But the question remains that will it be implemented to newer cases only or would be applied retroactively? Including those people who are waiting for their passport return!
lol ....... that is exectly what i was thinking ...... worst part is that PR visa issued from ISB is nothing its jus entry visa ...... wen u land ...... and it is implemented .... they would not issue PR card at landing ...... they would give u some other documents ......... saying that u can stay for two years .......... so they can basically control it for those applicants who would be landing after law is approved and implemented ......... does not matter ur passport went for visa stamp ... depends how quickly they can implement. .............
Cases back home would take about 1 year for sure to process coz of US security measures imposed on Canada .... you have to have to go through security background checks before u can enter Canada..... so basically the sponsorship process might take lil less time ........as they will not verify ur marriage is genuine but security checks takes about 9 to 10 months to be done ...... thats the time people will be staying there ........ and total PR process would be about 3 years ......
Good thing they would not check ur marriage is genuine or not .......... they will let u go with that and would let u live at least thats the whole thing ........there are positives and negatives to it..... its not that its all bad ....... but citizenship would be prolonged .....bad for those who wanna get citizenship and work some where else ..... good for those who wanna live in Canada .......
