I previously sponsored my spouse to come to Canada, but after they got the Permanent Residency Card they became afraid of the Economy and for what ever did not come here yet. In meantime I met someone again a foreign national that I fell in love with and would now like to sponsor this person. The guide says I do not qualify as sponsor because you can not sponsor someone if you had a previous sponsorship until the previous sponsor lives here for 3 years. Can I not have an exception to this rule, and sponsor the new spouse after divorcing the previous spouse. Please advise if there is any exception to this rule. Thanks.
