There is no specific income requirement to sponsor a baby. However, if you have absolutely no income, immigration may be worried that you will end up on welfare with your family and they can refuse the application on those grounds.

amskmt said:Hi Leon, sorry that I couldn't reply you earlier..... just not enough time to have daily things done ! Anyways, My doubt is: On April 2014 I will be applying for my citizenship and I believe that it will take aprox. 1 year to become Citizen. So, lets say that I will become citizen on April 2015, my husband won't be able to meet his 2 year obligation since by that time he will only have acccumulated 6 months and his PR card will be expiring on July 2015. Can he still accumulate the time being with me outside Canada ( now that I become citizen ) even though his card is expired already ? Or just resign and sponsor him again in near future ?
Thank you so much Leon.... !
Shokria said:Hi Leon, it's me again. Now what if I submitted my health critical conditions to the visa office (I have had threatened abortion two times up till now and my dr recommends I shouldn't be flying at all until I give birth) so isn't there a way the visa office can extend the first landing time until I give birth? (my dead line was July 2013, while my due date is sept 2013). And if they did allow us to have ext of time, how will I enter ez the new born baby? Any method to include him on the applications?
fisharif said:Leon, I think many pepole are greatful to you for the clarity of yr replys
you wrote "he could enter Canada and as long as he is allowed to enter without getting reported for not meeting the residency obligation, he can stay in Canada" thsi is about entering befor the PR Expired
My Q is why get reported and when get reported? one month, 3 months return befor the PR Card Expire ?
What is y'r suggestion; return 6 months or one year before PRC Ex ... to evade getting reported by the Port entry immigration Officer
Best Regards
Faisal
Leon said:You should get the CBSA history too but they aren't always complete so if you find out when you want to apply to renew your PR that they have not registered all your entries for the past 5 years, it would be too late to take the pictures, unless you find a way to roll the odometer back![]()
