Thanks for info on this. Yes, we have a house hunting/community trip coming up next month, are working a "punch-down" list ahead of selling our home (planning for Spring, 2025), actively downsizing (selling stuff on fb marketplace,ebay), plan to move with our 2 cats, have a letter from family...

Hi - great forum, lots of superb information! So thanks for putting this all together. My question today is about LoE addressing financial support since I (the Sponsor) am currently unemployed as I'm taking time off to write a book. We have substantial savings and investments to support, and I...

So far, I have just put down "AFTER ACCEPTANCE OF THIS SPONSORSHIP APPLICATION" - do you think I should add something like "estimated date Nov 1, 2025"? I feel putting a date down is somewhat presumptuous right at the time of application. Also when you say "you can add proof midway" -- do you...

When attaching documents such as Banking and other Financial statements to meet "Proof of Relationship", is it enough to show the first couple of pages (that has the names of the Sponsor and Primary Applicant on them together) or should every page of the financial statement be included? I ask...

Here is what I intend to use. I'm happy to hear opinions: - renewed (previously long) expired Canadian passport - reactivated dormant SIN - established Canadian bank account - established nexus account (for more frequent travel to Canada) - email exchange from real estate agent inquiring about a...

Great thanks.

I am unemployed (took time off to write a book) and living off substantial savings and investments. As I am the sponsor, do you think I should add a letter of explanation? It doesn’t specifically ask for financial info based on our case (just sponsoring spouse, no other family) and I’m not sure...

What did you decide to do? (And curious - what did you use for your proofs?) I'm thinking that "Proof of Intent to reside outside Quebec, if applicable" is the right spot. For proof, I'm intending: - established TD Bank Account in Canada - renewed (previously long expired) Canada Passport -...

Thanks! That’s much clearer.

Thanks - they are both over 22. So you’re suggesting NOT including them on the paperwork then? And adding a letter of explanation?

Hi, In preparing the outland sponsorship, we have a bit of a unique situation. The PA and I (the sponsor, Canadian citizen born in Canada) both each have an adult child that are (in one case likely, the other definitely) Canadian citizens from a previous marriage. In my case, I adopted my child...
