Hi everyone, I am a canadian applying for spousal sponsorship to sponsor my british husband. We did our spousal visa in UK and lived there for a few years until this year when we decided to come to canada , we are applying for INLAND and he is already here with me. Just got his record check in.... He has an assault charge on his record from 2005 , it was a group bar brawl that got out of control. No jail time but a fine. Nothing after or for 11 years , Then in 2016 i had a horrible sociopath for a boss who cheated me out of a bunch of money and my husband approached him at the bar and told him to pay me, it wasn't violent but he called the cops and said he was "threatened " (horrible man, used it as leverage to not pay me by saying it would effect our immigration so i should drop it all) , the police let it go as a caution since this guy has claimed he has been "assaulted " so many times they actually knew him! Unfortunately for us though it still has shown up on the police check as "caution" assault.
How should we proceed with our application? With a cover letter? Does anyone know what the outcome might be or how they look at cautions in canada?
Causing us a lot of stress.
