Submit the application with any proof of the marriage you have and include a letter saying you are waiting on the marriage license from the provincial Vital Statistics office. If you have written correspondence about the delay, include copies of that with your application.

I am a Canadian permanent resident, my spouse came to Canada and we got married , now I am in Africa (Cotonu ) to do another wedding so I can submit the two marriage certificate to the Canadian government to sponsor my spouse . cos he has a Canada visitor visa My question is , can we both come back to canada on the same day on same flight? And can I declear to the immigration at the port of entry we are both coming together from Africa and he will be staying together in my apartment for a couple of days before he travel back to Africa, or he should book a hotel?
You can travel together.
For the Port of Entry, your husband should bring proof of his return flight. If you want to really be safe he bring proof of property he owns/leases in Benin as well as proof of employment. Without proof of a return flight he may be denied entry.
My husband is Canadian. He came allover to Pakistan to marry me Dec 2014. He started my PR immigration spousal sponsorship in 2015. He is kind of short tempered man & influenced by people gossips which result our unwanted fights. Time passes… 2017 Feb finally my PR immigration got matured & i have been called for interview which my husband hides from me based on condition applied on me to sign per-neptuial agreement for entry in Canada & i was not aware since our lawyer first email to my husband residing in Canada. When things got worse shape when i got email from lawyer stating that your PR immigration sponsorship has been withdrawal upon request of your husband with CIC confirmation letter attached…. Then my family got involved & things turned better again BUT my sponsorship was cancelled. Anyhow, our relation patch up again but never to less new condition applied for he force me to pay all Canadian lawyer fees to re-apply PR immigration which i agreed to safe my marriage. Now i paid from Pakistan in $ all lawyer fees for my case to restart from the beginning. But lawyer email us filled forms to review the details if its okay for both of us…. One hidden secret disclosed….. He was married before which was never shared with me before neither this form information. Now since that day he is not talking to me at all though i am quite till date & had not discuss anything with him. But today he text me with saying to END this relation with the reason that he lost his feeling for me & can’t wait for long for me because of this PR immigration. What is my fault here? What should i do? Will Canadian will help me in this case?j I need true advise. One Canadian Citizen just cant play with my life because Pakistan cant get easy Visa even though i am legal wedded wife of him……
This is not your fault.
There is nothing you can do if he withdraws the sponsorship application or breaks up with you.
The law has since been changed to prevent things like this from happening. Unfortunately for you, it was changed right around when you lost your PR.
I’m 19 years old now and I have a boyfriend from the Philippines we’ve been in a relationship way back 2012 but we broke last 2014 but last year we started talking again and decided ta again decided to get marry next year btw Im PR here in BC, both our parents are okay with,. am I able to bring him here?
He needs to apply for a visitor visa. You cannot sponsor him unless you are married or have been living common law for at least a year.
my bf is still married in Philippines but separated already and his currently in Jeddah working, he wants to convert in Muslim so the 2 of us can get married since annulment in Philippines is taking for ever. Once we get married can I sponsor him from Jeddah to bring him to Canada?
If you marry after his marriage has been annuled, you will be able to sponsor him for permanent residence. However, if you marry while he is still married, Canada does not care what religion he is (or both of you are). Bigamy/polygamy is illegal in Canada and Canada does not recognize those marriages, even if they may be legal in Saudi Arabia.
My boyfriend lives in Poland. If he comes to Canada and we get married can he travel back to Poland to work while waiting for PR ? (he works for advertising company which doesn’t require him to be there all the time – just 3 or 4 times a year for a project).
Yes, absolutely. This is actally what the Canadian government wants you to do.
But, in this case, you’ll want to apply for sponsorship once he’s left, as it’s officially an “outland” application this way, so he needs to be outside of the country.
That is, unless you meant travel back for work for brief periods. In that case you should go with him, as sponsored spouses on inland applications should have their sponsors with them when they travel outside of Canada.
I am a Canadian citizen who wants to marry an international student currently studying in Canada. What do I need to do to start the sponsorship process?
First, you need to marry them.
Next, you need to download the application off of IRCC’s website and gather all the documentation you need.
Then you mail that application to IRCC, along with the work or study permit application if applicable.
Then you wait 12 months. Normally. But since there’s a pandemic, who knows how long it will take.
I am a permanent resident in Canada and my boyfriend is currently an Indian citizen. Is it possible if my boyfriend comes to Canada on visit visa and I marry him in Canada I can sponsor him
Yes, that is how it works.
what documents do I need to apply for a permanent residence through spousal sponsorship
It’s not a short list, which is why we are just linking to the article instead of repeating the information here.
I am here now in canada and already waiting for permanent residency. I was sponsored by my mother and my status in application is single, but on country ive been im married. How can i sponsor my husband if im married before but my application is single.
That is a problem. You were supposed to declare that you were married on the sponsorship application. You should contact a lawyer or a Regulated Canadian Immigration Consultant (RCIC) to see if you have any options.
Of course, if the marriage certificate is dated after the sponsorship application was submitted, there is no problem.
