Out of Status and Inland Sponsorship application

[YVR123]

Please help, can someone sponsor a spouse in Canada if you are in school at the moment and receiving loans and bursaries? Your spouse is here in Canada?

You are PR/citizen? If so you can show that you have enough source of income/savings to support you and your spouse. If you have support/free accomodation from your extended family, you can ask them to write a letter and state that in your application.

It's a real question to show that you two will not be needing social assistance while living in Canada.

Hi,
I wondering if you anyone can assist me. I have a friend who is out of status in Canada (originally came on a work permit) but is in a common law relationship for over three years and they have a kid together. His wife wants to file for his PR but the out of status part is confusing. Is this something they can file for on their own or do you recommend using a lawyer? I will be helping them with the application because I have done some outlands before but never done an inland plus out of status. I know there are a lot of threads with similar topics but some are dated. Any help would greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

Hey are you able to apply. Do you mind guiding me in a similar situation

Maybe get an immigration consultant to go over the details for you, this is your third or 20th time I’ve seen you saying this question in so many different ways and in different groups. I think you will 100% need the help of a professional and not just people on a forum based on your knowledge.

We did not start the process yet, I only posted in another thread in the forum and created a thread it get specific answers. Not sure why you say 20th time. The consultants costs a lot and not in a position to afford one right now.

You and your partner cannot come up with $500 to get a consultation and get professional answers to your questions?

The lawyer fees seems to be around 5000k to 6000k. I did do a consultation for 300 and they said it can be doable but did not provide much information. I am looking for ways to do it myself . I am expecting people to spoon feed me all the info. Just looking for people with similar experience so I can ask questions on how much proof is needed and what all needs to be included in the letters. The consultant did not share any information about it.

We have just done our inland application, now just waiting for eCOPR. My husband was out of status for 5 yrs. Very do-able without lawyer unless your friend has criminal history or pending removal order.

was your husband working while his pr was being processed while being out of status or he could not work?

I am planning to apply for work permit for my spouse who is out of status, can you please help me or give me guidance how to apply for that. I tried to explore the application through GC key account and IRCC portal account, but I am not able to find the correct option to apply for work permit. Can you please provide some guidance regarding this?

Hello, did you accomplish this? I'm currently in the same situation and was wondering what do I put for the current status expiration date?

When I try to apply from IRCC portal account, I get the following issue

When I go to "Apply to visit, study or work in Canada as a temporary resident" I come on the first page of the application. On the first page of application, there are 5 questions as follows;

1. I want to apply for a: (required)
study permit
transit visa or temporary special measures
visitor visa or super visa
work permit
not sure

2. What exactly do you want to apply for? (required)
I am the spouse, common law partner or dependent of an H-1B visa holder
Not sure

3. Select the province or territory where you plan to live or work (required)
If you don't know yet, select "unknown" from the list.

When I select Work permit in question#1 , then it prompts to select one of the options from Question#2. There are 2 options in question#2.

The first option of "I am the spouse, common law partner or dependent of an H-1B visa holder" does not apply to me
The second option of "Not sure", when I select this option, the button of "Save and continue" remains in gray color and does not let me to continue to the application. This button has to turn to dark blue for me to continue this application.

Please help if anybody has encountered this issue.

Please how were you able to resolve this issue?
