Hello, I’m currently living in Quebec, but due to several reasons I’m planning to reside in another province with my wife after her spousal sponsorship application is approved. (We got married abroad a few months ago.)
What would be the best way to approach this if I were to start the outland spousal sponsorship process from outside Canada in a few months since I intend to reside in her country while the application is in process? (I’ve never lived in another province and I’m a Canadian citizen if that helps.)
Since I will be unemployed abroad, I tried to think of ways to “prove intent” about settling in Canada and being financially capable. This is what I could come up with :
- Booking an Airbnb for a few weeks in the province we are planning to move to and explaining that it’s a temporary accommodation until we are able to sign a lease.
- Providing prints of apartment searches.
- It may negatively impact us if I mention that family in Quebec would be able to host us for a certain time (If we are moving to say.. Ontario or Alberta.) so I was thinking of just stating that they would help me out financially during my move and provide an affidavit.
- Registering with a recruitment agency and showing correspondance with them.
- Bank statement showing a few thousand dollars.
Does this sound sensible or am I missing something? Thanks
