Something to consider: 1. Were you and your wife already married when she became a resident of Canada? 2. As mentioned above your wife cannot sponsor you when she is on welfare. 3. You have to apply from the country you are a citizen of, or resident of (minimum 1 year residency visa in...

I am not sure if they do forward everything. If you kept copies of what was sent before attach those and provide additional statements if you can. Better to give them more so they cannot delay or cause you problems.

My advice would be to send in your bank accounts showing substantial savings. The reason why NDVO is asking for your income information is to ensure you can support your family here, if you cant prove that you have savings/family financial support, and job prospects, they have a right to deny...

I should add, make sure you check all the forms for the version dates, as CIC often updates them and will not accept outdated forms. Happened to me too. I filled out all forms went to see my husband we signed all forms, the following month I came back to Canada and 2 of the forms were changed...

That's good, at least you will not encounter a residency issue. :) Just make sure you provide CIC with explanation/information and you will be ok.

There is not 1 simple answer, a lot of factors are taken into account by CIC. Although there is no income requirement for the sponsor who is sponsoring a spouse, with a $0 income application your husband should write an explanation letter that his residence in the Phillippines is temporary...

Marriages without rukhsati are viewed as fake marriages for immigration purposes. It is very rate the visa office will approve only nikkah marriage. Post in the main Islamabad thread and you will get more details.

with respect to the siblings that are not accompanying, you will only have to count them if they fall in the category of dependant children under CIC definition ie. are under 22, single ... etc. If the 4 siblings are over 22, than you would not count them. In this case if you are not married...

I believe there is a possibility of applying for a change. I am not very familiar best to post in temp foreign worker section on the forum and you will get real time answers from members who are/were in your situation. Start here...

If inland application is refused there is no appeal right.

the account can be explained as like Graihn said. SMS / Facebook / Skype messages - Just daily communication, since we were married we don't use facebook, We use SMS/Skype/Whatsapp/Viber and yes a lot of the conversations are random, but it shows continued communication (as you are living...

I don't have all the answers but can guide you to some information. 1. In place of Option C you can submit copies of saving accounts/family financial support letters and explanation that your spouse is a student and has not filed taxes. Although on a side note, your spouse should file taxes...

If I may say so, you have a solid case of evidence. :) Me and my spouse are legally married so we did not include any letters, but I did include: Marriage contract (religious), civil marriage certificate. Pictures from Dec 2011 - Present (including pictures from my engagement ceremony...

On a side note: What a lot of sponsors/applicants don't understand is that CIC can refuse a spousal application even if the relationship is genuine. IRPA was changed, to a 2 prong test meaning that they can refuse based on either one of the following: 1. relationship not genuine; OR 2...

Graihn, you should be ok, as you did not claim common law under your PR application before you applied for your second IEC. Additionally, you did not rush the application, you could have stretched your first round of co-habitation by a month or 2 on a visitor visa just to get the status, but...

Any employer that is willing to give you a job can apply for an LMO to HRDC, if the LMO is positive you send that in together with the offer to get a work permit (you may be able to take the offer and LMO to any Port of Entry and get a work permit issued at the border, I am not entirely sure...

This makes it a little tough, because if CIC is made aware of this they can decide that you are claiming common-law to acquire status (under section 4 of IRPA). So in your situation, best thing to do is join your finances, open a joint account now. Your girlfriend can still file a correction...

If your parents aren't here on a visit I would suggest to apply for the supervisa, so when the program re-opens again in 2015 you can have all documents signed and ready to go right away without delay. Yes it's only 11 months to go. It will go by so quickly. :)

You can stay in Canada as visitor and unfortunately cannot work on your expired WHV. To work, you would need to apply again and be accepted for a new WHV, or a work permit with and LMO.

Couple questions which may help you: 1. When you applied for IEC did you state you are in a common law relationship? or did you apply as being single? If you applied for IEC 2 years ago and it was the 2 year program should be ok either way, however if you applied 2 years ago for a 1 year IEC...
