Re: Timeline For Spousal Sponsorship via London

It just means that you'd need to be prepared to leave Canada if your PR application was refused for any reason, but you don't need to show concrete plans to return after x amount of days. You are...

Re: Timeline For Spousal Sponsorship via London

I'd take that with a pinch of salt tbh, go with the official timelines and then be pleasantly surprised if it's quicker.



Means you can move and wait in Canada whilst you wait for PR. You won't...

Re: Timeline For Spousal Sponsorship via London

My guess (it really is just a guess though!) is that it won't be as long as the current processing times quoted, I think that time will come down. Fingers crossed anyway……..

Re: Timeline For Spousal Sponsorship via London

Just FYI, the first you hear may be Sponsor Approval, don't expect an email confirming receipt as it's possible you won't receive one. Hopefully you know it's got there safely via tracking though.

No, I didn't. I've always been referring to mckayne's situation. That may be very different from yours, I have no idea what yours is and wasn't commenting on yours in the slightest.

Not sure why you've made this about you. We were specifically replying to the user 'mckayne', who is currently living in the UK with his Canadian spouse, and was talking about going to Canada with...

Re: Timeline For Spousal Sponsorship via London

Just travelling with your spouse because you now want to live in Canada instead of waiting for COPR in the UK isn’t ‘essential’ IMO, there’s no need for either to travel in those circumstances and...

Re: Timeline For Spousal Sponsorship via London

Only if your spouse has 'essential' reasons to be travelling to Canada though, don't think the spouse of somebody just wanting to move under dual intent would come under that exemption personally.

No, you can't apply for PR at the border, it's a bit more involved than that! You would apply for her PR now from the UK, she may not have it in time for your travel, but as linked to above, dual...

Hi, and welcome to BE.

If you're not already living in Canada, then applying inland isn't recommended. For info on the reasons why, have a look at our amazing Wiki - Spousal Sponsorship-Canada :...

Doh - just re-read your post, couldn't understand the escalations mentioned or having to pay for them (something that's not possible for Canadian spousal visas).

I think you're maybe talking about...
