SOWP: Proof of Communication and Relationship

[baryonix]

HI, I'm holding PGWP and my spouse is applying for SOWP from overseas.

IRCC has requested for Proof of communication and relationship in the last year. I'm thinking of providing screenshots of our chat messages.

A few questions:

1. How many pages should I screenshot? Because one year worth of chat is a lot
2. We don't use English with each other. Do I need to translate out text messages? If yes, can we translate ourselves? I feel it's a bit silly to send our chat messages to a professional translation service...
3. We also plan to show phone record as we call each other every day. How do I go about this?

Thank you

Yeah I attached the marriage certificate when I first submitted the application. I'm just not sure what they mean by proof of communication

Attach Social media messages like Good Morning, Love you in any language they need to know where you went together what you did together they don't want to sponsor someone who is just coming to Canada for the sake of Visa.

Yes in Printed PDF Form. I can give you example of my brother (He is married for like 6 years) He sent the following for Spouse Visa.

1) WhatsApp Messages for a Month (Screen shots)
2) Pictures in Mall/Restaurants
3) FB Messenger Chats
4) Nikah Nama (Marriage Certificate)
5)Tickets like Movies/Bus Rides/Plane Travel/Hotel/Boarding Pass

These detailed evidences will assist the case.

Hi,

Me and my husband applied for PGWP and SOWP extension respectively together from Canada. I got my visa for PGWP approved while they rejected his SOWP extension stating that i didnt have any job. and they asked to reapply with my job offer. Iam trying my best to get placed somewhere, meanwhile my doubt is can i apply for again for his restoration with my approved PGWP letter or i should compulsorily hold a job offer?
