Trv For Canada While Pr In Progress?

[seanwg]

Hi,

Interesting question - my wife currently has a Canadian PR application in progress; I began the sponsorship process back in May. Who knows when its going to be finished; we are both living outside Canada and the entire application has been sent to Bufallo NY.

She currently holds a 1 year multi entry TRV; which we have gone and come back numerous times on now. It expires in a few days.

Does anyone here on Thaivisa have any experienced with this ? Will CIC Canada generally issue another one, while there is a PR application in progress? We are interested in going to Canada for christmas, and possibly in October.

My wife also holds a US B1/B2 visa which expiress in another year. CIC Canada couldn't deny her a TRV for Canada when she can visa the US could she???

See also Application for a Permanent Resident Card (PR Card), Guide, Overview:

To be eligible for a PR Card, you must:

* be a permanent resident of Canada;

* be physically present in Canada;

* not be under an effective removal order; and

* not be a Canadian citizen or a registered Indian under the Indian Act.

If you are outside Canada and you do not have a valid PR Card to return to Canada, you will need to obtain a travel document from a Canadian visa office. An application kit is available on-line. Once you are in Canada, you should apply for a PR Card.

and Leaving and re-entering Canada.

Sorry! Looking further in Family Class Immigration:

you can sponsor relatives or family members from abroad if they are:

* your spouse, common-law or conjugal partner 16 years of age or older;

Unfortunately, not sure if you have to wait for this to be processed (as per your original question) before you can travel to Canada again. Did your supporting documents for the pr application include passports? You should make sure that the pr application is not considered as abandoned if you make another TRV application.
