I am the same stage. Guys lets help each other in understanding and find the best route possible. Here is my take. After getting PR, I will get married and return to canada for a brief period and apply for spouse PR and I will go back to my country and return whenever required. Can I do this and what is the processing time for this and can i do this in first place, I mean, Can I leave outside canada after getting PR and sponsoring wife for PR. Will she be an inland applicant or outland applicant because I see there is difference in processing time. Guys please voice your opinions, specially the ones sailing in same boat. I can create a whats app group if necessary so that we can guide each other for the best possible solution. Btw I am looking for a potential match in Canada itself so that I dont have to go through sponsorship process, but never know whats in store in lifeDavid83 said:I didn't get married during my processing time. I'm thinking to get married now, but it's not easy as well. For her getting a visitor VISA isn't easy. So, chances are that the two of us will live apart until she gets her PR, unless she could get a visitor VISA somehow and stay with me in Canada to apply inland, which is a slim chance as I heard from others.
