    **NOVEMBER 2016 - OUTLAND SPOUSAL APPLICANTS**

    This has been happening to a lot of us. I don't think it's anything to worry about.

    **NOVEMBER 2016 - OUTLAND SPOUSAL APPLICANTS**

    Same for me. I assume it's one of two things: (1) they don't keep the online system up to date (2) I passed the initial check for sponsor (not a criminal, not on welfare, etc.), but they haven't assessed my intent to return to Canada, as I'm living abroad - based on what I've read in different...

    Abbreviations

    Definitely another good place to look! I used this thread to help me before, but I found it a little annoying to search through such a long list when I really only ever saw 10-15 acronyms commonly being used.

    Sao Paulo BRA VO - 2016/17 Timeline

    Hi everyone! I've been reading on other threads that some visa offices don't send AOR2 and I'm just wondering what the case is with Sao Paulo. Does Sao Paulo send AOR2?

    Can I sponsor my husband with no income?

    Since there is no minimum income requirement, putting zero shouldn't prevent you from sponsoring, but I think it may make them look more closely at your spouse's income and/or your plans for resettlement. My husband and I have also been living together since before our marriage and also have...

    SPOUSE/COMMON-LAW QUESTIONNAIRE Q.12

    I originally wrote a sort of time line but then realized my husband wrote basically the same thing answering a question about the development of our relationship and thought it might be too repetitive so instead I wrote a letter along the lines of what our relationship means to me and the ways...

    Sponsoring my spouse who lives in South Africa

    I also have to prove my intent to return to Canada. I have none of the evidence suggested in the application (mortgage, rental agreement, job offer, etc.), so I submitted the following: - letter of good standing from my Canadian bank outlining all the accounts and products I have maintained...

    Are you applying inland or outland? We're applying outland and had to submit two document checklists. Document checklist - sponsor (IMM5491) and the region specific document checklist (IMM3908 - in our case).

    IMM5490E - Q1.

    wife can tarvel to canada without permission letter of her husband from pakistan

    I'm not sure I'm clear on what you're asking exactly, but in Canada women don't need their husband's permission to travel, so I don't think she would have a problem on the Canadian end.

    Can we talk about condition 51? (Discussion)

    I'm in favour of condition 51. I think that it deters some fraud, protects Canadian sponsors, and shouldn't be a problem for genuine relationships. But I agree that it is imperfect and needs to be reexamined. - Someone on this thread suggested there be an info session for the foreign spouse...
