Hoping somebody can offer some advice.

I am sponsoring my common law partner for PR through the new OWP scheme (applied inland, AOR received April 22nd). I am Canadian and my partner is British. There is a possibility I will lose my job in the next few weeks and I am concerned about the impact that will have on the sponsorship and PR application we submitted. We both currently live in Canada.

If the worse case happens I will obviously be looking for work elsewhere quickly, but what impact can this have on my Girlfriends application?

Thanks in advance for any advice - really worried about this!

It will not have any impact as long as you don't access welfare or become bankrupt.

OK that's reassuring to hear, I wondered if my ability to sponsor my girlfriend was affected by my employment status.

Thanks
