Hi all,
I am a PR currently residing in Canada. I am getting married in India this November and preparing to be able to apply for my wife's PR asap on returning to Canada. I have a couple of questions that I am struggling to find the answers to.
1) Do we need to update each other's names on our Indian passports in order to apply? (refer:
https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/do-we-need-to-update-passport-to-show-spouse-name.482508/page-2)
2) Are there any roadblocks I should anticipate that could prevent me from mailing my application day after I land? (I know this is a vague question but I am just hoping to gain from others' experience in this regard)
3) As a Canadian PR sponsoring my wife, do I need to show a certain amount of funds in my Canadian accounts or does proof of steady income suffice? I did read that spouse sponsorship is exempt from the low income rule but not sure how it affects the proof of funds requirement. Please advise.
