So I currently have an application in to sponsor my husband. But, now I am worndering if I am able to sponsor my 13 old cousin who is an orphan, both her parents die when she was around 6. I was there when she was as born and came to our home. I am planning to adopt her. Am I able to sponsor her while I have an application in for my husband? Who CIC have an issue since she is my mom sister daughter? Please advise, I love this kid a lot and would want to see her having a bright future.
Contact CIC and ask - it should be a good case to apply for.

The sponsor needs to show minimum income as per CIC policy to sponsor any minor orphan brother or sister but I'm not sure whether orphan minor cousin can be sponsored or not......

Income is definitely not a concern, however, it will take about 3-4 years so we are going down a different route. She just got a 5 years visitor visa and I am going to submit a an application for a student visa for her.

Thanks Hassan Bhai for your kind response. You've always been kind in your responses.

Interview depends on individual case scenario. If there's no red flag, interview most likely be waived.

You can send them again those dox plus any additional dox you may deem necessary or the sponsor may contact respective federal MP to know exactly what they want in support of the application.

Hello!

Thank you very much for all the information on this forum it has helped me a lot.

Me (sponsor) and my husband (PA) were scheduled for an interview in LA in August. I think they have some concerns about my marriage because I am divorced and I married my current husband really fast but our relationship is genuine 100%. My husband has a situation with his passport he has been trying to renew it for almost 8 months. We are from Venezuela and our country is going through a humanitarian crisis right now and it is out of our hands to get a new passport right now. My husband have the proof that he attend to the appointment to get his new passport and the Venezuelan consulate but He hasn't got it yet. So we will have to go to the interview with his expired passport because he does not have the new one and we don't know when he will get it. What do you think we should do? can they still conduct the interview with his expired passport? They already know that he has this situation and the still asked us for an interview.

Please help me. I will appreciate all information you can give me!

Thanks!

I do not think the expired passport will be a problem for the interview.

However, you husband will not get PR Visa into expired passport. So even if CIC could be ready to finish the process and issue the visa they will not do that till he gets his new passport.
