moving back to Canada with non-Canadian girlfiend

05-05-2004, 08:08 AM

Hello,

I am a Canadian citizen currently living in Europe. Over a year ago I
met my current girlfriend who is not a Canadian citizen.

Recently I was offered a position in Toronto and would like to move
back with her. There is no need for her to work initially as I will
support her. Eventually, however, it is desired that she seek
employment in Canada.

Could you please outline what are our realistic options for moving
back together?

Many thanks,
Dave Sammut

sponsor her as a partner or spouse, she can either visit till she gets her
PR or wait to get it.
