Questions about sponsoring spouse in Outland application

Hello all and thanks in advance for your advice.

I'm currently filling out the documents with my wife to sponsor her. We currently live together in Canada and she is working here full time at a company under an open work permit.

We know that the outland application has the advantage of being faster and we may have the ability to leave the country if needed. Also, she still has more than a year left on the permit so the open work permit on the inland application is not needed. What we don't understand is how to actually apply for outland.

At what point does the application become inland vs outland?

Under "Class of application" on the IMM 5533, do we simply check "I am currently living outside of Canada, and I am applying under the family class"? Does it matter that our joint address is in Canada?

Any advice is greatly appreciated!

She lives here, so she can't choose "living outside of Canada". She needs to choose the next option for those living in Canada applying under the Family Class.
 
Hello everyone, I have a question regarding mailing documents for sponsoring my wife. I am Canadian PR and I live in Canada. My wife is living in Serbia, and I am confused about where should I send the application package? It makes me confuse next on the CIC website, it says ''Application for spouses, common-law partners or conjugal partners outside Canada and all dependent child sponsorship: CPC Sydney PO Box 9500 Sydney, NS B1P 0H5 NOTE: Choose this option if your spouse or common low partner is living in Canada with you, but you have chosen to use the overseas sponsorship''. My problem is that I don't have an option if she doesn't live in Canada for out land applicants. If someone could help me, thanks!
