MARCH 2020 *Outland* Spousal Sponsorship
- Thread starter sk2020
- Start date
If you collect the Canada Emergency Response Benefit (CERB), you are still eligible to sponsor your spouse, parent, grandparent, child or other relative as long as you meet all of the requirements to be a sponsor.
The CERB is not considered social assistance. Collecting the CERB will not make you ineligible to sponsor.
When your under $1000 and that time what type of benefits we received during covid 19 that particular got by my partner.
What are you trying to say? Your GCMS notes are saying your partner took CERB and you have to pay it back?
We received covid 19 benefits and it counts under social assistant as per gcms notes

Employment Insurance and the CERB will not cause you to default
If the person you sponsored collects Employment Insurance or the CERB during the undertaking period, it will not cause you to default.
However, if the person you sponsored collects social assistance during the undertaking period, you have to repay the amount. If you do not, you will be in default of your undertaking.
First of all, we applied for CERB.
After that my wife had positive report of corona and then she applied under EI, due to corona positive report.
There's clearly some mistakes. Either correct yourself or get some clarity. Please don't confuse people!!!
Congrats!!!! Happy to see another US applicant from Ottawa VO get PPR. Our timelines are similar so praying I'm soon!
It’s taking like forever..... I sent mine since on the 8th of June till now no update
Technically it's not PPR yet though cause I can't use the portal because I'm not in Canada. I need further instructions. Nothing yet
No Sponsor Approval yet by IRCC since March 2020...and no updates what so ever. Where do we go? Who do we talk to? Is there anyone to help in Canada?
Oh gotcha! So you emailed them back saying you are in the US and are just waiting on further instructions?
