Hello everybody,
I'm looking for someone who has been through the same situation or something similar who can help us. First, I'd like to give you some more background information about our story so you get a better panorama of our situation.
I am a 24 year old Mexican woman inlove with my amazing boyfriend. He is 32 years old and Canadian citizen. My boyfriend and I have been together as a couple for 2 years, 3 months (living away). He's been to Mexico with me, but because of his job, he hasn't come back in a year. However, my job is more flexible and has allowed me to go to Canada more. I've been there three times. The first time I was there was in August 2013 to his brother's wedding. I stayed 5 days. My 2nd time was in Novemeber 2013, I stayed only 3 weeks, because I got a "Visitor Record" on my passport where the governement was asking me to leave within that time. And I did. 3rd time was in Decemeber 2013, and once again, I got a "Visitor Record" allowing me stay 4 weeks and I stayed 4 weeks. (By the way, I received my "Visitor records" because I always was honest about my realtionship and intentions: visiting my boyfriend to spend quality time)
We really really want to be together more than 3 weeks, so we've been reading and we've found out about "Extending your visit" application. However, in order to apply for that, it needs to be prior 30 before your status expires because that's the amount of time that the process takes online. But as you can see, the government never allows me to be there more than 4 weeks, so I can't really apply for that. Is there anything else we can do?
We've also read that when you apply for "Extending your visa" you get something called "Implied status" which means you can stay In Canada while they analize the situation and give you an answer. So my question is: if I could apply on time to extend my visit, Can I still get an "Implied status" eventhough I have been issued a "Visitor record" stapled on my passport asking me to leave the country certain date?
I really appreciate you take the time to read and to give me a piece of advice. I'd really appreciate it. If you need more background information,let me know. We're open to hear your experience and learn more.
