Why do you need to restore your status?

Visa exempt - If you leave and are allowed to re-enter, I understand that you will reset your status.

There are no guarantees of entry (as you are not a PR/citizen).

I think you will find that legal immigration status is no longer a requirement for spouses (and common-law partners) of Canadian citizens and permanent residents in Canada.
This is for those who wish to apply for PR in the Spousal / Common Law class - inland application.

Others will no doubt comment.

sorry one last question;
this blows my mind so i dont have to keep extending my visitors visa until i apply for PR ??and even then?
but if i need from my countrys embassy a paper that states that i dont have criminal record for my PR application and to do so i have to show them a proof of a legal stay in country;do i just show marrige cerificate?thank you so much

As I said, "I think" you will need to check with others here who have done this and look at the inland application kit.

You could try this thread http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/recent-unread-topics/-t48144.0.html;topicseen

I was not required to provide proof of legal stay for my police certificate, no doubt others do.
What country are you referring to?

New member don't know how to post, i hope someone will get back to me. Please, I am a canadian, was working in Nigeria and my wife got pregnant. So we came to Canada for her to deliver our baby. She is on a TRV and it has expired, she have to go for an interview in Ghana for her PR. Will the immigration let her back in if she apply for restoration before leaving for Ghana? What can we do in this kind of situation? First of all, we applied for an extension before her visa got expired, but it took more than two months for the immigration to get back to us. And they refused her extension because we did upload her TRV which they never asked for. She came to Canada in july 16th 2010 and her six months was supposed to be Jan 16th 2011 but the immigration stated that the TRV expired Mar 02 2011 this information was given to us Mar 03 2011. She is breast feeding and our baby is just six months old. We don't know what to do, if she will go for this interview and apply for another visa in Nigeria. Please help us out on this issue.
Thanks a lot

Apply for a restoration of status. Send the documents asked for on the checklist. Attach a copy of their letter of refusal and a cover letter explaining the failure to attach a copy of the marked pages of her passport. Not familiar with the online attachments. You can try sending the package thru courier or express post so you can readily track that it was received. You have to send and make sure the app is received before the 90 days after her allowed stay is over.

Thanks for your help, but i want to know if she can go for her interview in Ghana and if she happens not to go will it affect her PR application.
Because she has been called for her PR interview already and it on the 30th of march. The immigration sent refusal letter on the 03 March.
