Transfer Outland spousal sponsorship ti inland

[princekarim]

Hello everybody

I have sponsorship questions if someone can help me I will be grateful
I am Moroccan of Canadian nationality currently living in Morocco
I would like to sponsor my 2 month pregnant wife.
is it possible to apply from Morocco and after 4 months on request a tourist visa for my wife?
If we ever go to Canada with a tourist visa after the sponsorship application(Outland), is it possible to transfer the sponsorship application(inland) in Canada?
If not, do I have to make another sponsorship application in Canada?

Thank you

You can do that, but a TRV is not guaranteed if a spouse is in the process of being sponsored for PR. It's possible, but hard to prove that she will be a temporary resident as they will know she is trying to immigrate.

You cannot transfer an application to inland in the way you are describing, but she can live in Canada and continue with the Outland application either way (if she gets the TRV approval of course).

Just to confirm, you can start the sponsorship from Morocco only if you are a Canadian citizen.

If your wife get TRV to travel to Canada, in most proviences, there is no healthcare coverage for a spouse with a visitor status.
You need to plan to pay for her child birth. And with current processing time, (delay with COVID), you may not even get AOR (Acknowledgement of Receipt)
Well, it all comes down to if she will get the TRV after all.

Thanks for you reply,
So is it better if we try to get a tourist visa without making a sponsorship request after we will apply for a sponsorship in Canada?
(but she can live in Canada and continue with the Outland application either way) what if she will have an interview at embassy in Morocco?
I confirm I'm a Canadian citizen

Private health insurance would not insure her for delivery costs as she is already pregnant. That's a 100% loss for them. Is she already insured by private insurance?

Yes, you can try that. The interview might come up, but afaik they are holding online interviews currently due to the pandemic.

I would recommend that you sponsor your wife outland now.

You can apply for a TRV for your wife as well. Unfortunately processing times for TRVs are extremely long right now (estimated at around 210 days).

You cannot transfer an outland application to inland. If you get a TRV approved and travel to Canada, my recommendation would be to leave the application as outland rather than withdrawing the application and reapplying from scratch through inland.

The chances of TRV are relatively low especially since you are married and she is pregnant so I would be planning as though she gets refused for a TRV. If she gets approved that's get but the large majority are refused.

I think you are right
unfortunately no she is not registered for insurance
the best thing is to apply for sponsorship even if it takes a long time
