British Expats - Which application do I go for?

You may have quite few options available depending from your plans and length
of cohabitation. If you live together as common-law spouses or partners for at
least a year and can document it then she may sponsor you either while you are
both in UK or as soon as she returns with you to Canada. In the inland
sponsorship route you'll be able to obtain an open work authorization after
case is approved for inland processing. But current backlog of cases in Canada
doesn't make it a quick option - you may be processed faster when sponsored
while in UK. You may contact me directly for more details.
