Hi,
I am a canadian PR and sponsoring my wife outside canada. When filling the for IMM008 Generic on page 2 they are asking about Details of Family Members.

1 - As she is the only one applying as principal applicant So Does she need to include me in their as Spouse ?
2 - If yes then the question Will accompany you to canada will be No or Yes? As i am already in canada.

As the instructions said "You must provide the following details about each of your family members, whether they will be accompanying you to Canada or not. You must include your spouse or common law partner if applicable, and all of your dependent children , and those of your spouse or common law partner, who are not already permanent residents or citizen of canada"

Thanks,

You are a permanent resident so you don't need to be on it. You are the one sponsoring her.

I got a bit confused with that question at first too. Because you are her spouse the question is not applicable unless she has children, then you need to put there details :)

Hi folks,

1. If my wife is not accompanying me this time then can i sponsor her later on so that she can migrate ?
2. If yes then how much time it will take for her to get the visa if i sponsor her ? (My visa office will be Singapore)
3. Can she visit Canada with any other visa before she migrates ?

Please suggest urgently.
