Here what is written in my application status when I press IN PROCESS.
  1. We received your application for permanent residence on June 27, 2018.
  2. We started processing your application on December 6, 2018.
  3. We sent you medical instructions on November 6, 2018. To avoid delays, please provide us the information requested in the letter as soon as possible. Please consider delays in mail delivery before contacting us.

How much time will it take to get pr??

Hello everyone,

I'm new to this forum, so please be patient if i ask for something that has already been answered....

I'm sponsoring my wife who is a UK citizen. She travelled to Canada on an eTA and her last entry in to canda was first week of November.

I've already filled out the application for the sponsorship. It says to submit the application for sponsorship, PR and work permit together.

1. I found the application for permanent residence; but they seem to be the same forms as the sponsorship application. Do i need to fill them out again?

2. I also want to apply for her OWP; from reading some posts on this forum I have confirmed that i need to pay fees for both a.open work permit holder and b. work permit processing fees.

3.Do i have to apply for a Temprary resident visa for her ? she's allowed to stay up to 6 months and i'll have the application submitted before that time expires.

Any help with the answering these questions and/or the application process will be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Having her family there is a positive. No one can give you odds.
Thanks a lot. I understand no one can give the odds :D.
Just wanted to see if someone had a similar case so that I get some surety. But everyone's case is different in this beautiful world!

1. The sponsorship app IS the PR app. There isn't a separate app.

3. No, she doesn't need and can't even get a TRV.

Thank you very much.

So i just pay the fess for the sponsorship application, the PR fees, the work permit holder fees and the work permit processing fees along with the sponsorship application and the OWP application and we should be good? :)

Hi thank you guy's for responding to my 1st post and questions here

I have a general question now
P.s. this doesn't apply to me but for general information purposes I'll ask.

Question is
In the event a spouse sponsorship is refused based on the immigration officer believes that the marriage is not genuine and was only done for immigration status in Canada.
What can be done to further prove that such a marriage is genuine and the couple love each other?
Appeals are long and expensive
If the Canadian partner moves and lives with the foreign born spouse in the foreign spouse homeland country for a considerable amount of time and then re apply after a year or so.
Will that help convince immigration officer's that the marriage is in fact more genuine???

Hi Leon,

Excellent summary. I am applying as CAD citizen living abroad (UK) to sponsor my wife so we can all move back to Canada. Our son is Canadian citizen already. You mentioned that we need to show proof of intent to move to Canada. We have started to look for jobs there (we have jobs in London, UK), started discussing schools for our son and have extensive family there which can help us settle in (parents, brothers etc). What else can we show as proof?

Many thanks,
H

Hey guys, I had a question about the open work permit.
Is it just one form to submit with the PR package? (5710)? Or do I need to submit the change of status checklist with it? When looking at the checklist it's asking for most of the same information that would be included with my PR (marriage certificate, passport, status documents etc). So basically what do I need to do to apply for the OWP?

In your post you said for Outland applications that you’ll have to send it to Mississauga.
Is everyone has to send it to Mississauga whoever applies from Outland?
Thanks!
