Your case is different and better.
First of congratulation for your husband.
You were sponsoring him and i guess he had all the papers required and had a Canadian wife. Your case will be a home run most of the time. And you also fought tooth and nails to get everything...
For my wife... I am not a resident, she is missing a critical paper
@police certificate. Both cic agents told me she won't get a waiver and since other Haitian nationals got it, that makes her application weaker and more likely denied...
Here is the exact word "I will be honest with you, I won't say 0% because it can depend on the agent but it is very likely her application will be closed..." basically she made me understand to expect a denial". I think she repeated three times to expect a denial... Everything was right until they ask Haitian PCC.. She even ask me if she can find someone else in Haiti for her certificate because without it it's dead... I told her she already sent the letter and she told me it is pretty much over now her application will be closed because other haïtien are able to get the pcc
