AFAIK, Student loans and missed payments don't affect sponsorship application. It is social assistance and EI you need to worry about.

No - it's only social assistance that's a problem - also being bankrupt. EI is fine and doesn't stop someone from sponsoring.

Employment Insurance, usually when people get lay off, get sick, they apply for EI. It is a temporary benefit program . But as Scylla pointed out EI is not an issue, so you are good.

No never applied for it, did 2 semesters and then went to Pakistan for an year. Didn't pay any OSAP installment thats it.

Thats a problem or not a problem? :/ Like OSAP is a problem?

Then you are totally fine. Missed payments might show up on credit history but that's another issue completely unrelated to CIC.

To clear things, student loan missed payments will not be a cause of denial of your sponsorship ;D

Hi, If I take a loan from a money mart, can I still sponsor my spouse?
