Hi Sotho,

It sounds very positive!

I have a quick question for you: how long did it take before you were able to link your application online? Did you receive any email from CIC before you linked your application? My wife applied on June 20th via VFS, we have not received any updates from CIC nor are we able to link the application online.
Hi,

It took me a month to link the application online. No, I had not received any email from CIC before linking application online. About linking paper application, yes for me it took a month, I would suggest try filling in the information with only mandatory fields and/or with different combinations. Try putting space in State and all.

Thanks.

Yesterday, my application was refused on the grounds that: “You did not provide sufficient documentation to demonstrate your financial, professional, personal ties to home country. Insufficient documentation to demonstrate that your spouse is enrolled full-time studies.”.

I think that I have provide and upload all document required from me during application: Application for Work Permit Made Outside of Canada; Family Information Form; Passport; Digital photo and Proof of Relationship. There was no other document required or information or explanations required from me.

However, are there more detailed or specific information about other documentation should I provide to meet the requirements, when I reapply.

what did you provide to show that your spouse is enrolled full-time in school? did you provide any other documents with your application besides what you stated above?
