Hi Rajan & Tandy, thx a lot for your wishes.
Hi Bobby, Yes; I am having a skilled job here.
The SOWP applicant was my wife, from my side; I sent my Visa copy, landing doc copy & work permit copy, my latest 2 pay stubs, my canadian bank a/c statement of last 3 months and an Employment reference from my Employer which mentioned my job title, pay scale, duration of my contract etc.
From my wife's side, she submitted her highest degree certificate, our marriage certificate copy, her bank statement, she worked earlier in 2008 for 1 yr so submitted that offer letter & her pay stubs. since she didn't have much balance in her account, we submitted my Indian bank a/c statement along with nominee's name for my a/c i.e. my wife. Also since we were in Saudi Arabia before I came here; she submitted her Police clearance from saudi arabia along with english translation of the same.
About the funds, in my Canadian A/C I shown $7500 and Indian A/C I had about 4 lacs left since I came here. But when I consulted one of the lawyers before application; he mentioned tht if you have a skilled job in canada, the amount of funds doesn't really matter.
IMP: I didn't submit any property document since I didn't hv anything on my name.
Please share your timeline and how did you apply for your spouse.
