Dear Sir/Ma'am,
I am an Italian citizen. I currently work in the Consulate General of Italy in Mumbai, India, and my Canadian partner, who works like me in India, is expecting a baby.
She plans to give birth in Canada (and therefore our baby will be considered born Canadian.)
Her and I would like to receive
information regarding the Visa options available to me, considering that we want to raise the baby together in Canada, without being separated in this moment, and that :
- I have already been to Canada and i have an ETA valid until 2017
-Her parents are disposed to provide shelter and financial support
- I am currently working as an employee at the Consulate General of Italy but i am disposed to leave my job to come and live in Canada with her.
- I have more than 10 thousand dollars of savings
- I have to give a two-month notice to leave my job and, in the future, look for another job in Canada
- My partner could be a sponsor, i guess, but she'll probably have to leave her current job (in India) to stay in Canada and quickly look for a new one
- We don't plan to get married soon
Also, if I am eligible to work:
how/from where can I apply and through which visa?
Given the situation that she is 3-month pregnant, I am the natural father and that when we return to Canada due to the pregnancy she'll probably be frictionally unemployed upon arrival ( for at least 12 months), what permanent residence/ working /nonworking visa options are open to me?
Could you please give us some guidance about the pros and cons of the options available to us ?
Thanking you
Davide
