I am the only one doing any of that work and am completely swamped for the
next ten weeks.  As a matter of interest, I am picking up a US / Canadian /
Mexican Income tax preparer at the airport at 10:45 PM tonight because after
spending $1,116 in the Sun and Province (including their internet advert),
in two weeks, I did not get a single possible application let alone a good
one.
And I "almost" had an immigration assistant last week but he went back to
his old company..
The following are the forms you need to get started with.  Let's work
together - you fill in the forms and I will tell you if they are right and
it will be cheaper, you will understand "everything" you have done and feel
in control of the situation.
Basically to sponsor her, you need to fill in the following paper work.  At
the moment, it is likely taking up to 30 months and is processed through
Mexico City.
You can start the process by going to the following sites and working
through as much and as many of the forms as you can.
