Reapplying Spousal PR Status

[s.jagjit]

Me and my WIFE both recd the PR IN 2016 Under federal skilled worker .MY Wife was Principal applicant and i was co applicant(dependent) We did soft landing in 2016 and returned back to India.I have come back to Canada in 2019 and applied for 5 months old child PR. I will meet residency obligations and would remain in Canada .But my wife is not keen to return in 2019, hence her 2 yrs PR MANDATORY period would not be met.


I want to know what that the best course of action for retaining her PR? Can I apply for Spouse the PR from inside CANADA again under family sponsorship?


Under who can sponsor conditions there are three conditions which are confusing for me


1. Were sponsored by a spouse or partner and you became a permanent resident less than five years ago


2. Have already applied to sponsor your current spouse, partner or child and a decision on your application hasn’t been made yet


3. Were sponsored by a spouse or partner and you became a permanent resident less than five years ago




Your input required on the above

None of these rules apply to you. You can sponsor your wife at any time provided you meet the residency obligation. She would have to formally renounce her PR status first before you apply to sponsor her.

I'm assuming that you were out of Canada for less than three years between the time you landed and left in 2016 and the time you returned in 2019.

Have you not returned yet? When do you plan on returning and when did you first land?
