    Spousal sponsorship

    You have 30 days to send in proof of your sponsor's intent to move back to Canada when your PR is approved. This can be things like job offers, apartment leases, buying a property, etc. Or, if the sponsor has already moved back to Canada, you need to send in proof of that. As the letter says...

    WHV and Spousal Visa at the same time?

    ...to return. When you guys come to Canada, you need to update your addresses, so IRCC will see it. Once she is in Canada, the "intent to return" requirement is irrelevant. Yes, mention the WHV in the PR app if you have it by then. Many people, including myself and my partner, moved to...

    News From My MP's Office

    The only reason I see is related to the evidence you'll move once the visa is approved. However this doesn't means sponsorship is impossible (or that you're unable), it just means you need to provide enough hard evidence that you will return to live here. You're not getting the full / accurate...

    News From My MP's Office

    So, would you have any idea why an application to sponsor would be refused if none of the above excluding factors apply? I am a Canadian citizen who has demonstrated intent to return to Canada along with all the other documentation requested. We are just truly at a loss as to why they would...

    News From My MP's Office

    Yes, thank you. That is what we thought, but we've been having nothing but trouble with our application and then today my MP's office was informed that I cannot sponsor my husband as I live in the United States. We sent in everything we could to demonstrate intent, (re-settlement plan, letters...

    News From My MP's Office

    If you are a Canadian citizen, you do have the right to sponsor your spouse from outside Canada (eg the USA) but you MUST demonstrate "intent" to return to Canada permanently once PR is granted. Failure to do so will almost certainly result in a refusal...

    WHV and Spousal Visa at the same time?

    I'm going to give you a bit more to think about. There is no issue in applying for the WHV while a PR app is in process. They are separate apps and the WHV visa will not be refused because you have a sponsorship app in process or because you are married to a Canadian. And IRCC is not going to...

    WHV and Spousal Visa at the same time?

    You've given us a lot to think about, and definitely highlighted concerns we had. I figured my being married to a Canadian would be a huge red flag for any WHV and pretty much automatically disqualify me. It is confusing though because I've seen quite a few threads on here, some fairly recent...

    WHV and Spousal Visa at the same time?

    Applying for a WHV is not proof of intent to return - it's proof that you are using whichever visa you can find to get yourself to Canada. That's not a good evidence of planning to move. You can certainly apply for a WHV but if you submit the spousal sponsorship first, you will likely not be...

    WHV and Spousal Visa at the same time?

    My Canadian partner and I are currently gathering documents together to apply for a spousal visa. We live together in Europe, and I come from a visa-exempt country. We're hoping to apply for the spousal visa sometime next month. However my partner really misses Canada, and would like to move...

    common law partner sponsorship

    In order to qualify for common law, you need to live with your partner for at least 12 months continuously. It doesn't matter if it's outside of Canada. Have you and your common law partner been living together for at least a year? If yes (and you can prove it, of course), you qualify as common...

    How does this look? (Proof of Income Detailed and Intent to Return)

    Just curious how this looks. These are my detailed outlines (minus the proofs obviously that I'll attach to back up said claims) for Proof of Income and Intent to Return parts. I just wanna make sure these seem good enough or satisfactory to those who have done this before. We are outland US to...

    Do we qualify for conjugal partner? Applying outland

    Could you keep living with her until September 2019? If so, you could apply as common-law. Also, the only way to apply as inland is if you are both in Canada (which could mean you could apply as common-law or get married, if she is able to get a tourist visa to come to Canada). Otherwise, even...

    Canadian Citizen - Proof of intent to return

    I was curious if anyone else had experience proving their Canadian citizen sponsor living outside Canada has intent to return to Canada. In hindsight I should have asked this long ago before submitting, but more of a curiosity thing. I'd also love some feedback on if my submitted evidence is...

    NEW Thread for ACCRA Visa Office - Spousal Sponsorship Stream

    As a Canadian citizen you can sponsor him from Nigeria but you have to prove intent to return by showing a job offer, lease agreement, enrollment in school, things like that. I lived with my husband about 6 months into process and then moved back and settled back to Canada and were reunited...

    Student Visa & Dependent Work Permit Question

    Ok, perfect. We have been living together since August, and have dated for 1 year in Guatemala (very young) and since 2017 here. We have photos, and all kinds of support for that. Are you aware of how much we need to show in connection to Guatemala? Does she need to show proof of intent to...

    Student Visa & Dependent Work Permit Question

    If you are not married and have not cohabited for 12 consecutive months (to qualify as common-law), then IRCC considers that you are just dating, and nothing more. Therefore, you need to plan based on that.

My girlfriend and I are both graduate students from Guatemala, currently under student visa status in the U.S, we met 8 years ago in Guatemala, and have dated for the last 2 years here in the states. We will both graduate from our masters this...

    Spousal sponsorship outland, both living outside

    Outside is ok, as long as your sponsor can prove intent to return to Canada once PR is granted.
