Relocation outside Quebec after submitting spousal sponsorship application

['pwbhs]

Hello everyone,

I am currently a permanent resident living in Quebec and I would like to sponsor my wife ( currently out of the country) to become a PR.

However, I will be moving out of Quebec in a few months, but the sponsorship process could take a year.

Given that Quebec has different sponsorship rules, so will my current spousal sponsorship application follow the general federal process or Quebec's?

Thank you!

You should move out fast as processing time in Quebec is 34 months and in rest of canada it is 12 months

Thank you. But I want to apply as early as possible. Can I submit my application documents now and then move to Ontario in a month, in this way do I need to apply for the CSQ or other things that are according to Quebec rules?

If you're moving in a month, I'd really suggest moving first and then applying.

While it may be possible to apply and not get caught up in the quebec mess by indicating will settle in another province - why risk it?

Thank you for the advice! I'd settle in another province before applying.

No problem. It might be a more tricky question if the plan was to move in 3 or 4 or 6 months, but for one month, don't risk it. Good luck.
