And now I have a question I'm sure has been answered before.
Ottawa has requested:
Ø Provide evidence of adequate financial arrangements for care and support (not involving social assistance) that are in place for yourself in Canada. This may include, but is not limited to, paystubs, employment letters, and tax documents including the most recent notice of assessment (NOA) for both you and your sponsor.
I can't work yet since my NAFTA visa was only good for one employer, and my husband is self-employed but only gets sporadic gigs due to the seasonal ebb and flow of the film industry. He is about to sit for a union permitee exam soon, which should lead to more steady work. His folks send us money to help out when the gigs are sparse, which is really kind. I may have a job lined up though; I recently had a fantastic interview for an office manager job (within walking distance of our house!) in anticipation of my PR being granted soon. I think I may be hired for this job, the owner was really excited to talk to me...funny thing: his wife's an immigration lawyer, can you believe it?!
In the meantime though, what do I send them? Just my husband's most recent invoices and a letter explaining our situation? I feel like Charlie Brown running up to kick the football, hoping that Lucy doesn't snatch it away at the last second.
