Can we get our applications processed through Ottawa since I the Sponsor lives in Ottawa it would be easy for us to go in for an interview here where he could come stay with me vs New York. He is living in the US and will be until we get his PR status. Or does Ottawa only do inland applications...

Great Thanks!

Thanks! I know that I can still qualify for sponsorship I just worry that if he does lose his job and we get more money from ODSP that I have to pay it back. :(

I called the CRA I asked about it they said they can send it out through regular mail. It was actually pretty easy to get it compared to other things you just have to keep calling until you get through! I called 1-800-959-8281 took 3 tries to get through! Much easier than trying to get a person...

Thank you! So If I have everything ready to be sent in in September and I receive the background check in August or Sept I should be good! yay!

Oh so I send it all in? But I heard that background checks are only good for 90 days and it take 55 just to get accepted as a sponsor. Honestly I think they need to revamp this system it is messed up!

I am on ODSP. I get more money when my husband moves in with me. He will be working but if he gets laid off or whatever and I will end up receive more money from ODSP as he will be my dependent. Do I then owe the government that money back? Will I then be in default of the sponsorship agreement...

Also is it good for 90 days after receiving it or from the time it is sent in?

Is there such thing as too soon? We're scheduled to get his medical done August 8th 2014, I know it's good for only 12 months so when do they review it? I haven't even sent in my sponsorship application as we have to be married first and aren't getting married until August 21st 2014. The...

Thank you! I didn't know about the 90 day thing! So I want to get the back ground check in right before I send in his part of the application? After I am accepted as a sponsor?

Maybe I am blind or dumb or something else but I cannot figure out what exactly a police certificate is! It says on the Canada site it is from the FBI for US citizens but it also say 16 to 18 weeks and on the FBI site they call it Identity History Summary and say it takes like 30 days. Does any...

Looks like with ODSP we cannot have combined financials until he is a Canadian citizen or I will no longer qualify.

Thank you for all for the helpful information you have provided! I am wondering how to get a joint bank account with him though because my bank said he cannot be put on my account because he doesn't live in Canada. Are there special accounts? As for our financial dependence on each other I...

I am wondering about the medical evaluation for spousal sponsorship. Basically it might be easier for him to see a doctor while visiting Canada as there are several on the list in my city but the one's near him are not easy for him to get to. Is it okay for him to see the Doctor while here or...

I am wondering what sort of documentation I will need to prove our relationship is genuine. We are getting married in August have been romantically involved for a year this month, acquaintances for about a year prior. We are in love and we are getting married much earlier than we would like...
