She got her Landing interview scheduled for 22nd of March,2019.

A quick question.....

Hello Everyone. I am a July 2018 Applicant. I am a PR and I sponsored my husband. But I am not working. Neither is my husband working. I had selected not employed while filling up the form. Immigration had asked me to send T4, paystubs and bank a/c statements. I have never used social assistance or any govt aid.

What should I do?

I am looking for a job. I had some previous savings that I used all this time. So, dont have savings as well. Is there any hope for me? Are there cases about applications being refused based on job and income?

Thank you for your reply.

I am thinking of showing the notifications from jobs i have applied to as well write a letter showing how we will support ourselves.

Have you ever heard spousal sponsorship refusal due to no job or income? Were there any cases in past?

Hi guys,

I have recieved my wife s landing interview email today from cic etobicoke.

We had our DM on both sides on feb 15 2019 , and recieved the interview email today March 4 2019. Was really surprised that we have recieved so fast. Just to share some important info : we have sent an email to CIC etobicoke office last week to provide us an early appointment ( Lol , we couldnt wait after the DM ) after reading on this forum that few ppl emailed the office and they recieved a response.
But honestly , we did the same on last tuesday from my wife s email and we didnt recieve any response for the email .
But , since we have a representative on our file , my rep called me this evening and told us the good news.

So it doesnt work all the time i believe only if emergencies , so its based on case to case.

Long story short : we finally at the end of this stressful wait !!

This forum helped me predict the DM , AIP , SA , medical requests , and finally the landing interviews by reading peoples updates on this forum . So i have decided to contribute to help many ppl just like i have benefited. I thank u all for ur wonderful patience and updates shared on this forum which helped ppl like me .. i just feel very thankful to all of u guys ..

My timeline:
Applied : March 12 2018
Medicals req: Dec 28 2018 ( 2 nd time requested due to medicals expired from the Visitor s visa did in dec 2017 )
Aip , SA, DM : Feb 15 2019
Interview letter : March 4 2019
Interview date : March 9 , 2019 etobicoke


Good luck to all of u guys who are waiting , ur next !! Hang in there !!
Congrats!

Hello!

How do you guys support yourselves financially? That is what you should show immigration. He is not working, who is? You? A relative is paying for your expenses?... It does not need to be exactly your husband income.
