Hello again!
Here is a quick recap of our situation! I am canadian citizen, my husband is from Guatemala. He has a visitor visa valid until 2018. We just got married last may and are putting together our application to hand in soon.
Here is the new twist... we just found out that I am pregnant! Yay! Our little one is due in March. Here is our dilemma...
Option A
Our original plan was to apply outland as it is faster, and we were gonna live in Guatemala while waiting. We could still do this, but with the pregnancy it changes things a bit as I would like the baby to be born in Canada. But my husband might not have his PR by then. He could still come with his visitor visa, but not work.
Option B
We could also apply inland. At this point this option might be better for us as he could get the work permit within 4 months and we could start our life in Canada. I know it can take up to 2 years for the PR but were ok with that, as long as he can work. My question with this option is, if we do inland, does he have to be physically in Canada to do this? Because we are planning to stay in Guatemala until December, but file application officially in September...
Which option seems best in your opinions?
I hope I explained things right!
.. Thank you!!
