Hello,
I am a US citizen from California who has been in a relationship with a canadian citizen for a little over a year. After doing long distance, I decided to move to Victoria for the past summer to visit, but ended up enjoying it so much I stayed. I have been in canada for about 4 months now (I have gone over US/Canada border a few times in between to visit family). I want to know what my next step is to staying longer. Should I apply for a visitors visa extension come December based on "exploring relationship?" I would just like to feel like I belong here/show proof I am allowed to be here, instead of being questioned at the border.
I want to eventually work here legally, so what are my first steps to applying for a PR (if that is my next step?) I want to get that process going if it is going to be a long one!
Any words of advice what I should do? Any guidance would be much appreciated! Thank you
