Okay, all... We need some advice... Here's the deal:
There are new forms for Spousal Sponsorship. I've heard rumor that there is not a speed benefit to Outland anymore--both options now take a year to process. This might just be an unfounded rumor... I don't know, but it is very important in our case to know.
When we originally decided to do Outland, the entire processing time for it was showing in reality as only slightly longer than getting a OWP with Inland (4 months). So we decided why not have it take juuust a little longer, and get the whole thing done. Makes sense, right?
If things have changed now and Outland is going to take a year, we are going to need to do Inland--because now we're pregnant, and due on June 16 2017. SO, we really need my husband to be working by then, regardless of how long the entire process will end up taking.
I also wonder if it makes a difference whether you are using the old or new package. Would there still be a speed benefit if we use the old package and do Outland?
I know Americans should really never do Inland, but in our scenario, do you think it's a better option, so my husband can get a OWP in 4 months and have an income? Seriously... I don't particularly want to give birth and then have to go to work at friggin' Tim Horton's the next day.
Please help :-\
