Hello and thank you in advance for reading: here are my questions since I can’t properly find the answer.
I am a green card holder and I extended my visitor visa in order to do my pr with my common law.
10 nov : visitor visa expired
8 nov : applied for extension of visa visitor
10 dec: had to go back to USA in emergency to visit my mother who was very sick
3 Jan : came back to Canada
my questions are :
- while doing the extension I was on maintained status.
- I guess I lost it because I left the country (though my application is still pending)
- for the pr, they ask for a valid status in canada (document)
- what is my valid status since they let me come back on jan, does that mean i can stay up to 6 month again?
- how do i get a visitor record that proves my current status?
- do i need to restore my visitor status that expired last nov ?
I am not sure if I should just restore my visitor status that expired or am I now still able to stay up to 6 months again and how do I prove my current status.
Thank you in advance for your help, I read different cases here but of course each case is specific and I can’t seem to find the right solution to my situation.
