TaaDow--speaking of this subject, i know you can go visit your spouse in canada (im in the US) while awaiting cic approval on a spousal outland application. Im wondering if its legal to go to canada for 6 months while waiting and register my kids in school while i am there? Ive heard of people doing this but i wanted to know the complications of this on an application other than if you have to go for an interview i know you would have to go to your orignal country for it. Could you shed some light on this topic please?
