Hi,
I am a canadian PR holder, who will be moving to BC by end of this year permanently. Recently I fell in love with a girl, who is a single mom with twin daughters.
Am serious and I wanted to marry her and adopt her kids.
Once I move to Canada, can I sponsor them immediately under family category?
Any feedback is appreciated.
Cheers

(in reply to: sponsoring wife and kids) Yes you can but you have to be IN Canada. She can stay overseas until the process is done.

(in reply to: sponsoring wife and kids) not true. U do not have to be in Canada u can sponsor them from abroad if you want but only if you plan to return and live in Canada at the time they will receive their PR. This is what I am doing as a canadian citizen working oversees.

(in reply to: sponsoring wife and kids) anonymous, read the post more carefully, and know your rules more clearly.
You as a CITIZEN have the option of an outside sponsorship. A permanent resident does not. A PR must reside in Canada to sponsor.

tax returns (in reply to: sponsoring wife and kids) Thanks Sharon for clarification. I have one more query:
When I move to Canada permanently this year, should I pay my tax returns for my previous years also. My PR card was issued in April´06.
Will it help in anyway? (or) I will just start working and pay taxes going forward?
Kindly throw some light on this.
Cheers
Asher

(in reply to: sponsoring wife and kids) you may have a challenge with your residency requirements!
