emigrating to canada- question about mortgage and marriage sponsering?

Posted March 9th, 2011 by immigratecanada and filed in Immigration to Canada

Hi everyone, I really need some help and advice please!
I am engaged to a canadian citizen, I am english.
We are hoping to move back to Canada at some point in the near future.
Iv heard about sponsering- he sponsers me to stay in the country…how exactly does this work please???

Also, we would love to get our own house, probably through a mortgage. I have been trying to get as much info as possible and have found that alot of mortgage lenders wouldnt lend to us because I havent lived in Canada for long enough, is this true? How long do I need to be in the country to be eligable to get a mortgage?

Any help is so greatly appriciated x
