Hi everyone,
I applied for my immigration alone (under skilled immigration / 38 professions / fast track program), though I am married and have a child also. The reasons for applying alone (without family) was to well settle in Canada before I am able to sponsor my family to Canada, as I thought it will take me 4 to 5 to reasonably settle in Canada. I have gotten provisional acceptance and am awaiting my medical examination soon, for which instructions have also been sent to me by Canadian authorities. In this regard, I would request you to please share your experiences / knowledge by responding to my following queries please. Just to re-iterate that my objective is to initiate family sponsorship process so that they come to Canada 4 to 5 months after I having landed into Canada.
1. Can I initiate family sponsorship process, after I get my immigration, while being in Pakistan? I want to submit all the documents while being in Pakistan, though, the case may actually take its time for processing by Canadian Authorities.
2. What could be the processing time for visa under family sponsorship?
3. Does visit visa, including multiple entry, take longer time for processing than that of family sponsorship based visa?
5. What is the duration for which visit visa is generally granted?
6. Would it be feasible to apply for visit visa first so that my family joins me there and then initiate the process of family sponsorship?
I would be grateful for members' responses.
Thanks.

hi friend,
You are lucky that you have the opportunity to take your family together with you and dont have to involve yourself in the waiting game.
- File the application together with your fmily.
- Once the application has been approved land together. Get the PR cards which will hardly take 1-2 weeks.
- If you want your family to stay with you, its fine, otherwise you can send them back.
- They can live outside canada for 3 years out of every 5 year period.
- Once you are established in canada, they can join you anytime
Please remember, after you land, the only way to bring your family to canada is to file sponsorship which takes 9-10 months on an average.

Sorry, i just ignore the fact that you have already applied and believe that you have added all the details of your spouse and child. If not, you cannot sponsor them at all. As mentioned in my last post. Islamabad average processing time is 9 months in additon to 32 days time for sponsorship approval. My opinion is to contact the visa office and ask them how can u add your family members at this stage.
