Hi I got a medical request letter for my wife in Pakistan. Do I need to provide a proof of relationship for my wife or is that just for children?

It’s only for minors. Bring a copy of Nikahnama if you’re worried.

Congratulations, I think this (Medical) is the biggest step in the process for Pakistani applicants.

Hello. I applied on December 21, 2023. I received a biometrics request on April 3. Tracker says April 25 sponsor eligibility in progress. Background check has been ongoing since I connected to the tracker in January. Sponsorship and I didn't even pass the eligibility. I didn't receive a medical request, background check is ongoing, biometrics is completed. Is it good or bad that the background check starts before eligibility?

Hi Everyone,

I'm a PR in Canada, and I sponsored PR for my wife. Since the spousal PR process takes nearly a year, I applied for a visitor visa for her, which is almost complete. I'm now looking to book her flight to Canada.

I've heard from others in similar situations that immigration officers sometimes ask to see a return ticket to avoid concerns about dual intent. However, dual intent is allowed in spousal cases, according to an announcement made in May 2023.

For example, someone who traveled to Toronto in January was asked the same question. She showed her AOR letter for the spousal visa to prove her dual intent and that she planned to settle.

My question is: should I book a return ticket and cancel it later just to be safe, or is it unnecessary? Please share your journey if you went through similar process.

Thanks in advance,
Ravi

Hi M10, firstly congrats on getting ecopr. I guess PPR is few days away.

I understand you submitted this application as Outland. Since PA had visitor status, did CIC process it as INLAND? Is PA still in Canada or returned to home country?
Can you pls share which VO was the application processed in?

Thank you :)
I am the PA and I've been living in Canada since I applied for my PR under family class (Although I went back to my home country for a month to see my family and friends while my PR application was reviewed!).
There is an option for Family Class "living in Canada", but still be able to apply OUTLAND.

  • PA living in Canada (as a visitor)
  • CIC process my application as OUTLAND
  • VO is Montreal
