Canadian married to Syrian

[Amer23]

Hey All,

I recently married a Syrian citizen in Lebanon and wish to bring her back with me to Canada. I am concerned with her well-being and saftey considering she is a war zone and is married to me; a dual, American-Canadian citizen. I am frantically looking for the best way for her to return with me. I am currently in Lebanon, whereas she is in Syria. I have left my family, friends and life back in Canada in order to stay as close as I can to my wife.

I fully understand the Canadian spousal sponsorship process; however, according to what I understand, it can take up to a full-year. I am very concerned with my wife's well-being and cannot expose her to that sort of vulnerability for up to a year.

Any thoughts on what I can do?

The only way to get her to Canada before PR sponsorship is completely processed is for her to apply for a Visitor visa (TRV). However, the chances of this being granted are slim to none, given the totality of your circumstances. No harm in trying however.
