Hello All,
Hope you are doing well.
I have been deported (Voluntary Departure) from USA in the year 2017 due to college issue (Sham College).
Can my spouse apply for student visa now , as its been 5 years , should we mention about the deportation in application?

Note : There is no red mark on passport for either of us.

What are the chances --
1) If we mention about deportation
2) If we hide the details.

we hold better employment as of now.

What does your deportation have to do with her applying? She can apply and needs to show a strong profile.

If you are applying or part of the application:
1. Yes absolutely
2. Never hide deportation information

I'm assuming you are applying as her partner? Implications are that she might get the visa and you don't.
You'll have to mark this information on your application form and also explain in detail on your SOP.
Canada and USA share immigration information, so they will check and know that you have already been deported. If you lie you'll be rejected and probably never be allowed to enter Canada or USA, and probably any developed country as this is a serious offense.
Be aware that it's very unlikely to get your visa after deportation, but the only way to know for sure is if you apply. Just don't get your expectations high.

It's mandatory to mention the deportation.

1) It depends on the strength of your overall profile. There's always some possibility that your husband could be approved and your application may be refused. However you have no choice but to declare the deportation.
2) You'll be refused and most likely banned from Canada for 5 years for misrepresentation. Canada and the US share immigration information so Canada will find out very easily about the deportation.

You never mentioned that she was deported too. So yes, she must state that she was deported. No one can yell you her chances as she needs to show strong ties to country, funds, travel history, education advancement and career progression (spending tens of thousands of dollars and how it will give her a higher paying job and promoting in home country.)

Ah - that makes it more complicated. You need to declare both deportations. IRCC will know they happened. There's no way to hide this and hiding this will only lead to you being banned from Canada.

You want to make sure that your spouse's planned program of study in Canada is very strong. This means picking a top school. I would also strongly recommend you opt for university studies (not college). The program your spouse selects to study in Canada must make sense in light of previous education and work experience. If your spouse already has a Bachelor degree, then the planned studies in Canada should be a Master's. If your spouse already has a Master's, then the planned studies in Canada should be either another Master's or a PhD (preferred).

I applied for reinstatement and attended classes at another college, later it became too difficult to sustain, so requested VD.

we did opt for VD and came on the specified date.

Does voluntary departure comes under deportation?

Why did you opt for VD when you could have simply left the US if you could no longer cope?
