    what exactly qualifies as social assistance

    Hi: The application doesnt leave room for extras. There is a checkmark column that you need to check YES or NO (and I am looking it at it now). It asks if you are in receipt of social assistance other than disability. and you are not, at least in a way that Immigration Canada is totally...

    canceling sponsorship

    You can apply to OSAP (and by God I urge you to be very consciencious about spending it. It takes people at least 8-10 years to get rid of the debt!), however your husband is under the obligation to provide for you even if you are divorced, so you dont have to ask for Welfare social assistance...

    what exactly qualifies as social assistance

    They only ask for welfare social assistance as far as I am concerned and I have filled the application recently. Nowhere do they ask about housing charges or anything. Anyone else knows anything about subsidized housing?

    Medical Clarification

    Oh the humanity! Reading this post is quite upsetting! I shouldn't surprise me. Consulates and immigration officers are humans, capable of being mean and petty like everyone else. I suggest in any dealings you have with them in the future to be extra extra sweet and corteous as not to give them...

    Assembling evidence

    I think they don't want anything heavy, that adds poundage to an already heavy application and but if you only have something to just keep everything and organized together, it shouldn't be a problem.

    IMM 5490 concern

    That shouldnt be a problem. Make your application quite strong and that should not be a problem. Do write down that friends name though and have her information handy, but I doubt that will be an issue:) Good luck PS I have the same situation.

    Hello PMM (In-Canada Sponsorship)

    Assembling evidence

    Spiraling a book (made with your proof) with a table of contents works really nice. Make it nice and catchy. Something pleasant and organized. It has worked for me twice already.

    How long until my foreign wife can work?

    The above advice is RIGHT ON. I can only add that you really need to have a contingency plan, because it will be really hard to get a employer to sponsor her and the PR stuff takes a while in the BEST of cases. Realistically she wont be able to work legally for a while. I should know. my husband...

    Do I need to renewmy PR ?

    Oh I see. So the extension or renewal of the PR CARD is only about the card, about being proof of the Resdiency, NOT THE PERMANENT RESIDENCY itself that we are trying to Extend. Thanks for clarifying that. The alternative was scary!
