Hi everyone.
This is my first post and I would really like some advice. I'm in the UK, I married a Canadian in 1997 and moved to Canada. He applied for permanent residency for me and I understand I needed to live in Canada for 5 years to receive it. I lived in canada from 1997 to December 2003 in which time I had to children. Before I could get a Canadian Passport, the marriage failed and I came back to the Uk with my children. Now after all these years my ex and I want to get married again and I want to move back to Canada. My question is would he have to apply for me as a sponsor again or would the 5 years I lived in Canada count? Any advice would be much appreciated thanks.
