Urgent - October 23 2012 - Lawyer required ?

[coolroby]

Hi All,

I am an Indian citizen and i am working in Toronto since March 2010. I am currently on work Permit and i am eligible for PR under CEC.

I am preparing to file PR under CEC. I have cleared IELTS with a score of 7 and have gathered required documentation like Work Experience, Police Clearance Certificate, Birth Certificate from Indian consulate here.

I got married few months back and my wife joined me here a month back. Currently she is on Dependent Visa.

Can i apply PR for both of us at the same time ? Or is there any duration limit (like staying for more than a year in Canada or so) which my wife needs to satify ?

In this case do i need to hire a lawyer ?

Could you please help me in this regards.

Thanks...

If you are married, then you are required to apply as a married applicant, with your wife as a dependent. Your marriage certificate is also a required document. Your wife will also have to supply copies of her birth certificate, police clearances, etc. if you want a lawyer, fine, but if you don't, it is not required - Just follow the directions...
