No. It only applies for applications with a lock-in date of October 26, 2012 or later. If you have already landed you are not affected by it.

No, it will not. He's got his PR, all you can do now is move on.

what about the 2years that said we must be together befor he can keep the pr
That new law only applies to applications received by CIC on or after October 26, 2012

So it clearly does not apply if he landed before October 26, 2012.

There is something about the new 2 year rule that I find troubling and there are potential risks for domestic violence/abuse. Sometimes the kinds of questions asked by sponsors scare me. e.g. "what about the 2years that said we must be together befor he can keep the pr"... huh? ??? :eek: I can't help but wonder why anyone would want to be with someone who may be there because they "must be" for 2 years?

Read her short story a few posts prior (if you haven't) . . . sounds like she wants to 'revoke' PR that her "ex" now has. Not gonna happen!

Yeah, I saw that ... that's why to me the new rule is just creating more problems. A scorned lover can now blame an alrready doomed relationship on "marriage of convenience".
