Look at the population of India, I'm sure New Delhi has thousands of applications to process I don't understand how it is so easy for them to finish after 4-5 months while it's taking us 10 months????
I guess in New Delhi they have more workers working on the files

Hello Folks,
I hope all of you are doing well and enjoying the weekend. I have been following this discussion closely, cause I am in the same boat , boat of hope , but Inshallah all of us will get what we want soon. I have a question about the Visitor Visa.
Is it possible to invite your spouse as a visitor while you are filing for PR application? I called Canada Immigration and they told me both are different application and no interfere ? Is that true ? Or should people wait till they get PR instead ? Please advice me.

Thanks

but one of the big problem is that they have our passport in their hands for minimum of 5 weeks and they dont give it back unltill the response...so if the ppr comes and u have just 2 weeks to go or one months to go u dont have any passport to go...

The rules stills apply if you are sponsoring your spouse or not for the visit visa application. You have to prove that you will be returning to your country after the visit. Job, home, rent, and family ties are topics of concern. They might refuse the application because they will not believe that you would want to return to your country and leave your spouse be hide.

Greetings to all,
When filing my wife's application I paid the entire fee (applicat fee and landing fee) upfront based on the promise that this will speedup the process by a couple of months. Is this something to count on or is it just another false promise?
