    I am interested in sponsoring my fiance from the US into Canada. I don't quite know how to go about this, and do we need to get married beforehand, or is there another way? I have looked into sponsorship and permanent residence status. This looks like the total application time would be long, is there a general length of time that this tends to take in total? I'm worried we're going to have to be married for quite some time before we're able to live together.

    You can sponsor your spouse before getting married . Usually it doesn't take more than 6 months . You may have to provide all the proof for your relationship .

    What type of sponsorship does this fall under? Spouse still? we don't qualify for cohabitation.. and conjugal confused me by saying that it wasn't an option if you plan on getting married... so that leaves spouse. Proof is easy, that's not a problem.

    These are the requirements stated on govt site, but I have seen cases pending for 2/3 years and run into many problems with immigration. Really depends upon the visa officer who approves your spouse's visa. Some came here within 3/4 months and some took 3 years.
    For my spouse, they took like 4 years after going through everything they had to obstruct.
    So I suggest you better have your spouse here on any visa, get married here..Apply for status change. Then evenif immigration takes forever for approval, atleast your spouse will be here with you. :-)
    Hope this helps .. thanks,

    Hi Heatheranne,

    At present time, there is no fiance program that you can use for your purposes. You may sponsor your fiance as a conjugal partner or common-law spouse. Once married, you can also sponsor your spouse from abroad or from within Canada. You would have to collect all the necessary forms and supporting documents to satisfy immigration and sponsorship requirements. In addition, to prove your case, you are required to convince immigration authorities that your conjugal relationship or marriage is genuine. More info at http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/sponsor/spouse.asp

    If you wish to assess your situation or require my professional assistance please feel free to contact me at russellbilyk@gmail.com
