Hey everyone,

Common question to who applied for SOWP :
Is it necessary to show paystubs of the spouse working in Canada or 6 months bank statement with sufficient funds is good enough?

It's best to also show source of the fund rather than just showing the funds in account. It adds to the credibility & genuineness.
Thanks

Thanks for the response, I wanted to submit paystubs as well. However, my company couldn't issue paystubs since August due to a software transition.

Hello guys
I was wondering if someone can guide me here. This is for my sister’s SOWP
Can she get upfront medical done while she’s waiting to gather other documents ? Does she require any letter to bring with her to hospital for medical?
And when is biometric request received usually? Howlong after application submitted?

Sure, she can go ahead to have upfront medical done while she’s waiting to gather other documents.
No letter is needed for an upfront medical.
Biometric request will be received as soon as submit your application given that you pay for application and biometrics same time.

Thank you so much
And do you think it’s a best idea to mention a “list” of their relationship proof like, photos, chat etc in letter of explanation? Not sure how to prepare one
