Hi! I'm a single mom,has a daughter in Philippines.. I'm currently working as a live in in caregiver under work permit that ends my 24th month on october this year 2012... I got pregnant and I'm in my 14weeks now.I have a boyfriend who is an immigrant and willing to marry me..my questions are:
Is it necessary for us to get married before passing my application for open permit and permanent residency?
What's the best thing for me to do before passing my application?
Do I need to finish my 24th month 1st before applying maternity live? Coz my employer doesn't know about my situation yet.I'm afraid she might terminate me I she will find out.
Pls help!
Thank you so much for the reply.
Is the processing will take long?or it's still the same? I'm worried also if it will affect my daughter who's in Philippines that will be coming here if I hot my pr..I just hope it won't prolong the process just by getting married or changing my status..I want her to come here as soon as possible,if gods permits.

If he will sponsor you as a spouse category it will be faster and you can include your daughter as your dependant and she will be included in the application,the processing will take longer than those without dependant outside of Canada because they're going to do your daughter the same time as yours..
