Hello,
My spouse and i became permanent residents recently. She stayed in Canada and I returned to the US to continue school, work, etc. Things have not been going too well between us, unfortunately... What happens to the PR status in the case of a divorce, and in the case when, after a divorce, the one person is in Canada and the other in another country?
Thank you.

I am assuming you both came to Canada under a skilled worker application?
Once landed, your PR status is not affected by divorce. However, both of you have an independent obligation to maintain your status. You must be residing in Canada 2/5 years otherwise you forfeit your PR.

Sharon, thanks.
Yes, we are in the skilled worker category. Just to confirm, even if we got divorced, if she stayed in Canada and completed all residency requirements, she can keep her PR, right? And that is regardless of the fact that I am the principal applicant and I might not complete the residency requirements?

M_J,
You have a concern for your future ex-wife´s PR status even during these troubled times. You seem to be a good man. Not intending to say that your wife is bad. I am not a family councellor. But I understand that divorce is the second worst thing that will happen in one´s married life. Just the way you have concern about the future of the person who you will probably never see in your remaining life if the divorce happens, did you also have concerns for her wishes, desires, needs etc. during the time of your marriage. I want you to understand that the problems you might have faced in this marriage will remain more or less the same if/when you remarry. The only thing that might change is the manner in which you will handle these issues. I do not intend to intervene in your private life but since you posted about your potential divorce on this forum, I thought I should give an advice. Its up to you to take it or leave it.
Marriage is a very hard thing to hold on to. There are 2 people involved from completely different families, brought up differently from each other. Things which offend one might be easy on the other. Things that are non issues to one could be life and death matters to the other.
My advice to you is to look into what YOU did to better the relationship rather than what your spouse did. Also remember that no man is perfect. There are goods and bads with everyone. You will never love everything in another person. Think about the goods and forgive the bads in a person. Unfortunately we work harder to keep our jobs with companies but discount our efforts to keep our jobs as spouses. After you think positively, decide what you think is best for you and do not look back.
Good luck!

Divorce vs Express entry/federal skill worker application (in reply to: how does divorce affect PR?)
I am applying for skill worker/federal skill worker/PR migration but my profile has not yet been submitted into the entry pool. My husband is a Canadian citizen and we got married outside of Canada but the marriage is ending. I need to apply for a divorce however I need to know if applying for a divorce now will affect the express entry application? If the divorce is done in Canada will it be acceptable for the express entry-PR application? Considering my profile has not yet been submitted, do I wait on the completion of divorce proceeding to submit express entry profile? Which of these scenarios would be best for my PR application?
