There's a sticky thread about traveling without a pr card, best to read through that.

Hi there, I havnt read all the comments as it would take me a month but I was just wondering does anyone know if its possible to sponsor your partner and then move to Canada while its in process? And also can they work while waiting to be sponsored?

1) Only if the sponsor is a Canadian Citizen. If they are PR only, then they must be residing in Canada at the time of sponsorship. A sponsored partner can move to Canada on a visitors visa whilst the application is in process.

2) They cannot work unless:
a) They are sponsored as an 'Inland' family class (spouse) applicant (which takes 6 months before sponsorship approval and a work permit is given) 'Outland is the recommended route'
or
b) They obtain a temporary work permit either via the IEC working holiday visa (if under 31) or else from an employer obtaining an LMO
I would suggest you start with the wiki: http://britishexpats.com/wiki/Quick_...an_Immigration

Quick question after "decision made" do you get a passport request (uk passport) or corp through the post ? We are already living in Canada.

If you're already in Canada you will very likely just get COPR in the post. PPR seems to be only for people living outside of Canada (we had PPR and are living in the UK).

Passport Request, though because my husband is a Brit, they just asked for a photocopy of every page of his passport. If you're not living in Canada they'll ask for that before they issue COPR.
