I pray everybody got together with their spouses soon.......InshaAllah
I have applied for my wife on 26 November 2012 and we are expecting our first baby in January 2013. I am planning to go on parental leave. I got a question: If I claim EI (parental leave) Will it effect my case at all.......
Please advise.

If you get approved before you apply for EI, then you should be okay. Just make sure you don't make a mistake of telling CHC-Islamabad that you are on EI or visiting your wife, otherwise you will be in there for a long long wait. Also, if you are Canadian Citizen then make sure you apply for your child's passport right away. If you are still a permanent resident, then you will need to inform CHC-Islamabad and have your baby added to the application. Also look into EI guidelines, as if you can leave the country while you are on paternity leave/ EI.
