Hi all,

I'm a Canadian citizen living in Brazil, and am planning to get married soon to my brazilian girlfriend. After the marriage, I am moving back to Canada for work, and so would like to bring her with me and apply for PR status using the inland application.

What's the easiest way to get her to Canada so we can start the inland application?

We could apply for a tourist visa, but she doesn't have any strong ties to Brazil (No job, just graduated), and so I'm worried the application will be rejected. We could apply for the tourist visa before we get married (as if she's going to visit her family in Canada on vacations), or after we get married (specifying in the application that she's going to Canada specifically to start an Inland application). I can prove that I have money to support her during her stay in Canada, but I'm not sure if the Tourist visa can be used specifically to bring spouses to Canada.

Another option that I thought of was getting her to apply for a professional program in Canada, and then apply for a study visa.

As you can see I'm confused. What is the best/most common way to go? Any insights?

Thanks!

Hi
I have a question and I am hoping someone will have an answer. We got our PPR and we are waiting for the CEM to issue her Visa to Canada. I am going to accompany my wife from Manila to Toronto, my question is will I be allowed to go in with her, when she go through immigration to process her paper and get her PR? Thank you and God Bless

Hi
I would suggest that she should apply for the visitor visa before marriage...
If she has family living in canada and if she has good travel history...she will most prolly get the visit visa...

If she applies for visit visa after you guys get married... it might get rejected as the VO might think that she will stay in canada illegally after her visit visa expires... and since her husband is in canada and she has no strong ties with brazil she might not go back to brazil...

So she can apply for the visit visa.... then u guys can get married...
u can take her to Canada with u...apply for an extension and then start the inland process....

I did the same thing...
I applied for Visit visa...and got it.... got married and was with my husband for 6 months till my visit visa expired...
Well then i came back to India and did the outland process...

You can always meet an immigration lawyer for best advice...

Hope it helps..
take care

Question about Form IMM5490

I have a quick question on a form that I don't understand and cannot find clarification for...hoping someone here can enlighten me?

On Form IMM5490
Question 28. Check ‘‘Yes’’ or ‘‘No’’ to indicate if you are currently living with your sponsor. (I'm applying outland so the answer is NO.)
If you answer “No”, provide the date (year, month and day) when your sponsor returned to Canada.


I'm not living with him- I'm an American living in the States and hes a Canadian and has lived in Canada his entire life...so what does "returned to Canada" mean and what should I put here? Thank you very much!

Re: Extension of visa

scylla said:
Sure - you can leave Canada.

But as soon as you leave Canada, this will effectively cancel your visa extension (and implied status) and you will have to apply for a new visitor visa if you want to re-enter Canada.

The extension (and implied status) only applies as long as you remain in Canada.

My Young Professional Visa expires on November 30th and we will have sent the inland sponsorship/residency papers on approximately November 1st.
Will the sponsorship/residency application cancel my Young Professional visa and thus my right to work and travel outside of Canada?

In this case, write "Not Applicable" in the date area and on a separate sheet of paper explain the situation.

Hi,
Hi,

I am a PR working in Canada and my wife is in India at the moment.

She is planning to travel to US on visitor visa for 1 month. She cannot travel to Canada as she does not have any Canadian visa.

My query is:

Can I file her PR application from Canada (Spousal sponsorship, outbound New Delhi) while she is in US? Or, will she need to travel back to India, and then I will be able to file her PR application.

Let me know if this is legally allowed.

Thanks.

OK if nobody else is going to try and answer this, here's my understanding of the request.
If you are single, it's for you, your parents and your siblings.
If you are married, it's for you, your spouse and your children.

So, in your case, I would assume the second option.

Hi everyone,

im new here. i just want to know some things...

we are about to submit my sponsorship inland. Im holding a multiple entry visa to expire on may 2014. i arrived here last june 12 , 2013, then left foe the US after a few weeks then came back here on 1st July 2013. questions are:

1. Is it safe to say that my TRV will expire 6 months after July 1? or June 12? (BTW i was here also last Dec 2012 til 1st week of Jan for a holiday, does that include in the counting?)

2. should i apply for an extension of TRV separate from the sponsorship application?

3. when we submit the application for sponsorship. do we need to submit the medical together with it or wait for them to ask for it?

4. I am a Filipino national being sponsored by a Canadian Citizen (filipino also) and Im a Singapore PR working there before i came here. I know Im supposed to get a police clearance from SG also but they will only issue with a letter of appeal as per SG's policy. It was mentioned in the CIC website that they will give us a letter of appeal after they receive our application. Im worried that they will look for it and considered our application incomplete. Should we include the POLICE CLEARANCE APPLICATION for Singapore in our application just so they know we need to have their letter of appeal to get the clearance or just leave it to them to send me the appeal, will they be able to automatically know that i need one?

Here's what the cic website says:
For Non-Singapore Citizens

A COC (Certificate of Clearance) request letter along with a COC Appeal Application Form will be sent to you by the Immigration Office after reviewing the application. You are required to complete the COC Appeal Application Form, plus a COC Application Form that you may obtain from the SPF website (please see address above). Once you have completed the forms, provide the required supporting documents listed above, and submit in-person or by mail to the COC Office. Please note that the Certificate of Clearance (COC) will be mailed directly to the Canadian immigration office requesting the certificate.



Please help... thanks in advance!

You can file even though she is visiting the US.
