To whom It may Concern;

I have applied for PR to come and live in Canada with my partner that is Canadian. The application processing times said it will take around 12 months to go through.

The issue I have is that my partners working visa for Australia ends in February, and my PR application might not come through till June. We don't want to live apart from each other. Is there any way I can go to Canada in February with her and work while I wait for the application to come through. So far I have passed all requirements just waiting for final result.

Thanks you for your time.

Hello,

Thank you for sharing your situation and question with us.

Unfortunately, we are unable to provide a definitive response regarding this question.

It is best that she contact the Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) Call Centre for some information specific to your situation.

You can contact them here:

1-888-242-2100 (In Canada Only)

We have had some of our users previously state that they have been able to contact IRCC from abroad by dialing 1 613 944 4000. Listen to the options to get to IRCC. Then you should be transferred to the IRCC Call Centre.

Please note though that some have previously reported that it did not work for them or that it is no longer working.

However, we suggest that you may want to give it a try.

Long distance charges will apply.

I hope this information is helpful. Please let us know if you have further questions and if there is any follow up to your question/situation.
