Is this situation 'sponsorable'?

Hi everyone,

I want to know if I can get sponsored by my girlfriend. I want to be able to work in Canada. this is our situation:

- We are both Spaniards.
- She is getting sponsored in Quebec, doing an LMIA at the moment. She is currently living and working there with a Work and Holiday visa.
- I'm in Spain at the moment.
- We are not married, but we've been together for almost 5 years. We don't mind getting married if that helps the situation.

Thank you very much!

No, your girlfriend cannot sponsor you unless she is a permanent resident or a citizen.

Ask in the temporary workers forum about spousal permits for work permit holders. You may or may not be eligible, but she cannot yet sponsor you for PR if she does not have PR.
