Wife sponsorship from india timelines ! need clarifications !

[Risabh_Canada]

I am soon going to be permanent resident of canada by december nd have a good job/income from a reputed mnc . I have been living in canada from past 2 years (On work permit ) .Once i become PR in dec , i intend to go back to india(New delhi) and get married in january .

From all you experience guys I just wanted to know what timelines(Medicals,aor, PPR etc) i can expect for sponsoring my wife PR before my wife joins me in canada . Will there be any hurdles in sponsoring as i have good income

Will there be any problem since i am sponsoring immediately after becoming PR of canada ?

Can i bring on visitor visa while application is in process ?

Waiting for the reply !!

The timeline for India would be based on the processing time for New Delhi a total of about a little over 16 months. 47 days for first stage, 15 months for second. Assuming the application has very little red flags at all.

Since you are landing as PR, be aware that you have to reside in Canada for the entire duration of your wife's PR application process. You can go visit her from time to time for a couple of weeks at a time.

As for getting visitor visa for your wife, once she gets married, it would be even more difficult if not next to impossible to get TRV due to your wife will now have stronger ties to Canada than to her country India. Your wife can apply for TRV and see. There is no harm in trying however just don't be surprised if the TRV application gets rejected.

My advice is if possible, have your wife apply for TRV before getting married. The odds of getting a TRV is greater with her being single than her being married to you.
