Yes he came to Canada with me, but we went the long route. I lived in JA with him for almost 2 years then we went to UK( I have dual citizenship with Finland) so it lets me work and live in UK and Rupert automatically was allowed to come (we went before the visas came into effect), then in UK i sent in a letter and our passports to Uk home office and they gave him a 5 year stay. After about a year we applyed for visitor visa to Canada in UK and came here. I applyed for him while in Canada. It took almost $2000CDN and 1 year from start to finish, although we waited almost 1 year before we started the process, but we are now finally thru that process and things are complete.
It was a tough haul, It was a total of 3 years that Rupert did not go "home" and that put some strain on our marriage for sure. But we got thru that and things are on the up and up! After his permenant residency came thru in June this year we applyed for a US visa and they gave him a 10 year multiple entry no questions asked! Easiest visa to get thats for sure, makes me laugh though cause if applying in Jamaica its hard to get the visas
