Sponsoring Spouse from Qatar

[ahmer98]

Dear All,

I have got PR Card...Now I am about to leave for Qatar working for non-Canadian company. I have got few questions and I hope you guys will help me out with your precious knowledge...Suggestions are also welcome

1. Do I need to pay tax to Canadian Govt while I am out of country?

2. Can I sponsor my spouse while I am staying in Qatar through any lawyer? Considering that I will be paying taxes and can afford my family expenses and all

3. If I am paying taxes...will they count my days in Qatar for mandatory citizenship duration?

Regards,

Ahmer

I'll help with two...

2) Unfortunately not. As a PR you must be living in Canada to sponsor.

3) No - these days won't count towards either citizenship or retaining your PR.
