Hello Everyone. I am a new member here. I wanted to look for some tips before applying for my husband's inland spousal application. I will really appreciate if I can get some help. I am a female, Canadian citizen (26 years old) and my husband (27 years old) is on a study permit in Canada since Dec 2015. We got married in June 2016 but have known each other since April 2014. The only issue is that we do not live together. We live in different cities due to financial issues. Any helpful advise is appreciated. Thank you.

Hello Firefly18,

When you apply for spousal application does not hide anything from visa office. When you submit your application visa office give them lot of relationship proof like---

1. Bank join account

2. Insurance Beneficiary

3. Your money transfer receipt

4. Your call list like viber, whatsaap, hangsout, Fongo, magic jack or whatever you have

5. Your marriage, reception photo with family member and honeymoon photo

6. Friends and family supportive letter

7. Gift receipt and letter from your husband or email

If possible give your communication proof 2014 to 2016 it will help a lot. You will see the link. May be it will helpful for you---------------

All my dear friends:

Last night I saw an applicant post interview documents required letter. But in some part the applicant is confused. In my case I was confused about household registry or family book. That time I really don’t know what to do about it. That’s why I post the interview required documents part. I hope it will help all to bring which documents.

Take care
