option. CIC usually views living together favorably, although it doesn't guarantee approval. Of course, it's a decision you have to make after reviewing all your options, including employment and family in Canada.

All of my family are in Canada , 4 brothers and a sister and my mom, Which are willing to help in any way they can. As for a job well If I were to leave and come bak a job would not be hard to find, and as My fiancee is very well educated in a number of fields , a job would not be hard for him to find either

Well think long and hard about your options. Maybe get some more opinions. There is no "right" answer only what you feel is best. Give it some time. Talk with your family and husband. Only you can decide what is your best option.

I would also consider Libya versus Canada and which country would be best for you overall. I only know what the news tells us about Libya, nothing firsthand, so I can't comment if it it's a good place to live or not.
