Spouse sponsorship
I have recently moved to Toronto but got married after receiving PR. I am due to return to the UK to complete a contract....
Is it possible for me to start the sponsorship process for my spouse whilst here and then return to complete my contract OR am I supposed to be here for the duration of the sponsorship process?
Any help would be most appreciated

Hi
!. Assuming you got married after you "landed" (a whole can of worms otherwise) as a PR you have to be resident in Canada to sponsor. A number of sponsor have found that out the hard way, when as PR they left Canada during the processing.

Many thanks for your response.... I gathered as much from the sponsorship application but was trying to avoid the 6mth wait...
