Hello Everyone,

I have been following this forum for quite some time. And I really appreciate folks out here for keeping the moral high.

I am in dilemma and was hoping I would get help here. With my latest IELTS results my CRS score would be 438. However, If I chose to include my wife in the application my score drops to 412. At the first sight, not including my wife as co-applicant seems to be the wise thing to do but the waiting period (12 to 18 months)for sponsored spouse Visa is giving me nightmares. Please advice the best case scenario for me.

Thanks in advance!!

Include your wife in the application, you will get ITA in few draws. At least it is my opinion, way easier to live with your spouse than without her for that long!

I think you should definitely include your wife in your application. It's better to wait for a few more draws and get an ITA with 412 ( early July the latest). Rather than get an ITA the very next draw and having to wait for quite a long while before she can join you in Canada.
# I hear Canada has some harsh winters. You wouldn't want to spend those alone. ;)
Just saying!!

Thank you for your advice. My whole family including my wife wants me to exclude her from the application. They say that surety of getting an ITA outweighs 12-18 months of separation. Although, they have a point, I believe moral support of your wife in an alien land is something that cannot be overlooked. Thanks for resonating my thoughts.

I have a UCI from my previous visit visa application but when I completed my EE profile, I entered it in but it is not showing after submitting. What might be the cause?

My spouse and I got the same advice from "well-meaning" people but we decided it was better to receive the ITA a few months later than to stay apart for more than a year.

Please consider everything that is important to you before making such a big decision. All the best to you.
