I am married to Canadian Citizen(wife) and have been living with her in BC for more than one and half year now. She sponsored me and applied for (Spouse)Family Class Immigration In Canada. We submitted the whole application with Fees etc. to save the processing time on 23rd of August 2005. We are expected to hear from CIC on Oct 31 (to get a client number etc.)if our calculations are not wrong. I am on student visa and completed one year of my studies in BSc In Computer Science and it was 2 year visa which is, to my concern, is about to expire soon. It is valid till 25th of Dec, 2005.
My Questions are:
1. Under the new policy http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/sponsor/faq-spouse.html, will I be able to stay in Canada after my visa expires or will I have to apply for renewal of study permit or visa ? Is it changed to some other kind of visa if your application is in process ?
2. As I am seriously considering to change the field of my study or at least changing my school which I will be able to persue better after getting my status, I would like to change my status to something else other than student. I know I cant apply for work permit now as I do not have job offer. Additionaly,it does not make sense to pay more than $6000 per semester now when I can pay less than half of it if I will get PR status. So my question is that in current conditions, is their any alternative to renewal of study permit? Any suggestions would be appreciated please.
3. Also is it possible to apply and qualify for SIN while my application is in process to support myself ? How long does it take usually until I will be able to work and to help support my wife and myself.
Answers or any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you

The only answer I can for sure give you, is that YES you can stay with your wife while awaiting the answer for your permanent residence application.
As far as the study visa/ SIN I´m not sure. You´d have to ask someone that knows about the study permits and such.
Goodluck!
maybe ask some of the experts at www.roadtocanada.com
tell em ejspet sent you! :D
