Hi there, I have so much question in mind that i cannot answer. First, I am a Head Supervisor in a fastfood chain for about 1 1/2 year now. I already passed my application for my wife and son last september 28,2011. So, I put my recent job in the application as a Head Supervisor and my details/info in the application. Also, I passed a Letter from Employer. But, right I like to change job because my boss is giving me hard time. Can i change job any day right now? I already find a new job but still wondering if i can change while my application is still on processing. Anyweiz, my application is still in Case Processing Center in Missisauga Ontario. And I am still waiting for their approval. Secondly, I'd like to go back from my country (Philippines) next March for my son's 2nd bday. Can i do that while my application is being processed? And I am praying that they can have their visa while im in the Philippines so that they come with me here in Canada when I go back here and start a new family together here in canada. Can you pls tell me how long will my application takes? Just give me some advice and tips. Thanks you so much for your help in advance!

are u a PR or a Canadian citizen? reason why i ask citizen can stay out of the country longer while having a spousal application being processed whereas PR's are limited to visits

Interesting.. I didn't know about limitations on staying outside canada if you have sponsored someone. Do you know how long he can stay in either cases?

I am a Permanent resident. Thanks for the info too. I didn't know that there are limitations too when you start sponsoring your wife and son. Because, honestly I'd like to go on vacation for 2 months with them while we are waiting for their visa. Thanks!. Do you have same situation?

Thanks so much for the info. Anyways, will the CIC check that i have left my recent job that I put in the application? Will it affect the application? or should I wait for their approval? And why is it only 1 month for the vacation? What if I extended for 5days (just an example). Thanks in advance..

As a PR while sponsoring u cannot be out of Canada while an application is in process you are allowed visits, visits are normally up to 1 mth in duration so if the find out you are living outside of Canada they can and will deny your application well as long as they don't deem that you are living outside Canda so you have to be reasonable maybe 2 mths can be considered but 6 mths is not considered a visit it is considered living outside Canada

I left my old job and at a new 1 will update once i get approval and my file is in my outland VO as i have also moved so need to update my info

I have heard of 1 case thru my VO KGN where CIC found out the sponsor changed jobs and ask for paystub, however maybe that was just a 1 off situation as we all know spousal sponsorship does not have income requirement but we are to show we can provide for our spouse without resorting to welfare

oh i see. so, i can leave my employer by next week and apply for my friends new job. (more salary though) lol...and regarding your post to newdelhi regarding the vacation. Can i go for 2 months vacation in my country when i go back? Will they check it? I assure that I am going back here in Canada because I applied for them right. So that we will be together here in canada.

well you can go for as long as you want but if the agent processing your file feels you are living outside Canada they can refuse your application so I will say you are taking a chance but if it indeed a visit go and have fun and congrats on the new job

oh..So, Canadian Embassy in Manila is the one who will inform me about my new job? And I need to tell them the details? I thought its the CIC in Missisauga? because they are the ones who assess it right.?

well since u are like 2 weeks away from being approved the chances of them getting that and linking it to ur file is very slim so thats why i say should u wish u update ur employment info once u get ur client ID or since u are a PR use ur UCI and let them know
