Respected Sir
can someone carry their spouse to Canada while she/he is still on working permit and what time it usually gets to get your spouse to canada after becoming PR. somebody told me that if you want to sponsor your spouse, you have to wait 5 years after getting PR. I’m unmarried yet.
Can someone spouse follow immediately with she/he been a student in canada. Do they do like Australia who allows the husband or wife to follow along if one of them is a student.
Sir, As of July 1, 2012, CIC has temporarily stopped accepting applications for the Federal Skilled Worker Program. Do you have an exact date of when they will start accepting applications again in early 2013 when proposed changes to FSWP selection criteria take effect? The reason is my husband and I qualify for the FSWP and would like to get the ball rolling in regard to the application, but as you know if we have certain checks done too soon they become obsolete.
Dear Sir,
My wife is greatly disturbed because the papers she filed to CIC been returned with the explaination that it forms have been changed.I want to know if this is the case.She resides in canada whereas I am in Ghana.
