Arriving in Canada on tourist visa while waiting for Outland PR

[hanzi]

Hi guys, I'm Aussie and my Canadian common-law partner is sponsoring my Outland Family Class PR. We live in Australia and are moving to Quebec so the extra step of apply for a CSQ is slowing us down a bit.

Just wondering if anyone has entered Canada on a tourist visa (which I'm eligible for) while they wait to receive PR? We have a son, who has dual citizenship, and are eager to move ASAP.

Thanks in advance!

Oh thanks! And we don't need to change the process from Outland to Inland?

No. You do advise of change of address so the landing can be done in Canada.

There are lots of us on the forum who have done this. Search "dual intent" in here for examples. My big piece of advice is thar the non Canadian cannot say at the border that he/she is moving to Canada. He/she is visiting partner who is moving.
