Visiting Canada after wedding
do you think it's possible for my future husband to get a visito's visa after we married in my home country next year? We're planning to file my sponsorship as my husband next year when i got back from my country. But since he also plan to come with me and stay for 4 weeks vacation here and to visit his brother in Calgary. Will it cause a problem? Will the immigration officer will not let my husband enter Canada? or is it better to apply now the visitor's visa while we're not married yet nor filed his application as my husband. Please help!

Re: Visiting Canada after wedding
It all depends from your future husband's nationality and his ties to home
country. In most cases it is highly unlikely to get visitor visa under such
circumstances.

Re: Visiting Canada after wedding
Mr Miller,
I wonder why they won't give the spouse a visitors VISA. The spouse will
eventually get the immigrant visa anyway.

Re: Visiting Canada after wedding
It is the law - visitor visa cannot be granted to a person who is a potential
immigrant and cannot demonstrate that s/he will return home after visit to
Canada. And fact that someone is married to a Canadian does not guarantee
itself at all that such person will be granted PR status, so your statement
"spouse will eventually get immigration visa anyway" is not true.

G'day, all! In a recent article, Me Me ([email protected]) said:

Maybe so, but there is a difference between being a legal immigrant and
a visitor, and therefore different rules apply. In my case, I got a visitor
visa, though I already had my immigration papers - I just couldn't activate
them at the time, as I arrived 2 weeks earlier than expected.
In your case though, they have valid concerns (though I'm sure, not
regarding your specific case) about people coming on visitor visas and
staying....and staying...and staying.
