Funds For spouse open work permit

[ARBAZPARMAR]

Hi,
I am on PGWP and have full time job which is NOC B. We are planning to apply for SOWP of my wife. We applied in 2021 but it got rejected stating that insufficient funds in my wife account and I ( student at that time) is not capable to support her stay. Now I have 8+ lacs in INR in my wife account in India and But I am confused how much fund I need to show in my Canadian account. Please help me out. Thanks in advance.

Yes you should be able to show that you’ll be able to support your family in Canada without government help. You can update your file in a few months after you’ve accumulated more savings but send in your application now with your current proof of savings for both you and your wife. Assume you have some savings even if not a lot.
