Anyone else out there want to take the time to outline how they put together their package? I found this to be a very helpful post and i'd love to read/see other examples of how people organized their application especially how they ordered the documents and how they sectioned parts off.

I too would like to know what kind of things they would be looking for in an affidavit. I'm thinking about getting a friend and family member to write an affidavit proving that we are in a relationship but i'm unsure what kinds of things they should mention. Anyone got any points from letters...

I had the same question. I have had 3 or more than 6 months between jobs. Do I have to state "Unemployed" in these gaps, or just carry on writing in the next box my next job? Can someone please explain the definition of "Gap" for us when filling out employment history?

I'd like to know the answer to this as well!

You won't be denied because you have no job or because you live with parents. I am in a similar situation. You just have to provide evidence on how you intend to support yourself and the applicant. Here are things that you can submit as additional evidence/information: - Write a cover letter...

I believe they are looking for additional proof that you are STILL living together since applying. So send anything and everything with both names/same address. Some out of the box ideas that I've heard used in this forum are: -Print bank statements showing use of joint account since applying...

Very Old thread I know but I have a question about the "married status" on the applicants side. I, the Sponsor, already updated my married status on my Canadian taxes back in 2016 when we were married, but we've just realized that my husband (who resides in the UK and is a British Citizen) never...

Just wondering how you made out with sending additional proof of cohabitation. What did the immigration consultant advise? What kind of things did you end up sending them? and What was the response from IRCC, was the additional proof you provided enough? Thanks for updating us

I would also like more details on this. Also, there's a section that asks how many years at this level and I want to know if you can include years of eduction even if you never completed the program or received a diploma/certificate? For example, I did 3 years of University but never graduated...

And what would I put for the monthly income for the short term jobs? Would I put the amount I made for the two weeks even if it's not monthly, like $800 and beside it write One Time Payment or should I just write N/A?

I'm wondering how best to fill out the Employment History on my Sponsorship Application. For the Past five years I have been: Unemployed (housewife) 2017-Present Self-Employed 2014-2016 Short Term Contract Jobs 2015 and 2016 (where I worked for a few days/weeks at a time for Elections Canada...

We'd love to know of any updates to your application/situation!!!! Haven't heard from Wayne72 for a while....hoping it's because everything turned out alright???? Co-habitation proof is a tricky subject so it's beneficial for us to learn about other's experiences with this.

Nice to hear that my situation isn't complicated! Thanks for the encouragement. I guess I'm a little nervous just because of how soon we will be arriving in Canada before we apply and how this means I won't have a job or income yet. I understand that income is not a requirement but it's always...

Thanks for the info. So if my husband gets his OWP and then later my sponsorship application is denied, that means he can still stay in Canada for the duration of the OWP? If that's true, that'd be great as we will then have time to reapply for PR.

I'm a Canadian Citizen applying to Sponsor my husband (UK Citizen) INLAND including an OWP. How long roughly does it take from the time they receive your application to the point when the Sponsor is approved/denied in an uncomplicated INLAND application? If the sponsor is NOT approved, I...

Yes, we're married. Ok I was worried I'd have to quickly set up Canadian bank accounts and such for proof of living in Canada before we applied. Phew! Wish you all the best of luck on your application. Please post again and let us know how you made out going through the border/immigration at...

Can I ask you a question about your plan? I'm in a similar situation where I'm sponsoring my husband from the UK and applying the INLAND route as soon as we arrive in Canada in September. He will also be entering as a visitor. I'm curious as to what kind of proof you are submitting under the...

Thanks for the encouragement Hurlabrick, I think "overthinking" is a bi-product of this immigration process haha Any thoughts/advice on Proof of Relationship section where it asks for proof of living together? We are applying INLAND but will only have been in Canada a few weeks so what kind of...

I know this is an old thread, but I'm curious as to how you got on with your attempt at opening a bank account in Canada. Did you manage to get one and if so where/how? I'm applying to sponsor my husband for Permanent Residency and he's having trouble establishing proof of address here in...

Good to know. Do you think that applying so soon after we arrive will be a red flag? I am currently compiling the application/documents here in the UK before we go to Canada in September. Once there we hope to submit the application right away. Will that look suspicious that he came through the...
